Well I fixed a fence this weekend ,,tools breaking made it go twice as long as it should have ,,which made me miss an important meet with a friend that we had been planning since before Christmas ....kind of a bummer weekend and it's 2:45am now ....finishing up putting the valuables in the garage and guna try to get some shut eye before I wake up at 6:30 am to get the boy ready for school ......hope y'all had a better weekend than me guys and gals .....guna puff and try to pass out ....

Bright side is I have a few tools I hate with a serious passion and a personal range to exact my revenge

Night my Riu Fam

The counties for deer pickup went up for bid again, including all that I'm doing now. I thought I had 2 more years on these contracts but the stupid government can change things as they wish. I'm throwing a bid in for twice as many counties as I'm doing now. I'd be working a lot more but would be getting paid almost 3 times as much as I am now.
The wife is also trying for a different job, she's been a manager at a local gas station for around 7 years but feels it's time to move on. She's trying for a dayshift position at a cheese factory that just put in a new line. The pay and benefits are real good for this area.

Kinda stressful not knowing what'll all happen in the next month, here's hoping for the best.
It seems 2017 is all about change. I wish you the best although you will do great! I know it.

The dumpster finally left today.
A sad farewell to 11 months of being able to dispose of anything. Bummer. Then again maybe not at $400 rental each times 7.

Left some nice ruts, had some gravel dropped off and raked it around.
Grand opening of garage today.

I also had a 3rd of a can of polyurethane left. So, why leave it lay around?

I put a 4th coat on the garage ceiling and used it up. Very glazed and reflective, looks like glass.

You can see the color difference between raw and 4 coats of poly.

Now I have to primer and paint outside garage door framing before new door arrives Thursday. In temps. under 40°.
If it looks bad, I'll wrap it later with soffit and fascia mastic. Changing everything from white to brown like the other place. White shows dirt and dust too much.

Anybody ever exterior trim paint in low temps.? I'm thinking if it can dry, it can work but I never did it before.

It will be fucked, wait til it warms up. I have some oil stained exterior stuff that still is tacky after 3 weeks. Lots of days at mid/low 40's and nights at 25; 3 storms have passed thru with humidity not lower than 70 in 2 months

It'll dry. It might take a little longer to dry though, so if your thinking about reapplying, consider that.
