GeoGuessr.com is a google map-based online game that shows you a location and then you have to guess where it is on the planet. It will then give you points based on how close you were to the target. It’s harder than it looks, but kinda fun. Careful, this could easily turn into a huge time-suck.
Not in any particular order, but they all need to get done and soon.
Note: there are more projects but the others my wife is heading up and I just help on.
Finish repairing the holes in Isaac’s motorcycle tank. This involves soldering 22gauge sheet steel patches onto the tank after forming them to match the contour of the tank.
Build pantry area in kitchen. I’ve started this but have only done the destruction portion…I think Tasha might appreciate me doing some of the “building” part soon.
Finish getting firewood. We need 5 cords of wood total for this coming season (2013/14), currently we have gathered 2.5. This weekend it looks like I will be picking up some cheap wood locally, probably 2 cord for about $100. Then over the summer I will scrounge the other 1/2 cord via mill scraps. Hopefully we can get it all split by end of June so it has plenty of time to season. Luckily Tasha has ok’d renting a splitter to speed the process (we normally split by hand). After that hopefully we can start building up the 2014/15 woodpile.
Spring time is here and my allergies are back in full force. Evidently I am allergic to Birch tree pollen. It bothers my sinuses and all things connected. While it is a bother, I wouldn’t have it any other way. I love the weather this time of year. So, even though I feel groggy and sometimes nautious, I’ll be outside as much as possible. Enjoying the sun and getting things done – outside, the way life should be.
…i’m out.
I am ready for the weekend. So many things I need to get done on the homestead and I really want to get crackin’. Consequently, I really don’t want to be stuck inside at work and it’s hard to get motivated to get “desk work” done when you have “outside things” you’d rather be working on.
Back to (desk) work.
When it rains it pours. In the last couple months this is what we’ve had to do to our vehicles.
Focus:
Air filter
Fuel filter
PCV
Spark plugs and wires
Valve cover gasket
Serpentine belt
Catalytic converter
Ranger:
Air filter
Dash lights
Alternator
Plus we’ve done new wiper blades, oil changes and fluid checking etc. Also I need to install the motor mount I picked up for the Focus. The liquid filled one has blown again. This time we went with OEM Motorcraft instead of cheapy Dorman.
