Friday The Thirteenth Folks. 

 

Here "Two Weeks From Anywhere" we've been in a humid heatwave that's supposed to end today. 

Mother Nature's had the dial set to Sauna the past few days and tied and broke 122 year old records Wednesday, and Thursday. 

Tomorrow starts a four day cooling trend. 

 

 I think the lawn can wait until tomorrow. It's going to have too. 

 

So, What's on Your Weekend Agenda? 

 

 

Planning to do a brake job on the Chevy truck...

Planning to drop off a set of wheels for sandblasting...

Planning to do some odds & ends of paint projects...

Planning to go to HF - got a coupon in the mail today, woohoo!...

Planning to prepare for a trip in a few weeks...

Planning to prep for company that will be here for Memorial Day weekend...

Planning to help SIL move in about two weeks...

 

I don't think I will get anything done for all the planning I have to do!!!

Planning to increase TiteBond's stock value. Planning to glue up a bunch of Limbert table leg blanks. 

Planning on a nap, later. 

I'm planning to do whatever Mrs. Grandma Grandpadave has planned all week for me to do while she's home. Then I'll plan to do whatever I plan to do when she goes back to work on Monday.

 

In the meantime, I plan to refill all my gas cans if I can get a 20 year mortgage. After that, my plans are still in the planning stages.

 You mean the phone hasn't rung yet? 

Had some outdoor stuff to do, then found a leak in the cold water supply under our utility sink. Not too many things I hate worse than fixing plumbing problems.

Former boss is retiring so I'm working on a little going away gift.

Day 1 of Rust Hunt was a BUST...today is Day 2....5 sales, one purchase, $5

A No.3 Saw Vise...the kind that tilts as needed...

Everything works, just needs a good clean up...and maybe a spot of oil...

 

Have another sale to raid tomorrow morning.....stay tuned

Could be worse. Had to replace 12 ft of cast iron sewer pipe from sink. It broke and leaked for 2-3 days under crawlspace.  That was fun stuff

We the the 11 month old water softener in the church utility room spring a leak.  Not sure how long, but it leaked 32,000 into the crawl space.  Been pumping it out and working with insurance and disaster recovery co. for the last few days.

 

Me, personally, went to funeral of a friend's invalid sister this morning, mowed for about 3 hr this afternoon.  The ww club meeting is tomorrow and the truck is full to the brim of stuff to take.  Then pick up some wood, deliver a miter saw stand and spend the afternoon building theater sets.

Change of plans. Turns out this weekend is Mrs. Grandma Grandpadave's weekend to work...well 1/2 days Saturday + Sunday BUT she'll be home all day Monday now. Now I have to re-plan my plans. With all this planning and now re-planning I doubt I'll get much done.

Had a storm come thru last night and knocked the power out all over town. Today went to funeral for my next door neighbor. Another storm this afternoon but no power failure.

      Got the Troy Built Horse ready to go except waiting to buy battery til we start using. Filled both gear cases with gear oil , got the crank clutch part installed, and new plug, plus air in tires up to 20 psi. Then found another wire just hanging and have no idea where it goes so cranked it up and works fine.

     Tomorrow hope to get on lathe some.

My step son asked to build a small, really small shelve unit for his new house. Thinking of making a small wine shelf unit.
