so I went out to the store today, I can't believe the disrespectful behavior, I was waiting for a funeral procession yes it was a mile long with firemen policemen etc pretty sure it was for one of our officers that died from the covid-19 however people were just cutting in front of it and cutting them off and getting in between them sorry to post but this just made me so angry, I need to see how many other people feel like this is so above the normal disrespectful behavior,
Im prob wrong person to answer( i get angry if someone cuts me off.. nvermind a funeral! But yeah.. that deserves a beat down

Right, I know people have become more self involved over the years, but this was way too much!! If you're parents didn't teach them , then social normalcy should have, at least in my opinion,

Happy Tuesday all.

Large storm blowing in. Got some lawn edging & outside trimming done & then the rains & winds arrived. Sooooo, time to head downstairs & goof off a bit.

I still have plenty of Cherry limbs left in my shed from my by the road find a few weeks back. Ive made a few things, but how many little objects & tea lights does one need! Ive been taking the limbs and shaping on the lathe into little “blanks” (think rolling pin size) for some future fun.

Yesterday decided to find a larger piece & turn a little bee/bird house. Didnt have a real plan, but just went with the flow.

It’s not quite done yet, but it kind of represents a lil thatched cottage. I’ll permanently attach the roof, attach a hanger, give it a light coat of stain to help weatherize it. Drill a few drainage holes. We have plenty of bees, maybe a solitary bee will take up residence.

On the lathe being turned. Entrance Hole drilled. Roof Fitted

Roof is still loosely fitted. Once I squeeze it in to the body, that’s it.

Seeing this reminded me that I want some bat houses and owl houses. I also wouldn't mind having some of those tube structures for mason bees.
