Work, projects, I really need to replace the carburetor on the snow blower.

Going to watch the Mike Tyson fight. I'm guessing the kids are gonna be watching the Jake Paul fight.

So what's up for the weekend?

Tonight will be dinner and drinks with the better half, unfortunately no fire in the pit.

Tomorrow my son and his GF are coming up in the afternoon then I have whiskey and cards with some buddies.


Sunday will be football most of the day.

We just got two new kittens, so we’ll be watching them wrestle in between all this.

Plug and play carb kits, complete with fuel line, spark plug etc. Have not had one fail and have ordered at least a dozen for my small motor repair guy who is not computer savvy. Huztl is the brand off Amazon. Just check and double check your motor/ machine to match. Usually around 20 bucks. Yes, chinee, but they all are...

MIL having 89th birthday. Wrapped up outdoor work. Already started hanging Christmas lights for clients. Waiting for leaves to fall on some of their trees.....

I am keeping hoses out until we get past this red flag warning period of drought. I am not near any woods but there are still enough leaves around and idiots that might ignite something local to my house or get blown here. Just a different point of view....

That’s not completely irrational. Temps here are starting to dip below freezing for a few hours at night and my hoses are all expandable so more fragile. I get so much wind coming of the Sakonnet in November most of my leaves get blown to the Cape, or somewhere, I really have no idea where they all go.

Oh, and plumbing in my new espresso machine. Debating if I tie the drain tray into my main line to the septic, it’s not hard to empty and that’s a cut I don’t think I want to make. First world problems.
