Relaxed today, starting a big stressful job tomorrow. Hope I get some sleep tonight, the last few nights were not so good.
What did you do today?

I hear you about the lack of sleeping problem. What kind of job is this new one?

Nothing to crazy but o have to go down 18' deep in the middle of an intersection while keeping traffic moving. We had a nice detour but got rejected because a council member lived near by. That and a lot of buried utilities to dig around and my best guy broke his leg Saturday and won't be there.
Me and my pills will be there, provided you let me play with the digging machine.

Is this one big enough?
^^^Hell Yeah, that is what I'm talking about!
Do you need a flagman as well? Hire me and Austin on both ends and we'll have that traffic flowing everywhere and make for an exciting day of work.

I have two flagmen and the traffic still does that regardless.

Just for the record the daily rental rate on that excavator is $600 so whatever you are gonna run over better be worth it.

Feels odd to be home at 7am on a work day. Job is 5 minutes from home and street work hours are 8:30 to 3. Are you two gonna show up and direct traffic today?
I'm on my way. Since the walker is pretty slow, I'll be there at about 0200 hours. Do you have a bed for me?
I started that direction but my hove-around ran out of batteries. I'm going to "find" one of those grocery store carts and see you guys in a couple of days.
I will brink a hammock so my bedding needs are taken care of.

I can make you a dirt bed. This one is 18' deep
I like how you set up the hole to accept the steel plate so us drivers don't have to bump-bump while driving over it. I also like that they tend to slip less. I suppose this reduces your liability, or does the city require it?

Per county I have to repave ten foot any way so might as well make it nice from the beginning.

Pics or you both don't exist.
Come on, now! We know one of the two does, just not which one.
Hi. I'm bored so I thought I would babble in this thread.
I got up around 8am after being pestered by two of my cats throughout the night. My one-eyed kitten wanted attention and my fat 12 year old cat was out of water so she pounced on me at 3am to let me know that she wanted something. At least she didn't grab a baseball bat like Simon's Cat in the Cat Man Doo skit on Youtube.
I walked out into the hallway and discovered one of my cats eating a small rabbit. There was blood all over the carpet and guts and eyeballs spread around. I cleaned it up and went to dispose of it outside.
I gave my fat mutt dog her thyroid medicine and my rottweiler grabbed the bag with the rabbit and ran off with it. She successfully got it out of the bag and ate it. Then I helped my mother take her medicine and while doing so accidentally knocked over a lantern on her bedside table and it fell on my toe and cut it. Then I stepped in dog pee because my mother had ignored the dog when he tried to get out last night. Then I found he had left another surprise so I cleaned all that up.
I fed the other 12 cats and refilled their water, then I decided to take a nap because I felt like crap. I woke up around 1pm and checked e-mail. Corresponded with the installer for the septic tank installation which is due to happen tomorrow. Around 3pm I called the post office to find out if I had any packages and went in to own to pick them up. The idiots hadn't put the slips in my box so I had to wait in line and ask for them. (I don't get mail delivery at home because they won't deliver that far out). I fed the 11 remaining cats that congregate at my deceased friend's house. Went to McDonalds and got a double filet of fish and fries. Went home.
Then I took a bunch of cleaning supplies and some heavy duty gloves and began scrubbing the toilet. I didn't take a before picture, but it was absolutely disgusting and apparently I am the only one in the house willing to clean the toilet. It has sanagloss, but the hard water stained it. There is no working overhead light so I couldn't see that there were still stains left after a few hours of cleaning. I saw the remaining stains when the flash from my camera illuminated them. I'm pondering going back and scrubbing some more, but my hands/arms need a rest. I used non-septic safe stuff this time because the tank will be filled in tomorrow and I'm getting a new one.
Now I'm curled up with my one-eyed kitten and trying to wind down for the night.
