This has become a daily ritual.

Thursday

Been too hot to do much outside, heat indexes over 110. No thanks.

Spooked a vulture eating the snake carcass. Nearly pooped my pants.

I've managed to get my side yard and front 2 fields mowed.

Poisoned one side of the driveway. Got a new sprayer, 4 gallon backpack. I'm happy

Sweated more spraying weeds than mowing. The humidity is brutal

I'm still 9 years old

Fuck that

Snake

Done for the day

Happy Caturday

Friday 5

We had a mystery leak in the bathroom, plumber came and fixed it.

Dishwasher developed a leak, checked the drain, still leaked.

Bought a new dishwasher, they came to install it. The fitting for the water supply wasn't right. Called the plumber.

Been nibbling at the tree.

I need to cut the grass. Hopefully I'll get it cut tomorrow

Day called off due to rain.

Update

Before.

Now.

I worked until I was soaked.

This is where I'll start

Yup

Not easy to tell from the pic, but they were 2 trees that roorballed in opposite directions. Those root balls are 8 feet tall and at 10 to 12 feet wide

The mess

Water is way down now so ditches got overwhelmed but quickly drained it

Phuck

Major thunderstorm, 2 inches of rain in 45 minutes.

Major ditch over flows.

Neighbors big oak fell across new driveway and took out at least 2 of our trees

Mongo mess

Fire

Wed Nes Day

Benadryl knocked me out until near 10 this morning.

Once I got moving, caffeinated, I went to the gas station to invest in gas for the mower. Was pleased it was only 3.99.

Ground still too soft to mow.

I saw we had 3 limbs fall during the storms. I cleaned up one as it was blocking my main way to the property.

Then I bucked and hauled 7 trees.

Tomorrow is a burn day

The noose tightens

Hangman is coming

In tune with today's weather saga.

It appears we are being surrounded by thunderstorms
