You may want to dig out your copy of “On the Beach” by neville shute.the one you read in high school years ago. end of human kind stared in the middle east. kind of like blowing up a facility full of enriched uranium It just all fake news, right?

Can someone tell me what happens when you blow up a bunker full of radioactive material? I presume it goes up in the air! That does not sound like a great idea. if high enough it will get to the US and make friends along the way.

Got second squirrel in our live rabbit trap. Seems squirrels ove day old lettuce. He’s out and about. still looking for the tulip eating menace.

My daughter is in WV on a tv pilot shoot. (love it like an infected tooth) being a props person, i am sure she has the WD40 to fix the squeaky tank!

remember they just cut the lone wolf program to spot guys like this. plus put a 22 yr old in charges of the anti terrorist program. And lovely FL gov saying run over protesters is fine. there will be more of this to come. this is getting to be a very sick society.

So what do you call a cow that has just given birth? De calf inated!

New AC units getting installed. present unit is 37 years old. almost as old as the kids. getting pre tariff model installed $4100. new unit is $5500 installed. that a trump sales tax of 35%. Tariff = Vat or sales tax

hernia belt, i live in a good size metro area. need lower abdomen support after lifting to much weight, yes dumb. Can not get it locally. yup need to go to the evil empire (amazon) to get in a timely manner. Can’t wait to we lose local rural hospitals, blood transfusion by amazon drones, given by AI

three minutes bear claws. Cashew on a microwave safe plate, cover with carmel and microwave for 20 sec, top with melted 60% coco. put on frig.

yup, ER doc said fractured two vertebrae in lower back taking o fall on my butt, 6 to 8 weeks recover. need to take my time in the garden weeding 🌱

Just got back from ER. found out two vertebrae were chipped. i guess old farts should not move 600 lbs of paver and sand for a patio project and taking a flop.

Baby huey wagon in action. daughter bought large gorilla wagon now hauling sand for new patio. great help for an old fart

Be aware Amazon algorithm changes your order. Needed poly t shirts can only get through them. ordered large got 3x. clicked on over night which changed the size. Why? that’s what they had in local warehouse. Just unloading surpluse, which you do not want. ALL ways check before placing order!

After eating $300+ of our tulips. someone got a ride to a local park far, far away! #tuliptuesday 🌱

Being an old fart male, i do not wear pendant, but live changes thing specially today. got it from Estonia. exchanged comment” Darkness may have its hour, but light has its day. And it's through small acts of kindness, like yours, that the light endures. Wishing you peace and better days ahead.
