Morning gang and I hope that your Sunday is going well.

BK, thanks for the birthday wishes and overall it was not bad. Joan brought me in a couple of Wegmans cupcakes along with an iced coffee from Dunks. Food services brought me a cupcake with my lunch which was not expected......and it was actually quite good ;9

Joyous Sunday afternoon Massachusetts, Ken Lin, Tim, John, Bud, Birthday boy Neil, Don - Hope you are doing well and all the crew.

I was up early and on for a little bit between 0800 and 0900. I had to cut the morning short and make a butt nugget producer run. We went to the chicken farma nd picked up 6 more hens!

Good late afternoon all...an absolutely splendiferous day in Western MA...temp topped out at 81*...RH...38%...downright pleasant outside. Hope it was as nice in your little slice of heaven!!!

Saawx completed the sweep of the N'os...beating them 6-2 behind a well pitched game by Eduardo Rodriguez. Why can't the N'os get pitchers like him??? Saawx increased their lead to 29 games over the N'os...time to concede the race to Ball-more. Saawx have tomorrow off...then head to the Big Apple for a series against the Yankmees...double header on Saturdy #2,

Hope y'all have a great evening!!!

Good Night Ken, I am sure you are about if not supine between the sheets. I had a good afternoon and so far evening! I made Becky a batch of the gluten free chocolate chip cookies without the chocolate chips and used pecans! They are pretty good!
Hope you have a great night and a good day at work with at least one Katie!
We ate getting about 15-25 eggs a week. We use about 6-8 a week and give the rest to friends!

Good morning Massachusetts...and...all who visit this Saturday #1...hope y'all had a great weekend!!! A great night for sleeping...temp got down in the 50s...windows wide open...and...some help from a fan. Looks like a pretty nice day...temp headed to the low 80s...lots of sunshine...lower humidity...slight chance of rain. Hope it's at least as nice in your little slice of heaven!!!

Saawx picked up a game on the Rays yesterday...now...3 games behind them in second place. Day off today...off to NY for a series with the Yankmees...double header tomorrow.

Off to "work" soon...hope y'all have a great day!!!

Good on you to pass on the bounty to your friends...don't want them going to waste!!! Now you've got me confused...how can they be chocolate chip cookies if they don't have chocolate chips???

Sell Sell Sell ROD those eggs Or barter for other things. I just swapped some eggs for tomatoes and cukes, Plus a walk with their doggies

Super nice out today but you can still feel the humidity in the early AM Was a nice short walk with many stops due to one dog is a young one and the Turkeys were out
I'll have to wait till the grass dries from the dew to finish the lawn.

Oh and after my walk I took the trash out and the screen door locked behind me Good thing they make the screens rubber tube to hold in the screening on the outside......... no idea why they do that. But it makes it easy to pull it out and switch the handle lock latch Of course I forgot my truck door pad combo, and I think reset it by mistake, so I couldn't get my pocket knife out and had to scrounge around the shed for the scissors ...
You would think my day was going bad but it's just making me laugh. Gotta love Mondays !

They are no longer a threat right now ,still burning but with the cooler temps and some rain we've had things have much improved . We are back up to temps in the low 30's this week so things could flare up some again..

Good morning Massachusetts..

Ya Bud I thought that but it looks like the 2 windows in my office here at home are also like that Cheap windows?

I finally got the Amber fog bulbs in yesterday, I bought them last Winter. And I just ordered LED bulbs for the rear Brake/Reverse Strobe... so it will blink a couple times then go solid. Also got 2 (out of the 3) Cyclopes bulbs as strobe too. This way 1 stays solid the whole time and the other 2 blink a couple times and then stay solid.
I like this as it makes people AWAKE UP ! Seriously can't tell you how many people I see just not paying attention.
I am not going to change the BLIS bulbs just to be on the safe side. And I don't like the LED headlights... Way too bright and too high up that I don't want to blind anyone at night.

John, hope for some relief for you all up there............. and in CA, WA, CO


Sorry Shaun, forgot to say HI
