Good morning all, welcome back from the weekend! Hit the home show on Saturday with the wife, actually managed to get some work done with the truck yesterday, since it was nice.

Good Monday morning, everyone! Got a busy week on the docket over here. The least savory of them being daylight savings time coming up... I don't know why we blindly follow this outdated practice. Furthermore, in spite of the fact that not one single person likes changing their clocks, nobody can agree enough to get rid of it. I just don't understand.

NOTE: I'm only one sip into my morning coffee...

I guess, let just get this over with... Bring on Monday!

Good morning all, happy Tuesday! So, they have us in a blizzard warning. Not the kind from Dairy Queen, unfortunately. We'll see what happens, it's almost 60 here right now. Kenny, I'm with you, the time change is stupid. I'm sure some politician is making money off of it somehow, that's why they won't change it!

Foggy morning over here, just waiting for the impending doom of the blizzard to arrive. Looks like we're right on the line of rain or snow here in Columbus. Thundered like crazy last night. Shook the house and woke me up at 1:30am. Don't mind a good thunder storm but not looking forward to tornado season. I think the last two springs were enough for me!

I hope Elon finds whoever is making money off of daylight savings and cuts the funding, haha.

Happy Tuesday! I survived the surgery. Pain went from a constant level 7-10 to 0-2. I’m weak but can do many things I could the last 2 weeks. Laying down being one of them. Should be back working thursday/Friday part day. At least get caught up on projects and email. With the funeral I’ve been out of the office for nearly 4 weeks…

Wonder how all this wind will be tonight.

3 weeks of no bend lift or twist. Then I can start doing more. Looks like no work on the 71 for a while. I’ll have con my neighbor into doing struts on the jeep. I’d like to get it sold.

All in all it could have been a worse time of year. My summer won’t get interrupted now.

Good morning all, happy Humpeth Day! Not at work this morning, the site is closed, roads are impassable due to drifting. Had is a full on blizzard last night! Didn’t get a ton of white crap, but it’s blown into drifts. Going out here shortly and try to clear the driveway. It’s still pretty windy out.

TC great to hear surgery went well! Hopefully that resolves your pain!

Tornado Watch until 1PM here. I thought I'd get away from those when I moved from Nebraska. Wrong!

Good afternoon, all! We didn't open the store until noon today. Just not worth it. Got caught right when the blizzard started yesterday. Had the kids with me and was doing about 30mph the whole way. The roads were black ice and couldn't see the hood of the pickup for over half the drive. I don't care to go through that again!
