You ever take a sip of coffee right before opening an email
like it’s protective armor? ... :coffee:

G'Day...

6°/14°C, dark, gray overcast in the morning, bright and sunny now... 🌤️

hope everyone is properly caffeinated... ☕
(and hasn't forgotten where he put his mug... while holding it...)

office, dull, borderline annoying... the usual...

new LiFePO4 is inbound... I've brought my GENIUS5 to test/charge it right here at the office...

last night ze GF checked the installation of her SENA for proper speaker position in relation to her ear channels...
seems to work, she popped/head-banged while playing tunes from her phone... at full blast... ;)
yeah, the oncoming Sat/Sun ride should do us good... :radleak:

made a VRF layout for an AMAZON facility, architect insist on indoor units with only 1.5kW/5.2BTU/h... :unsure:
how that's supposed to work with only 4 indoor units in an area like their OPS office, 150m²/1600ft² with 26 persons + office equipment & building loads is beyond me... 🫤

life, the rest and the universe... 😎
 
Good morning, and thanks for the coffee start, Martin.

37 with some snow showers rising to 45.

I had to content myself with half cup of black coffee, before we leave for the hospital.
I got a call from the podiatrist, yesterday, to make an appointment to follow up on my foot issue, and I'm going there the monday after my surgery follow-up. I've been expecting that I'll have to juggle things a bit.
Good news is that after my follow-up on May 1, I'll head over to the VA to have the staples removed.

Have a great day,
Steve
 
Good luck today Steve!

Morning all. Thanks Martin for the start-up.

-8 here and sunny, headed to +8 and cloudy.

Home for day 2 with the tweaked back. Compared to others here though, I shouldn't be complaining.

Hope everyone has a good day.

Obo.
 
Good morning everyone

Thanks for the coffee, Martin. @steve3b3 good luck on all the upcoming medicals. @Obo I hope your back recovers quickly.

It's 51°F and mostly cloudy in Rockville. Later it'll be 73 with chances (but less than 50/50) of scattered light rain showers.

This morning, after I finish my coffee, I'll apply the stain to the credenza / hutch thingy I'm refinishing, and set to work cleaning up the rest of the piece. But not until I'm done with my coffee. So it will be a while.

Stay safe and well everyone and tell your dear ones you love them. Do it today, NOW, for tomorrow may be too late.
 
Good morning, everyone. Thanks, Martin.

Beautiful blue sky, unadorned by clouds, and 50 degrees. With a high of 79, it should be perfect for doing something, but there’s also the chance of it being perfect for doing nothing. We’ll see.

Y'all Crack me up!
Happy Wednesday, thanks for the Nestle's Caffeine Martin.
I'm sorry for all you sick, lame and lazy types (old Navy slang for sailors who were excused for duty due to medical reasons)... I'm praying for the surgeries, injuries, and the wounded hearts.
WithOUT sarcasm, surprisingly enough.
My sister in Nashville had a birthday, so I called but had to leave a message.
When she later returned my call, I learned she was in GA at that sister's house, and our other sister from CT was also there.
I know, it's hard to keep up with all of that.
So CT had come down for a visit to our inherited farmland property in North AL, to meet with a Forest Service official tomorrow.
Apparently, if the land is reclassified as forest land, rather than its current "real estate" designation, we can save hundreds of dollars per year in property taxes.
It's only raw land now, but heavily wooded.
Used to be used for our grandad's dairy herd for grazing.
All that to say I'm taking tomorrow off, and will meet her and the Forestry guy to see what's up.
I haven't been up to the old farm in two years, and I haven't seen Karen since that time.
Uninteresting detail... there were four of us offspring, I'm the oldest, and Karen is the youngest sister.
I should say, there ARE four of us, as we're all still kickin'.
Our parents and their parents are all gone now.
But I do remember lots of good times on the farm when I was a kid. Unlike lots of young kids, I know where milk really comes from, as well as steak, burgers, sausage, eggs, chicken breasts, and bacon.
And vegetables.
And ...horse sh!t.
Fortunately, though, I never had to eat horse sh!t.
Just so you know.
And farm life has contributed much to our English language.
“You reap what you sow.”
"Don't count your chickens before they're hatched."
Even racy ones:
"Useless as tits on a bull".
You can think of many others, I'm sure.
