Last weekend I added some 2x4's from a pallet to another pallet. That turned it into a simple table. Today I used that table to work on the lawnmower. We got it way back in 2005 when we moved in. After over 17 years of neglect it's still running. Yeah, it could use a new drive belt, air filter, spark plug, front wheels, blade and body. But I was able to get the front clovers and weeds cut. Last year the drive belt would jump off the main pulley and it'd be hard to push. Being so old some of the bolts wouldn't come loose and I just dealt with it. Until today. Even though the belt feels loose I hope it holds on another summer. It barely has any pull to it. The main rust spot was under the belt cover and I was able to patch that up with some aluminum and hopefully that will keep debris from getting in there. I might get the back cut today also. Ha, who am I kidding? After this and laundry I think I'm done for the day.

I got attacked a little while ago. Not the first time. Gravity should be against the law. Might need to child proof my nightstand to prevent further injuries.

Margaret Orr is trippin'.
Ummmm, tired. 4 hours of sleep and then having to go to work in Mardi Gras day is not the most fun I've ever had. BUT last night's Exhorder show was awesome.

I had a dream last night that I wanted to remember, but another dream wrote over it.

One of the actors is Chris O'Down. He's known for playing Roy Trenneman in The IT Crowd. It might be a shorter movie if they would have tried turning it off and on again.

Should be a TD.
Pizza is in the oven. Philly cream cheese and pepper jelly with crackers later.
