Good Morning Shiny People

Good afternoon. It’s 87 out now so I’m taking a cool down/ vape break. I got the top and bottom rails done in the back and bottom on the side. I’ll go back out and get the other top rails on and that might be about it for today besides tying into the neighbors fence. Definitely no pickets or gates today.

That’s about all I’ve been thinking about the last few weeks.

I only have one pod, autodraw and gurgling make it unusable.
That said, if it counts as a pod I would like to get the LVE Orion 2, now that Sturdy is launching an RBA for it it has become more interesting.

Here in Southern Norway there is a storm coming, as usual I assume there will be no power later tonight, it is estimated to be the strongest in 25 years, we will see, they tend to over-dramatize.

Still nothing on David ..

Another reason to bring in the plants is that our deck needs to be power washed and sanded and then a new coat of paint before winter temps get here. We just have to find a contractor to do it.

Last Spring, I did the deck power wash and stain .. still looks great, but stain is always finite these days .. you can expect maybe 3 years out of it no matter how expensive the stain or what the can says ..

Dragging deck plants in and out every Spring and Fall is, perhaps, one of the most unlooked forward to things I do .. in fact, seriously thinking of selling them all and getting fake plants .. I've got plants that are at least 20 years old in some instances .. and all the others I've propagated off them .. it's a chore ..

I totally forgot until last night that our anniversary was today. I stopped on the way home and picked up flowers for the wife and we are going out for dinner in a little bit. I’m usually better at remembering the important stuff.

They ship to me by GLS carrier.

When I log into the computer my first job every day is to check the APOD astronomy picture of the day. Been doing that forever, maybe 20 years. Last week it stopped updating, just found out why.

Due to the lapse in federal government funding, NASA is not updating this website. We sincerely regret this inconvenience.

Astronomy Picture of the Day​

Don't know if it's the funding cuts, apparently their budget has been cut in half or something. But it might just be to do with the shutdown.

I have a huge folder full of my favorites which I use for background on the PC screen. It changes every 30 minutes.

So check this out, might be the last one they ever put up.
