I am super unmotivated today.

I have a lot of stuff to quote, which is good, but I really want to go home and take a nap.

I've got a machine that breaks, then we fix and it it won't stay that way.  I bought a new part on the recommendation of one of the guys in tech service (those guys are awesome btw) and I'm really hoping it does the trick.

If it persists in being a pain, I may have to get out the sawzall and truck it out of here in pieces.  It would not the first piece of equipment to cross me one too many times and die a slow death via sawzall/ scrap yard.

I wonder how long it would take to torch a 12,000 pound cnc lathe into manageable pieces

The only bright side is that if it stays running that long, I'll own it in 2 years.  Half way there.

I guess it boils down to "I'm tired"  Long weekends don't work anymore and I think an actual vacation would cause more stress than it would get rid of.  I'm growing gray hairs faster than DP grows cats.  Laid in bed awake last night till 2 or 3 am (I was afraid to look at the clock) thinking about 2 or 3 things at a time if that's even possible.

Serenity now

Could this short week be any longer......

[ducpainter]

For the record...

[DarkMonster620]

I just wished that it would stop raining for a few hours not few minutes . . .15 days straight of this . . .

yes it was needed, but, the soil can take so much and that's it . . . plus I now got a water filtration on the room besides mine . ..  I'm just on the heavy side to get up there and fix it . ..  mo money going out . . .

[Monsterlover]

Yes.

I rode today and the last two days to the shop.  No motivation to just go for an afternoon somewhere

Heh, bucket.  Lol

For the record...

Siding done?

That's an interesting duck breed you have.  I had to look it up.

Can't recall ever see one in person.  How's the meat?  A little tougher due to their running?

Duck eggs

Bucket it is!!!


I'm getting ready to throw my ST off a cliff.

Hopefully can get things sorted out for not much $$.  It is just frustrating.

[Monsterlover]

It's either time or money.

Sometimes both.

Check the slave, the line, the connections and the master for signs of leakage (pull the slave off)

[DesmoDiva]

I know the slave is leaking...

And our tech said it could be a compatibility issue with my oberon slave and adj levers. 

The clutch has had a slight dragging problem ever sense I replaced the basket/plates. 

I won't mention anything else that may have been replaced.   

[Ddan]

I did it last week.  Must be your turn to ponce around this week Ddan  .

I did last week too, and it didn't go over well with the boss

Nope.

I finished up a little framing detail today which determines the elevation of the trim on the bay window corners.

There's a lot going on there.

They're pretty small birds. We're raising them for the eggs.

...and for the record...

it was too make the beast with two backsing hot today.

[LMT]

62 and cloudy here. I wish it were 72 or 82!

I have a stomach ache. blueberry muffin, a brownie, and then the rest of my red licorice. Ouch.

Wish we had some popcorn here at work instead of the sweets.

ML you need to take a break. The stress will not be good for you in the long run.

Finally got out on the bike for a quick two hour wander. 1st time since the late fall. Took the Duc out and of course ended up spending a good amount of time on some roads I wandered on to that would have been a better choice on the KTM.
