Just finished up at the urgent care nothing is broken or fractured just badly sprained and bruised. I have to wear a brace for 3 weeks.

Good to hear Amanda and good morning peanut! Soft tissue injuries often take some time to heal.

Good morning everyone. My friend that's over the riding group and is a FPN said I need to go get exrays today for my wrist and ribs since I'm not doing as well as I should be if they are just sprained or bruised.

Sorry Amanda. I hope this gets you on the road to recovery sooner.

So the injury also means no horseback riding until I don't need the brace anymore which makes me sad so I will need lots of puppy, kitty, fish, and any other animals pictures as well as all the happy family pictures I can get from all of you.

Good morning all!

Woke up to no AC after a rain last night. Got out and checked the breaker - it tripped. Reset it and jumped on the roof (kinda like Superman except with a ladder). Compressor wasn't running and the condenser fan wasn't either. I had my wife switch it off and I checked the capacitor - looked good but it had shifted over and was touching the ground bolt. Also found the condenser fan white "common/neutral" wire had rubbed on the thermostat switch and was almost exposed wires. Moved the capacitor away from the ground some and rerouted the wires (gonna tape later) and restarted it. Compressor and condenser fan both kicked on like they should.

Best guess: wire or capacitor shorted and tripped the breaker.

We're going on about 3 hours of normal running.

After climbing off the roof I went to my parents house and laid some tile with my dad outside on the patio. It's nasty muggy out today so I'm wearing one of the sweatshirts that was discussed yesterday.
 
Morning! Late wake up this morning. I just packed for my camping trip. Bring my camera to go nature hiking for birds and tide pooling to see ocean stuff. Not a lot of cell coverage there so I may or may not be cutoff from my phone.

Possible

When you return to civilization I would love to see any pictures you take! Do you have an Instagram or anything like that? I love seeing nature pictures and follow quite a few photographers.

Nope! My parents hate the idea after my school had an assembly about how kids can get suspicious messages and you know what pics. I’ll be sure to post my best ones here though. The area I’m going to has anemones at the tide pools, deer, wrens, flycatchers, and more at the trails.
