Thinking.........



Yesterday I was downright DUMB ! ... Thinking I was 18 again moving a stack of cinder blocks. I'd hauled some of the blocks to stabilize the Christmas tree in the front lawn



A few Happy pills and a good nights rest and I am back in the daily brawl.

Saturday's mailbox had some surprises for me that I didn't get a chance to chat about last night. We'd chatted about an old movie from the 1980's we didn't have... JFK... JD and I are both Kennedy fans so we'll watch it. Taking it a bit more easy today... Pumpkin's literbox... Ewww3w3w ! Cloudy 34F .. 1 C

Those blocks are very heavy. You should have known better, Bret. I'm glad the happy pills are working for you so you can bend down and clean Pumpkin's litter box. Enjoy the movie about JFK, a GREAT President.

It was -10F here all day with just a few few flakes. Supposed to get a few ore tonight and Monday. I might have to go to the city Monday, so I hope the roads will be OK.

Just finished JFK........... W0W! what a movie. A bit intense with the Zabrudder film repetition.

I think we all do jobs that would be better left for somebody else. Anyway you got the jobs done in the end, that's the main thing.

Great movie JFK. I still remember his visit to Ireland in 1963 just five months before his shocking assassination.

Those blocks are definitely too heavy looking for you to carry. We think we are still 20/30s. Careful of your back.

We are both a couple of history NUTZ so good movies like JFK are enjoyed over dinner in the evenings.

My 10' Christmas tree in the front yard blew over in the wind. The cinder blocks are heavy and look like Christmas presents under the tree....

Though the cinder blocks are a great way to support the tree, take it easy before you hurt yourself!

Cinder blocks are great for gardens, a temporary wall as a wind block for the chickens, fire pits, and weights for tarps and such. Yep, they are heavy, but I just toss them in the tractor bucket when I want to relocate them, too heavy to be carrying them back and forth. The kids don't even want to carry them! I don't know what I'd do without that tractor out here.

The old 425 comes in very handy for moving junk around.... Only took a few blocks to get the tree secured correctly... Be a heck of a lot nicer if the wind would quit blowing every dang day of the week.
