Glad you are doing well Lyn and M had a day off! Yay! Tammy is digging out so i felt that posting a pic of our waterfront due to high tides would have been in poor taste yesterday.

We didn't take the fire pit out to the driveway for Halloween this year but we had plenty of kids at the door. Good fun.

Today was fan day...a couple hours this morning and now I can blow the fireplace heat back down. It works great too.

Kerry has been without her gas cooktop for a week. It turns out that 20 yr old CSST covers expand so you can't make a new gas joint. Who knew? I have a coil of pipe coming...but she's a trooper though.

Happy Halloween everyone!

This is from a few pages back, but , Cathy -
I'm going through something similar for ordering something online pick up in store. It was the wrong car part and I know I ordered the right one. I grew up with mechanics and know how to order the correct car part. Of course it was wrong and to get the right one was more than double the price in store. The store is a major chain. Are they seriously allowing their online presence to be a total fiasco? Yep
Please tell us who it is so we can be wary of them.

That's messed up N. Do you suppose they will outlaw busses or knives? So sad.

So today I get up at whatever time, take a shower to get ready for the day. I pulled all the 10 gauge wire out i had installed for my soon to get hot tub then ran the new #6 direct bury cable. Whew i was beat so i took a shower. It was 1pm. I come downstairs and i can hear the kitchen sink draining. It's not really draining but transmitting the sounds from the stopped up main sewer dripping into the septic tank. Apparently Kerry and Cottonelle don't get along! So did my deck guys cover my access cover? I get the shovel and sure enough it's just under the screened in porch inside the lattice work. But it's reachable so I pull the cover clean out the top and we're good to go. I put the cover on and come back in....and took another shower! LOL I'm clean...really really clean!

Dear Ray,

I saw the second video of Ms Sully, Opo and the lawnmower man and here's what it looks like:

After struggling with both tortoises the gentleman manages to escape into Ms Sully's enclosure after slamming the gate on Opo. He doesn't appear to do much in Ms Sully's enclosure as he is desperate to get out!

Natrah 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

PS: He seems to have a wrestling match with the two of them.

The funny thing N is that Opo and MS sully both weigh too much to pick up! "Coaxing" is the word! LOL

Ok guys...stupidity in spades! Kerry ordered shades for the screened porch. 6 shades, all from the same place on Amazon. Look at the pic. EACH shade came in its own massive box. 4 would have fit in 1 box. AI still has a lot of holes in it! Lmao20251104_142554.jpg

Saw Dr chiro today and are making arrangements for a funeral next week out in Virginia. Kerry's cousin was diagnosed in July...so sad. 63 yrs old.

Changing gears....
Turns out for those wondering...rolling a joint is just like riding a bike! Who knew? 50 yrs since the last time I rolled one. They gave me papers with my order so for fun i gave it a shot...came out near perfect, a little too tight. Hmm., the stuff we learn when we get old isn't the stuff i thought I'd learn. LOL

As much as Kerry and most people I know don't want to, Scot Toily paper is the cure for that. And the only one I know of that doesn't use corn 🌽 🌽 husks so 😭

He took over the lawn care business. From our previous guy. So I haven't talked to him yet. I don't even know his name. Hopefully I catch up to him this Thursday. But it is crazy how Ms.Sully and Opo worked together.
