Good morning to you all.

[ms_tapestry]

Your list forgot to include someone to do the actual painting for you!

That's it. There is no painter on the list. I knew something obvious was missing.I have spent the last nine hours working on that room. . .my tired is hanging out. . .:123:

[ms_tapestry]

Morning y'all. . . the ceiling and the top half of the walls are done. . . now the bottom half and the trim. . . and I haven't even started on the bathroom. . .that may have to wait until another day. . . I would really like to ride some today, but I want to get the room finished! One thing I have discovered. . .beer tastes good after you've been painting all day. :Angel_anim:

Good morning. Looks like a beautiful day ahead before the 50% chance of rain starts up (50% down here is a guarantee it will be wet). First full 5 day work week since Christmas for me. This is gonna suck.

[polarbear]

Mornin all, took me awhile to get to work this a.m. Thunder sleet this mornin about 4:00 kept me awake and the roads were a sheet of ice and corn. 15 degrees but a high in the upper thirties is expected.

Another front on the way down here. Probably be tonight we'll have to listen to what sounds like a mortar attack.

Glad I made it home about 2! The wind is at 25 with some gusts well into the 40's and torrential rain and some fairly close lightning strikes.
I just looked out on the deck and saw the rain guage go from 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 in about 20 seconds. Visibility is about 50 feet. No tornado warnings yet and it looks like for now, the worst part of this is out in the 'glades to the west. The gators will love it.

We have tornado warnings to the south of me.

Weren't y'all in a drought this time last last year?

We have tornado warnings to the south of me.I think tornados move north don't they? Be safe!

[Rewind]

They're actually south and east so it should miss us.

[ErnieS]

We still are. Okeechobee is still 4.5 feet below normal and we're under severe water restrictions.
Looks like We're pretty much out of the woods for tonight. Most everything seems to be tracking to the north and west of us. Cape Canaveral/Daytona and Orlando are in for some heavy weather though by the looks of it.

[kd5cqt]

It's prety much all over here. A few funnel clouds passed north of the house, but nothing of consequence. Lots of rain and enough lightning to make me disconnect my antennas for a while. I guess now we just watch it get cooler for a few days.

[ErnieS]

We have another system headed here for tomorrow. Good for the drought but not so much for riding or working outside.

[ms_tapestry]

Mornin' y'all. . .34 on it's way to a high of 71. . .no rain. :Angel_anim:

[Stoney61]

Mornin' all. 12 on it's way to 17..no rain here either.:Waving:

[fastsporty77]

No bad storms right here, so we missed the bullet so to speak.

Lots of needed rain too.

Oh and a good morning All.

[ErnieS]

Bout the same here FS. After all the hype, there's just a few twigs on the lawn. We got 3" of rain since 2 PM yesterday and there's more of the same in store for us today before it clears up tomorrow PM.

[polarbear]

Mornin all, 15 here this morning with no rain. 54 for a high possible, and still no rain. Tonight starting at midnight, chance of snow with accumulations of around 2 inches or so. I know that doesn't seem like much, but it is enough for the state and county to run their little trucks with that sluice crap they spray on the roads. I think I would rather have rain and warmer temps compared to the amount of snow days we've had.:wtf:


Everyone have a nice day.

[d190]

I suppose since this one is called President's Day...MS will celebrate it and give you hardworking school folks a 3 dayer?????

[ErnieS]

No day off here for me, but no school makes getting anywhere a lot quicker. It seems like there is a school every 1/2 mile down here and each one has a 1/4 mile, strictly enforced 15 mph school zone. At fines ranging from $105.50 to $555.50, I'd bet that school zone infractions account for $50,000/day in revenue for the county.
Anyway, it's 61 on the way to 82 mostly sunny and 20% chance of rain. Y'all have a great day!

[polarbear]

Mornin all, glad to see everybody so wide awake this a.m. Whoever is passing the sinus drip and coughing around better stop now, I didn't get much sleep last night with all the hacking I was doing. It is Friday, so my mood will get better during the day.:HaHaHa:

Nah, we swap that for Mardi Gras. Already had my days off. Nothing on the horizon until good Friday, but the kicker is we have a full week after that, a week off for Spring Break, two weeks back and then the seniors are turned loose on society followed by the rest of the kiddies a week after that.

Today: Sunny to partly cloudy. Warm. High around 85F. Winds SSE at 10 to 15 mph.

[ErnieS]

About half a mug so far here too.The wife and granddaughter are heading out to the Florida Renaissance Festival in an hour or so and I'm taking the day off. I might put on a few miles, but mostly, I need a day of nothing to do. The 3 of us went to the Festival yesterday, all in period clothing. Because the 15 year old granddaughter was with us, we took the car, but usually we take the bike. We do get some looks then, Sam in all her queenly finery and me in balloon sleeves, knee high boots, gold embroidered vest with a sword on my back.

[txhawg]

LOL! That has to a sight to see! I guess the cops let the sword thing slide because they either know where you're headed or just plain nuts.

[Screamin' Eagle]

Morning y'all......

[ErnieS]

LOL! That has to a sight to see! I guess the cops let the sword thing slide because they either know where you're headed or just plain nuts. Oh yeah! There's a special area for scooter parking. There's usually 150 or so bikes so cops are expecting swords and battle axes. Anyone who's dressed strange, carrying an edge weapon gets a pass for the month the festival runs.
They tie down swords and axes with tie wraps since the guy with the double bladed axe when off a few years back. He hacked a guy up pretty good.

Mornin all, okay who left the freezer door open again. 17 cold f'n degrees here this morning with winds about 30 mph outa the north. :wtf: Temps will only get to around 24 this afternoon with rain, snow, sleet, and whatever other crap the big guy upstairs has to throw at us by this evening. I am truly getting tired of this and I know it's supposed to be winter but, I guess I got spoiled last year with at lease a few riding days every month. If it wasn't for working on the shovelhead, I'd be getting a real bad case of cabin fever.:1079:


Every one have a nice day.

Good morning Ladies and Gents!!!!

[ErnieS]

All the good morning wishes failed me today. I got to my first job just before 10. I knew I was installing a softener in a codo so I was expecting trouble. I go in to look at the job, and the supply is 3/4" CPVC. I don't stock CPVC, so it's off to Home Depot for 40" of pipe and assorted fittings. I get everything I need and go to the check out where the corporate card is declined. I had $12 on me so I call the office. The service manager has left for a dentist appointment where she was to have 2 impacted wisdom teeth extracted. The yard boss (dumber that a shovel) is answering phones and the boss is out of the office. It took an hour and a half to get a credit authorization faxed over, I grab my stuff and head for the van. The rear right tire is going flat and the rim is 2" off the ground. I climb under the truck and try to remove the spare. The big wing nut that holds it up against the floor of the van is rusted solid. I beat on it with a 3 pounder for a while but it won't budge. I headed back to the job and put some air in the tire at a station. I got 40 lbs in it before the compressor times out. I had no more quarters, so I left for the job. The softener is going on a shelf above the washing machine to the left in a 3' x 8' laundry room and the shut off for the condo unit is above the dryer, but below the water heater on the opposite wall. I finally find the maintenance shop and ask which side of the shut off valve is street and which is house. He actually had the info and better yet he was right. Cutting on the wrong side would be big trouble in a condo unit if you know what I mean.
I moved the washer and dryer out to the dining room and go to work. I run my pipe down one wall across the back wall of the laundry room and use a hole saw to cut 2 holes for the pipe up through 2 plywood shelves. and finish plumbing up the softener.
Besides the resin that attracts the hardness from the water, a softener contains activated charcoal to remove chlorine taste. When you first run water through a new softener. you need to bleed off a hundred gallons or so to wash out the carbon dust. In a condo, that means you pull the strainer from the kitchen sink faucet or the tub and let the water run for 15 or 20 minutes until it runs clear. You get black spots all over everything so you need to spend another 10 minutes cleaning up the mess.
OK I get the sink and tub cleaned but the water flow to the kitchen sink is very bad. This particular faucet has a flow restrictor in the flex line that goes to the pull out spout. I climb under the sink and fix that. Good flow, but I've wasted another 20 minutes
I go back to the softener to hook up the salt tank and see a friggin LEAK. One drop/30 seconds, but still a leak. I cut out the bad fitting and repaired it. (Another half hour gone.)
What I had expected to see for my drain was in stead, some odd ball flex pipe that they use in mobile homes. It's real cheap crap that is hard to find fittings for so I can't hook up the drain.
By this time, it's almost 5 and I'm not going to be able to hit the plumbing supply house for fittings and I still have 2 or 3 hours of work so I pack up.
For the last hour or so, I've noticed a long forgotten aroma in the house. The owner's son, who is alone in the house ( maybe 23 or 24 years old) has been smoking some very potent herb and is now passed out in his bedroom. I finally wake him to tell him what's going on and he just can't comprehend what I'm saying.
I've now got 8 hours in a job that should take 3 (I get paid by the job) and I have to go back.
I head out to the truck and the rim is now barely an inch off the pavement. I nursed it to a gas station and changed a dollar after an argument with the idiot behind the counter and got 40 of the 60 lbs I need in it before the compressor timed out again.
I made it back to the yard but it ain't going nowhere by morning and I have a full day set up. Today, I hate my job!

[Hodawwg]

Sounds like a crappy today. Hope tomorrow is better for ya

It's got to be. but it's not likely to get a lot better tomorrow. Friday should be good though.

Good morning. Great day to be a duck down here. It's going to be wet all day and probably all night the way it is raining outside. Missed the eclipse with all of that overcast.

[aintgotnun]

Mornin folks

I actually got to see most of the eclipse. It was cloudy until about 20 minutes after the start and then clear all the way through :D I dragged out the small telescope and even let my daughters stay up to watch it all the way through. Saturn is even tilted just enough to get a bit of seperation in the rings. All in all a good evening.

Now this morning........... Friggin misty crappy and cold.

Y'all have a good'n!

Not all are horrible Kenny. At a single family home, the softener goes outside, next to the building and is usually pretty straight forward. I can easily do 2 jobs in a day and make a decent living.
I had a job last week that had an existing softener and I replaced it with a new unit in 45 minutes. $110 in my pocket.
The job I was on the last 2 days took me 13 hours and will pay about $250 with the carpentry and removal and reinstallation.
Well it's back for more punishment. It's sunny and 73 on the way to 85. It's supposed to be about 90 on Saturday. Summer's coming. Doing this stuff in Florida's summer heat can be brutal.

Hello...........:call:

[ErnieS]

Mornin folks. It's 73, on the way to a high of 87, perhaps another record high temp for the date. Ft Lauderdale and Miami both hit 89 yesterday tying old records. Now were looking forward to Wednesday when it's not likely to make it out of the mid 60's. This may not sound like a big deal, but a 25 degree temperature swing in just a few days is very unusual here. The monthly average highs between January and July only differ by 14 degrees. (75.6 - 89.9) It was real foggy here at sunrise, but most of it has burned off and in about a half hour, I'm going to Miami for Cuban coffee.

Y'all have a great day!

[Screamin' Eagle]

How are y'all doing today?????? :unsure:

[kd5cqt]

Good afternoon...missed the AM opportunity to post here. Been busy in the kitchen and time just flew on by. Grungy overcast here on the cost with a lot of dampness making it a good day to stay in the house and do something constructive....well, maybe not.

[Screamin' Eagle]

Whatcha cooking?????? :bbq:

[ErnieS]

Before heading out, I checked the weather radar and decided I would be better off heading north. I took the coastal road up to Palm Beach and stopped by this house on North Ocean Blvd. I couldn't convince the security guard that the owner was expecting me, but I did walk around to the beach and snap this shot of the house from the beach.

Only 44 million, if you're looking for a new house.

[Screamin' Eagle]

Only 44 million, if you're looking for a new house.

Daaayuuuuum......

[ErnieS]

That's Rush Limbaugh's house. Actually it's one of half a dozen or so buildings on the property. I was about 100 yards from the house when I took the shot and the streeet is another 150 yards beyond the back of the house The main house must be 35,000 square feet or better. Here's a satellite shot of the property. From the street to the beach, it's all his.
I took the shot above from the red X

Think I'll pass on this one.
