Down south it is raining like a cow pi$$ing on a flat rock...

I put a new thermostat in yesterday. Hopefully that will keep the AC from kicking on at random. If not, I may have to call a professional. How the heck do guys with big fingers get those wires connected? I finally got it, but much profanity ensued.

I tried them, but they didn't seem to help a lot. If I did it more often, it would probably get easier. Finally got it, though.

If you think those wires were fun, you should see the guys I work with (and me) trying to read the letters inside these amphenol plugs, and soldering them together.

It's also why when I first started working here, and the crews were larger, all the old guys would hand stuff to the younger guys. Cause of their eyes.

Finished helping a friend edit the eulogy. She decided to take it over to the daughter for approval. Hope it was good enough.

@Ballstater98 - sorry for your losses. I would not want to be in your shoes. Kudos for helping out.

That's what cheat sheets are for. If they don't supply one, read 'em once and make your own.

I wonder if they still test phone repairmen for color blindness?

In a few hours meteorological winter will be over. Spring flooding is in full swing.

I have a several acre pond in the field adjacent to West Creek right now, snow is melting faster than the water can drain into the creek.

I have a backyard that is currently a several acre pond.

I have a river flowing downhill west.

My yard was pretty soupy but the wind today dried it out, aside from the area around my driveway where the snow piles were.

Going to be a huge mud pit around here for a while

The NOAA did say another blizzard is possible.

Well I'm not going to tempt any water issues at this point but I'm getting ready to find out if the new tile work worked...
