Spent the day out in the sun cutting plywood for a workbench. I forgot sun screen. The next few days are gonna be tomato red and painful. Got all of the cuts that needed the circular saw done, except the ones to flush the top's edges. So tomorrow I'll drag out the table saw and miter saw to make jigs and the frame. Now it is pizza time.
 
In. Wounded my pole saw pruning some trees for mom, she wouldn't let me prune them my way (one cut about 12" off the ground). Cutting shit too big for the saw, limb grabbed it on the way down and smashed the extendo piece in the middle. Brought my big vise home and painted it, working on making a stand for that.
 
Ran tons of errands. Did lots of yard work. Having some running issues with our zero turn. Troubleshoot that, appears to be a coil on the Kawasaki twin is dying. Ordered that up.

The boy bought himself a Triumph street bike. We dorked with that. He took it for a burn, we never thought to check the gas in it. He promptly ran out lol.

Got him some and he rode it home. We worked on his tiny house trailer project some more doing rot repair and laying out a couple walls.

Wife got home and informed me we're watching the grand daughter for the night. Dropped everything and got cleaned up. I'm going soft in my old age I guess, can't get enough of this kid. Wife said its cause I missed out on a lot with our kids. Dunno but I genuinely love having this kid here.

I'm gonna say not in.
 
In. About to crash.
Sold a load of firewood, and set some walls for a garage with the tractor today. Made the payment in one days work, not terrible.

Been up since three this AM. Had work stuff this morning. Something poked a hole in the sidewall of a tire about 2 hours from home. Stuck a plug and some fix a flat in it. Tried to go to the local discount tire, but it was packed. So, went and did my work and drove the 2.5 hours home with it plugged. Our local discount tire was also packed, but I got another tire ordered. The plug was coming out as I left there for home. Pulled that plug and put two in it when I got home. Seems fine for now. Not much else after that. We took the kids swimming and had supper with the in-laws. More work stuff tomorrow before it starts raining again.
 
In. Cleaned up the garbage around the new house. Lazy as subs can't take their trash with them.

I told the contractor to let plumber go, I will install the rest of the pipes. They can't use a drill and the correct drill bits. They just use a hammer.

I will adding a fire wall tomorrow. I want to separate the carport area from the attic.

Woke up early again this morning with muscle spasms. Drank coffee and surfed the web until it was time to head for town to teach another Ham radio class.

We had a race meeting after class to go over our radio plan for Monday's Ham radio coverage.

Took my friend Hank out for a burger on the way home.

Got home in a driving rain storm. Had to sit in the car for 20 minutes until it slowed down enough to get out and go in the house.

Let Sam out then took a 45 minute power nap.

Having a Key Lime soda and surfing the web now.
