Current Project: Move mom to grandpa’s farm.
Status: 80% of mom’s stuff is still on the farm.
Today’s Plans:Firewall, tour the land with a realtor, PU Truck, Dumpster
Theme: Get’re done and get home! (before Thanksgiving.)
Engineering: Research backup lights for mom Inside the house on grandpa’s farm.
Repairs: PU Truck starter.
Schedule: Realtor arrives at 10:00
Narrative: We’re up, making a pot of coffee and watching Today on NBC. Yum, had a great cup of coffee watching DISH on the computers. (Using Ricky’s Hopper) The roaches are hiding out in these tubs, yes they are inside closed plastic tubs! (So just because we’ve put stuff in tubs, doesn’t prevent bugs from hitching a ride.) I have come with an idea though, spray the lid of the tub and set the tub on the lid. That should keep them out. Made some hard boiled eggs, we’ve got about a dozen to put in the refrigerator. Mom’s room is about empty, I am not going to attempt to mop the floor.
Had a good visit with the realtor, learned a couple of things and she stayed positive even with the situation that it is. We went to grandpa’s after the visit and I installed a couple power strips on the UPS to connect all the items on the desk. I worked on the Raspberry Pi that will be part of the Internet Firewall at grandpa’s house.
We left shortly afterwards to take the Pickup to the shop, it has been getting hard to start. (Click, Click and its not the battery.)
I’ve been reducing the feed that I am giving the cows and they are not eating the hay. (Which means they are gleaning what they can from the grass rather than eat the hay.) They are still fighting over the grain, but that apparently doesn’t mean that they are actually hungry. IF we keep the cows, I’d like it if they could be fed every three days versus every day. There is significant information that intermittently feeding them won’t affect their weight and allows for shared feeding of cows with aggressive eating habits.
Spent some time configuring the firewall at grandpa’s from mom’s farm. I have to reach from mom’s farm to Atlanta then grab the link to grandpa’s network from there.
Played a game of scrabble to relax and the wife is watching Days of our Lives while I write on my blog.
I changed the timers on the tool shed and the tin barn lights to stay on until 8AM, I also changed the camera on the outside to stay on until 11PM. The stall lights still stay on about 2-1/2 hours.
