Jen - I am loving "The God of Small Things." If I could write like that I'd be a happy camper, indeed.

Oh Ken...I know this weekend was rough for you. I hope getting back to your work routine helps. I know structure and routine work wonders for my mental health

Yes I hope you feel better now Ken

I might threaten to download the incident I video'd to youtube - I can't because I only have the one copy but the police don't know that

Thank you! I am starting to feel better. This whole thing knocked the wind out of me as I thought for sure I was not that bad. But man those tests sucked. I will know more next month when I get the exact results.

Working from home today as we got snow so not yet a full routine but getting there.

Again sorry I am not up on this thread. I just have been a bit selfish at the moment.

Good morning, all!

Hi Kris! Hi petals, soberwolf and trachemys!

Hey Bix, I'm sure you'll knock out that to do list like nobody's business today! Go get em!

Brynn, who is bugging you? Tell them no bumtrons allowed.

Hi Marty! Hi Sao!

Ruby, I hope you get a lot of rest today.

Hi Ken!

Is that everybody? Lemme go check and edit as necessary.

Yep, I think I got everyone since I last posted. Not an easy thing to do around here since we usually move so fast.

Xoxo

Morning everyone.

You are definitely allowed to take time for yourself ken.

Hope you get rest and feel better ruby.

That stinks about the phone sao. They don't care about any inconvenience this causes you.

Take care bix, try not to add undo stress by worrying yourself.

Hope your morning was calm brynn.

Our Herd of ~16 Deer just went cruisin' by the House for a lil Morning Nosh.

In the ever-exciting World here at MesaVille, Concrete for a 'Stem' Retaining Wall gets poured this Morning. It defines the far end of the Stamped Concrete Patio. Meanwhile, we haul some precious items, like Antler Sheds and Camping Dishes, out of the mighty 31' Avion [Airstream-like] Trailer so that it can get towed away to provide Worker Housing at some massive Pot Farm starting up South of here. Meanwhile, I gotta move the new RV Trailer out of the way so that the Avion can be towed from it's semi-permanent resting spot. Lotsa Busy Work in the Sunny, 72 F [22 C] Temps predicted today.

In a lil 'Proof Of Principle' Experiment, I just made sure my Mobile Phone connects transparently out the Wireless Internet Link under construction. It does. This means we can default to WiFi Calls out the Router while around the House. This would lower Monthly Minutes from Unlimited to a lesser quantity, and lower price. Next, I'll make sure our DSL Phone Line is good enough for 24/7 Roku Video Streaming. Rural Infrastructure is just a wee bit different than Big City stuff.

Got a bunch of dense Tax File Scans e.mailed out last Night, so another reason to slug down a Beer. Diet Ginger Beer, that is...

Will you adopt me Mesa? What a beautiful, that's an understatement, view you have there.

I wonder if deer get high if they eat pot plants?

A little humor for a Monday.

A partial answer is available...

A Realtor Gal Pal who Markets Properties to Growers was in a Grow Operation. A Cohort's Pooch did a lil covert Noshing while running around. The Sativa 'Party/Downer' Strain had the Pooch down for the count for the rest of the Afternoon; Cheech & Chong-style. For this, and other reasons, MesaMate partakes only of the uppy Indica Strains to moderate occasional pain from Dual Knee Replacements. And, other Ailments associated with turning 65 later this Year.

Welp, time to strap on my Commercial Filtered Mask, and get stuff out of the old Trailer. Whatever Animal Life invaded it really trashed it; despite using the Redneck Mouse Trap below half-filled with Water. And, other Traps. I suspect Ground Squirrels. Couldn't catch 'em to save me. Something was large enough to clean the Peanut Butter off the Plastic Bottle, but not fall into the Water below. So, away the Trailer goes this Afternoon. Peanut Butter in conventional Mouse Traps keeps the new RV Trailer Mouse-free. A real challenge 'round here...

Weas, it's nice that you can work from home. It sounds like you need a break. Snow?!!

I'm not doing any housework. Although I should get out of bed. At some point I'll probably have to go out to get cold medicine.
