It was kind of a productive day. The sunshine really helped! I replaced 4 more southern window screens, which completes the south side windows. They were the worst followed by the west side which I haven’t done yet. I then went and picked up desiel fuel and checked on the cost for replacing the AC in the truck. Was quoted 900 to 1000 and that aligned with my online research. I also trust Brian and have been bringing the truck there for years. I’ll have him do the annual oil change while he has it. I then prepared the tractor for pond work by adding fuel, and adding air to the tires.
I finished off with gluing the water gutter downspout extension that routes water over 10ft from the house.

Completed the day day with a shower and will relax the rest of the day.
Oh yeah, its race day, maybe play the weekly races.

Wow. A month has passed as well as a bunch of things. I must admit, there has been a lot of laziness and excuses. I have exercised very little and need to get back in the groove.

I upgraded and setup 3 phones and 2 tablets.
I patched the dining room ceiling.
I spent a day digging the pond expansion.
Took 3 days to clean up the leaves at 417 in GT.
I cleaned up our shower by removing the extra grout on the tiles.
There has been many appointments and many more thru February.

Today I put leaf mulch around the trees on the farm.

The trip to Wisconsin was nice and interesting We made it back on Thursday (yesterday) Today we had Dr appointments and then we headednout to the farm. We no longer have any chickens! Sad but true.
The last 3 are not in the coop and there is a hole in the side run and another into the coop. I believe it was likely a possum.

Rest in peace.
I’m sorry I was not able to protect you through your life.
