Are your post set in naked earth??? I need to build a hay shed on the ranch in Scenic AZ. I know that I am over thinking the project; footings and trusses. I need to dumb it down and build it llike a Mexican.

I have a fucked up knee; doc took me off pain meds because they were fucking up my liver. Dam I am strugling to do stupid shit that I would normally just knock out.

I have an appointment this week with the ortho...I better get sent over to a surgeon or I am smashing his face!:flipoff::flipoff::flipoff::flipoff:
 
Met a brother fer lunch at the American legion.
Ordered a new door lock actuator fer the f150 since the drivers door wasnt locking. Sopost to arrive today and magicly the lock is work again.
Prob gonna hang out in the shop and tinker and listen to the radio tonight.
 
Picked up the wood to build a nice large workbench earlier this week. I'll be working on that while dodging rain showers. I'd go to the river or beach, but that is going to be a zoo not worth visiting.

Though I was going to have jury duty Tuesday, but got an email saying I am excused. Not sad about that at all.
 
We went to Costco and came home with a massive upright freezer this morning, just finished transfering all the stuff into it. Tomorrow is probably gonna be a lot of fall yard work and if it's cool enough a nice fire with some frosty beers, I also gotta get a washer dryer set and the old freezer cleaned up and listed for sale. If I can get it all done I'll be a happy do nothin' guy for the rest of the weekend.
 
Wrenching on 1ton ford starter headlights new batteries... start driving it.
And get a bunch of stuff changed out on suburban.. brake lines steering tires.. shocks finish tightening all bolts that aren't already .. and get transmission put together.. maybe back in it even. Idk that might be a bit too ambitious.. I do have a puppy to keep an eye on as well.:usa:
 
I painted shutters from our house this morning, goofed around with 4runner spring bushings, AllPro bushing bolts showed up yesterday so I might put it all back together Sunday. Tomorrow we have a big family dinner, that will go into the night, so no wrenching until Sunday. Monday I work in boiler house. :usa:
 
6 hours in the truck last night, just hit 12 hours in the motorhome today, but by damn we are gonna be in Moab soon. SLC traffic sucks ass. It's like they've never seen a truck with a boat on the side of the road before. Miles of stop and go for that shitshow. Was hoping to make it in time to go drive around tonight, but my knees are screaming from sitting so damn long...
