    DAMN it.
    Last day of vacation.

    And I still haven't wired the led light bars. And I don't feel like starting it now.
    :xmad:

    Maybe my next day off.

    They got me twice in 3 years. Ended up as a juror on a murder trial the second time. Haven't been summoned again since 2015.
    Man, I just jinxed myself. I got one of those jury duty notices in the mailbox this afternoon. My past service won't get me out of it due to being more than two years ago. Uggh!

    I have been complaining to my wife this summer about how physically taxing the lawn mowing has been on me. I attributed it to getting older. It turns out that the the personal pace drive on my 16 year old Lawn Boy has partially crapped out and it isn't helping much any more. I went to Terpstra's this morning and got a new Toro Recycler with the same features as the old Lawn Boy. My last two mowers average 17 years of service so it was time in my mind. Now I can regain mastery of my lawn again without looking like an exhausted old dude.

    With goats managing the grass, I could no longer use being tired from mowing as an excuse to procrastinate on her endless list of projects. I didn't tell her that the new mower is easier to push.
    jedi will.

    There. I procrastinated long enough.
    Now it's raining. So I'll have to not work on wiring up the LED lightbar.

    :)
    It stopped, so it may be a bit cooler and twice as humid.

    Do I need to come over and get you out of bed again?

    Nah. I needed a day off.
    I REALLY wanted to finish that job.
    But I REALLY wanted to do nothing.

    Besides, drilling and bolting the metal bracket I made caused me to move my hands quite a few times against the grill. That did not feel good.

    After that, your new one will seem like a Cadillac.
