We have a nice sunny start today with a cool breeze, busy cleaning today then I might manage to get the camera out. Hope you are staying safe in all the stormy weather you are getting in the USA.

4 hours and 12 or so minutes today.
20.24 for the week so far.
Upper management wants Trish to hire another floor guy for Saturday and Sunday.
She'd rather not and I agree. It would take 3-5 hours off my paycheck.
The only plus side would be not getting up at 4am on a Saturday.

What’s temheir reasoning for hiring someone else? Are you getting close enough hours to qualify for benefits?

@Fujidave can we assume you are just being quiet about your invitation to the royal wedding and that is the reason for all the frantic practice of the last few weeks? Can we also assume you will be posting a lot of pictures from the event on Monday????

I don`t think I`ll be watching it at all, plus we are not going to watch any News channels on Saturday

Not sure I will either as the news media here has a fascination with the royal family

My father found this beauty many years ago while walking near my parents' home. The small blade was missing, so he hired a local knife maker to replace it. After Dad's passing, I inherited it and carry it and use it almost every day. I have dropped it numerous times, as evidenced by the cracked handle material and broke the tips of both blades That is why the main blade shows obvious reshaping.

Dean, I have one almost identical to yours. My grandfather gave it to me. Been in my pocket for over 40 years. Think it's an Imperial? Looked it up once. Post more when I'm back from my fishing trip.

Our fishing trip is going well. Weird to be this warm. It was 77 degrees yesterday on Red Lake. Got sunburn. Lol. Caught 8 nice walleyes. Deep fried those up with some cheese bombs.

On Lake Of The Woods today. Temps more typical. Got off just before the rain hit. Caught 8 walleye, 1 sauger and 1 Northern. I caught a 26"er and my brother caught two 24"ers that had to be released. Fun, and we got pics.

The rest of the week will be cold and wet. Normal. Pics when I get home.

Just after noon today I started on a repair project. The freeze proof faucet on our deck has been leaking and for some reason, it is an odd ball, that no one has parts for. So I went to Lowes a couple of days ago and bought the parts I "thought" I'd need. Fortunately it's easy to access the back from under our kitchen sink. All the parts laid out and ready to cut the CPVC pipe to it. I remembered I hadn't brought the cement in from the shop. I find it and the lid was loose so it's dried up. Quick trip to the store to get cement. Back home, start the disassembly process. I quickly discover my replacement is WAY to long. Back to the store....they don't have the one I need...............I spend the next 2 hrs or so, driving around to different locations. Finally find the right part. Back home takes 20 mins to reinstall everything. And that folks is why a 20 min project always seems to end up taking me 4 hours.
