Good morning! A sunny day on the way.

Thank you @ToddsPoint !! Just got home and found this waiting for me !! Incredibly thoughtful and kind of you !!

I hope everyone had a good weekend.
It was a kind of a mixed bag here for sure.

Needed fuel and went to get 6 Jerry cans filled up at the gas station.
Just finished filling 2 gas and was about to fill the 4 diesel and this guy walks up and ranted and walked away.

I barked back to him as he was walking away back to his truck-"What's your issue?"
Seems that he needed to fill up his truck and we were in his way.

I stated that maybe he should go inside and ask them to install more pumps then.
The guy on the inside lane filling his boat finished and left.
The guy drives up, gets out and starts to fill his tank.

Puffed up like some rooster looking for a match, he grunts and calls me a "Democrat"
Starts about guys like him need to get things done.

I asked so you think I should of pulled out and let you fill up, then came back to do my fill up.
Sorry but the world doesn't revolve around you.

Then he goes off on a lecturing me about "Pump educate"
Then back to being a democrat.

I'm cursing my position at the pump, diesel nozzle pumping and not the high test.
Simply because if he would of moved towards me it would of been a good shower.


I looked at him and said "Quit being a ****ing Karen"

Now he stated "Enjoy your pensions as it's working guys like me that provide you that luxury"
I finished and walked inside, held the door for him, and said you better go ahead because you're in a hurry.

"Guys like me need to get it done"

I looked calmly at him and asked what he did for work?

"I'm a stump grinder. Retired but I do it on the side"

By the inch?

No I do an estimate on the job.

End of my outside world experience-conclusion-still arfed up in so many ways.

Mornin all.

Humidity showing in the air this pleasant morning. The magic of June in Michigan. A good week for corn in the fields which has been showing well already.

Powerwashing could be continued today but I may have over done it yesterday.
(There's a guys like me get it done ; sometimes , joke in there somewhere. )

Neighbor retired the idea of replacing his own house siding after a brief start.
A trio showed up this morning to do it.
I warned him yesterday I might try to steal them before they finish his job.

Only way that dumbass got anything done was by others opening their wallets for him.

My last stumps ground cost two steaks. And the steaks were voluntary after on my part.
That would leave your new democratic buddy pouting too I'm sure.

I feel like getting some estimates for stump grinding.

"Need 60 stumps taken out."

Get the Mrs to do the initial meet and greet.
Then show up and tell him where the gate is located.🤣

Noticed the battery light on the skidsteer lit up.

No main bolt, just the adjuster bolt.
Belt very loose.

No bolt to be found, so off to town.
No bolt 10mm to be bought.
Settled on a 3/8" and shimmed it.
Just finished and the showed up.
Explained what happened, pointed, looked and there sat the bolt.
Grumble 🤣
