Cool NY's August '20 "Summer is almost over" BS Thread

Time to rip another month off the calendar as we say good bye to July and welcome to August. Hopefully this month will be better than last month as we slowly get back to a "normal".
You know what to do so let the BS fly and have fun!!!

Not napping, darn. Finished mowing the front yard and did some string trimming. Time to stay hydrated and surf, then back to trimming. Recliners look good Matt. Wonder what will happen if I push the re-cline button on mine.....................................

Right one has a back, just took it off and threw in backseat. That one is big and fluffy. I love it but cats took it over

Brought up an electric one from daughter in NC, earlier this month. Don't really like it as it does not recline all the way back to Neil's recommended sleeping position. But, it does help on leaving the chair. It lifts and tilts.

Darn, just started raining, just when I was getting ready to go out and do some trimming.

Rain didn't amount to much, so ended up trimming 125 ft of bank plus some other stuff. Wore out 2 batteries and me

My backs toast for this week.

Parcel sorter got a magazine stuck in the brushes (electric rails) and snapped 2 dozen off. Hard concrete floor did not do my knees any favors.

Im ready to go
