I'm just curious about the fallout from his purchase of Twitter.

It’s been an interesting week and a half. I had an old oak tree collapse after a rain storm next to my home and narrowly miss coming through the house - but not without crushing the siding and causing roof damage. Thankfully, it didn’t breach the roof. I just wish I was as lucky with getting my insurance agent to pick up the phone so I can get the ball rolling with the repair work

It was a pain in the ass setting the date of birth. Now today had to prove I wasn't a bot.I’m trying to figure out my new Twitter account.
Are you?

Only had one box of 12 ga.
I usually pick up a brick of 12 ga shells at Walmart if I see them. Can't go wrong for 100 rounds for 39.95. I just use #7 1/2 or "8 target shot for bird hunting in the fall. Same with the 20 ga. A brick will normally last me the season.
Thats because you never miss, I've seen the results of your bird hunting. Is there any left for next year?

I shoot four boxes a week at skeet. Walmart had none today. I need to get back to reloading as soon as it warms up. My reloader is in the garage and it’s cold AF.
Lmao. There's plenty of birds left out there. We've had a family of 5 of them hanging out in our pear tree (cue the Christmas Carol...lmao) all winter.
I built a stand for the starlink dish to mount to yesterday. We just had it sitting on the deck temporarily. Hopefully today we can get it installed permanently. It arrived while we still had a bunch of snow which is slowly melting.
Rained out from the fields. Planted 16 rows of sweetcorn for 400 feet last evening.
That ought to be plenty for family and my friends. Oh we always fence about 3/4 of the plot for us.
The rest the racoons can have! I have found they much more likely to leave yours alone if you do this.

I had at one time a Twitter account, but can't recall anything about it.I’m trying to figure out my new Twitter account.
I guess the two forums I'm on and Farcebook are enough.
I do look at it though.
Lol
Off to Springfield/Hippie Ridge again
It's gonna be too wet to do much earthworks or gravel. So most likely electrical and some septic plumbing.
Bungalow is still plagued by ant hordes. Inside the structure. I'll be remediating some of that for sure.
Roaches don't dare come in. Far too many ants in the place.

Powdered sugar with a touch of Boric acid is bad medicine for ants.
And it is not very toxic either.....They take it home with them to share with the Queen lol. Takes a couple of weeks.
Im sure they won't see another winter
We have rains, sometimes heavy, predicted for all day today. So no outside painting.
I did go to Tractor Supply, Aldi and the fencing club early this morning and got some tasks out of the way.
Walter the female rescue dog is going into the beauty shop to be de-stinkified, clipped and buffed. She should come home looking like a lady, rather than a tramp.
The lovely Mrs_Bob is painting inside today. There are 2 rooms that are on the 'hit list' for us paint. We also want the entire main floor ceiling painted but we may hire a crew to do that? Not really sure. I hate doing ceilings. I'd rather do outside than a ceiling, and I hate doing outsides!

I made brats, pierogies and fried coleslaw because I forgot to buy a head of cabbage.
Fried coleslaw is good lol
Did some house cleaning.
Attempted to pull a dead pine bush out of the ground with the front end loader, that didn't work out. Even with the big snowblower on the 3pt hitch the rear end lifted right off the ground. We've had rain, I thought the ground would have softened up to lift it, roots and all. I was wrong. Going to end up cutting some roots and trying again a different day. I don't have clear access to it because it right next to a decorative aluminum fence and has other large bushes adjacent to it, so I was hoping it would cooperate.
Getting ready for Kobe to come home. Ham is out of the oven. Roasted garlic smashed potatoes are in the oven. Corn is in the microwave. Green beans with bacon are simmering. He will throw the meal around from his high chair, but I will be eating well.

The lovely missus and I went out to dinner then to a friend's place for a garage party 
last night. So today was a day of recovery for someone who isn't me. Lol.
It's been pouring rain since last night so we just hung around the house.

A little Pollock food, yum
Spent the weekend fighting the Ant armies invading our bungalow. I literal took some walls apart because they seemed to have set a queendom up in one closet. We put down the gel which the workers take back to the hive
Having put down so much poison on the ground I assume they were isolated. Our biggest problem was the dead warriors were everywhere.
Started the joist work on the lower deck. Next weekend I will finish framing and begin the deck surface using compound deck materials.
Lucky, I had bought a lot of it when LOWE's closed out in store inventories. I bought almost 100 eight-foot pieces at $14 each. I just need some 12 and 16 foot ones which I can still get on "special order." For around $30/$36 each. Wow!
