How&#39;s it going? It&#39;s meh here, a sign of the times. I had to get the lawn mower out for the first time this year. I&#39;m glad we invested in the Ego electric mower a couple of years ago. It makes cutting the grass so much easier. No oil, no gas and no engine noise. Friday I&#39;ll be getting the wood chipper out, it has all three but will chip a 4 inch branch, so I&#39;ll cut it some slack. 😉<br/><br/>Have a pleasant evening!

Tickets haven&#39;t gone on sale yet but there&#39;s not a decent hotel around the venue for less than $700 a night. Even though it&#39;s not my money, that&#39;s too much. With 4,000+ vendors and their entourages, most rooms are blocked out those dates to start. So I think we&#39;re going to go to the Wisconsin Dells and stay at Great Wolf Lodge. Four days and three nights are $800 total.<br/><br/>Maybe we&#39;ll do Blade Show another year. 2026-01-16T23:14:26Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsxwqvgxj3xjnyasvpalkfz7rl2cymzpk6yj397gfsmmqefe3g6msgzyzmp5s0al940mm6lqdknz5m0j35vsjs2mrtx63s3zzkvwu6dn3d9j400kta Currently we have several vervet monkeys running around St Louis as well as a random goat.

I didn&#39;t realize that vegans normally do not eat honey. I understand why meat, dairy, and by products are avoided, but the bees aren&#39;t being harmed harvesting honey and there&#39;s plenty of honey left for them over winter, if you&#39;re a responsible beekeeper. I actually bend over backwards do all I can for my bees. <br/><br/>So I&#39;m curious how many people that identify as vegan or don&#39;t that eat honey or don&#39;t eat honey?<br/><br/>#vegan 2026-01-05T18:37:03Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsyxn7vd2upaelp9fvhy7js3ve37x2lfprfcf6zhdrsdmzf57c0nlszyzmp5s0al940mm6lqdknz5m0j35vsjs2mrtx63s3zzkvwu6dn3d9jh3paxy In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs95mxq42894vng892jg9u7e6vjcs5sha9asstuahayks5ckmkws2cd525ea'>nevent1q…25ea</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>We had a good time there. 2026-01-02T23:24:09Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsxrd9wwur5mtjtrtpsajke6287hty7agjvzkgqcj7z4cn6npkqxzczyzmp5s0al940mm6lqdknz5m0j35vsjs2mrtx63s3zzkvwu6dn3d9j68a8s6 RE: <a href="https://mastodon.social/@livelakemichigan/115828011098582595">https://mastodon.social/@livelakemichigan/115828011098582595</a><br/><br/>This is a neat museum to check out if you&#39;re ever around Muskegon, MI.

While tending garden this morning Melissa spotted two Parsleyworms. If all goes well they will be Eastern Black Swallowtail butterflies next year. It&#39;s a nice morning to be outside, around 60°F with a touch of clouds. Today is going to be rather busy, lunch with the in-laws and this evening Ellie has a big football tournament to cheer at under the lights.

Then a few days later you notice that your credit card has been refunded the full purchase amount. No employees should get in trouble, this item was completely an online purchase and retrieved from a locker. Item also can&#39;t be returned.<br/><br/>What would you do?<br/><br/>This has come up in a passing conversation and I&#39;m curious how people would handle it. 2025-10-09T00:54:36Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs9d9e2z7nhsqca5zzj4v4svd806s9hmys4nwfrfrdelu55apdn2uczyzmp5s0al940mm6lqdknz5m0j35vsjs2mrtx63s3zzkvwu6dn3d9jntxers I scheduled a meeting today at work for later this week that will determine whether I continue my 18 year career with my current employer or not. The situation between the sales staff and programming has gotten so bad I can no longer sit back, stay quiet and tolerate it. After a rather animated conversation last Friday I decided to compile data tracking the issues over the last 6 months. It&#39;s a staggering 1,854 sales errors. <br/><br/>Things will change or I will. Change employment.<br/><br/>#today #officelife<br/> <img src="https://s3.eu-central-2.wasabisys.com/mastodonworld/media_attachments/files/115/250/868/087/974/143/original/d0a93bf3638ed294.png"> <br/> 2025-09-23T00:51:26Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs9m03cw6ralmafn4rwplxckgdkzdt4uw4mska2net7sjhejj372vgzyzmp5s0al940mm6lqdknz5m0j35vsjs2mrtx63s3zzkvwu6dn3d9jmc83ka I went to my cardiologist today for my annual checkup. My blood pressure was the lowest it&#39;s ever been in their system in 12 years. I explained I&#39;d been drinking 1-1.5 cups of beet juice a day for about a month. He was amazed with the results and suggested I continue. I&#39;ve been buying a gallon from a local store but decided to buy a cold press juicer. It will save me money in the long run and I can customize my recipes.

Because I&#39;m cheap I just stacked brush over it to keep the dogs from trampling it and the sun drying it out instead of straw. That hasn&#39;t been an issue, it drying out, because Ajax pisses on it as soon as he walk out the door. 🤦🏼‍♂️ It&#39;s apparently great for pollinators so hopefully it takes hold.<br/><br/>TGIF and have a wonderful evening!
