Friday again folks!

 

Here "Two Weeks From Anywhere" It will be a work around the rain for anything outside this weekend.

Got all but some trim mowing done yesterday,(Kidney Stones needed a good shakeup ) might be able to get to the trimming Saturday or Sunday.

Today looks like it'll be a wash, with showers predicted throughout the day. 

Need a break anyway, moving kind of slow, and crooked today. 

Might be a good day to start sorting through my salvaged lumber stash.

 

With all that said,

 

What's on Your Weekend Agenda? 

 

 

Today I'll have a couple of TV trays finished for our daughter and SIL. Might even start a drink stand for here, but I may also be out trimming some trees.....just have to wait and see how things go.

gonna be a hundy and 10 today, think i'll find somewhere cool to hang out, lol

 

dr appt, then free for all day. 

trying to negotiate a wood deal, cabt shop is closing down and has some plywood inventory, i need a gaggle of it to build some base cabts and a few uppers for the re organizing i'm doing. How come when i was working full time the days dragged on ,and now boom its late afternoon and it seems like i got hardly anything done

Now that the Scroll saw is pretty well situated, it's back to the Limbert tables. Got a router guide pattern for the legs made, yesterday. Used 1/2" MDF. Still needs a bit of refinement with files and sand paper. 

Got some piddly shop work to get done, too. 

 

All work came to a grinding halt yesterday morning. Sick puppy. Emergency stomach surgery, again. Not too sure of what the outcome will be this time.

Thanks, Dave, we appreciate the concern. Vet called a little while ago and said he is doing some better. Still not out of the woods, yet.

Finally figured out how to install the deck belt on the front mount mower plus replaced 2 idler pulleys. Finished the last 18 minutes of mowing from last Saturday. Even the Buckhorn has quit growing. Finish some other maintenance work on the mower, plus keep my wife happy doing this, getting that, help me with this during her crafting frenzy this week while she's been on vacation.

 

Grandsons have decided they're staying through the weekend except for tonight...all go to their dads tonight. Will be back tomorrow evening. Weather will determine outside work. I may try to get get some more tool refurbing done.

 

Whatever all y'all  have planned, do it safely. Keep cool, take breaks and drink plenty of fluids. Lastly,  always measure once and cut twice (or more if necessary).

Hoping for the best for your old buddy, Lew. An ailing pup just pulls at your heart strings.

Thanks, Gene. When you've never had kids, pets become your like.

There is a 1 x 6 x 59" and a 1 x 6 x 66" Maple planks still upstairs....that MIGHT get made into a project of some sort...

Even with kids Lew, they do. Sometimes they mind better and usually create less mess. Not so picky eaters either.

Will that be a Project for August or a Project for July, Part Deux? Asking for a friend.

 Neighbor called and wanted to know if I wanted to ride with him to pick up a small sailboat.

The way it's raining I might be able to sail it in the ditch out front.

Is she still receiving chemotherapy Dab? Prayers for you both.

I had chemo a year ago. 2 times a week and then a week off and then repeat for 3 months. About the time I felt ok it was time to start over again.

Wasting time till woodturning meeting tomorrow and packing Sunday for a trip.

 

Maybe get into shop later to take photos of completed bowls.
