Broke out the telescoping pressure washer wand today. What a joke. When it’s fully extended it’s very floppy and hard to control making it impossible to accurately pressure wash anything.

Got most of the front of the house washed. Need to get an extension for the normal wand

After Church, security at church, home to take care of sick wife, business meeting at church, live Nativity at church I spent some time on the internet and found this

That thing's more sophisticated than I can handle!

Has two cockpits!

I'd be stumped right there!

Got the Dmax back up. Ended up being a CV that didn't like the angle and was binding. Dropped the TB 2 turns to help a little.

Rattle was a "captured" pipe hanger that was not captured anymore.

Realized I can't remember when it got a good greasing, so that was handled.

Tomorrow, skid tires after I clean up the leaves its been raining for the last week.

Took the boat over to storage. Didn't want to but parking is getting to be an issue here with PGE tearing up the street.

On the countdown to the red eye to Cancun.
Going to be a wired Christmas for us this year.
Just me and the boss.
Had Christmas with our son and his wife night before last.

Merry Christmas to all y’all as I may go offline for a couple weeks and truly unwind.

I thought it was an ok movie, wouldn’t see it or purchase it.
A part that bothered me with out giving away the story, One moment the main character Ray is levitating with rocks and has the power to hold spaceships captive. Next moment she needs to free climb a wall ? Why not levitate to the top?
Lots of others I didn’t like but it’s now a Disney flux and messed up like all of theirs

Need to go put the little three wheeler together today so it’s ready to bring home for Christmas morning,

With no details out son couldn’t say if he like it or not...
Mixed feelings and wasn’t going to commit either way.

Which says a lot from him.

Safely tucked away at our resort. Long old night on the red eye. Tired. Hangry. Thirsty.
Oh, and no end to the margaritas cervecas and food.
On a chair by the pool debating a nap.

Life is good.

Good stuff. Happy for you Bobby. Sam. Thanks for having one for me.. I’ll take it from here...

JR, I AM smiling...lol..

Hobie, top notch work on both pieces.

After bible student, I spent most of the day replacing light switches. Had the old style and went with the decora style to match the Leviton Smart WiFi switches. Now when I get to the hide....Er..um...resort....I can tap Alexa on my phone and say I’m home, and all the front and rear porch lights,security lights and the kitchen lights all come on.

Also got a 5200 lumen led flood lamp that I want to mount 30 ft. Up in the tree on the side of the drive to light up the front of the shop and the drive/parking area. Gotta get my climbing gear out tomorrow.

Then I made beef and chicken fajitas on the flat top along with onions and peppers. First time doing it that way. Really liked it. Cut the meat into thin strips and marinated in cumin, cayenne, garlic and onion powder, black pepper, Teriyaki and lime juice for a few hours before hitting a super hot flat top. Done in 5 minutes..

Now sitting by the fire with some Bookers....

Leaving the shop tonight at 9:00 to momma callin, WEHAVE a MOUSE !!

Imagine that, right next to the 5, 5 gallon buckets of dog food. I assumed he would have been much larger considering his high protein food source. Momma took the photo from standing on a bucket. He met his demise about 10 with a broom and a large qty of glue pads. Dog room cleaned and sterilized from top to bottom and all dog food crumbs will be cleaned weekly.

Bigger question now dave.....how did he get into the house? How much damage did he do while making his entrance?

TexasRedNeck · « **Reply #11537 on:** December 24, 2019, 08:15:20 AM »

Let’s hope it was a he and not a she.

I put bait stations along the foundation wall outside the house one on each side and a few around the shop. Seems to help

I have but some traps by the garage areas.

I am not sure how he got in the house. My first thought is looking for warmth but with a field on each side of my house and a large barn behind I am not suppressed to have a mouse. Like you said I hope I had A Mouse. Not a whole pile of them.

Need to finish our yard and maybe an outside car that gets fed once in awhile

Got a few things done today. Got the climbing gear out and climbed 33 feet into a tree to put a 5200

lumen LED floodlight. Then I washed the bus then I took all the leaves and Pineneedles off the roof and the gutters blew them into a row and burned them and then killed a copperhead

Had that have been me, the rake handle would not have been long enough nor the knife large enough. I hate snakes, maybe pinned him down with a truck tire and then let him die from lack of food and water.

Snakes are the reason hand grenades were invented, right?
