:tumbleweed:mornin campers...another day of chores to deal with,laundry and a bit of grocery shopping,then scrubbing pots...not too many,like 40-50...and picked up a new power strip for the build a soil tent so gonna need to get in there and get everything swapped around...almost forgot i have a stack of saucers to deal with as well...

:watchplant:
back from laundry and grocery shopping...too many people in both places...i swear,people are just friggin oblivious to their surroundings these days...makes me both sad and highly annoyed at the same time...

anyway,time for lunch,then back to pot washing...already did the 30 saucers and a small stack of #1's and cups,onto the #2 and #5's then done with pot washing for at least another week...

:tumbleweed: mornin campers....sliding into sum-tumn here,still getting up to 90 during the day but down to the 60's at night...good sleeping weather at least...and getting better for the garden...and for riding bikes...
not much garden work to deal with on my days off,pretty much just plant care and some minor cleaning...

but get this,the owner wants the stacks of literally a couple thousand pots cleaned up at work! so gonna talk over that today,and probably just reduce it to cleaning up a portion and moving them into the store,anything else would just be a circle jerk of the pots getting dusty again by the time you finish getting them all cleaned up...

Who is the luckiest mother out there? Can you say Icky?

So my wife went over to her moms for 5 days. I figured that was a good time to replace my sliding patio door and fix all the rot there.

Well I cut back the sheathing and pulled that piece of plywood off the wall and found a 5 inch nest of yellow jackets on the back. Like 40-50 hornets. I dropped that board nest side down on the deck and stomped the shit out of the board.

Killed every one of those hornets but one. And that dumb fucker must have been from New Mexico because she went to the dead hornets on the deck where I stomped her ass too. Didnt get stung once.

So yeah Icky is the luckiest fucker out there. At least yesterday I was.

On the course we get paper nests hanging in the trees. No good for golfers. At night I wheel up, knock it down into a box and throw a towel over it. Then Golf cart it over to the woods and huck the box out at speed. They relocate and I retrieve the towel and box later.

Well a weeks ago, allegedly smoking a ball of hash and on my however many beers, I wheel up, knock nest into box and drive off. Well forgot the towel. I'm tooling along when I realized...they were mad. Took some hits and box was ejected immediately. Good times 😂
