Thankfully at this juncture I think I need to concentrate on immediate needs which are much less intensive than a SNF. I think near-term is support for meals on wheels, and other aspects of their office for aging can provide to them. Follow that with discussions with them about...

Thanks. My folks were in very good shape until a couple years ago. Both the in-laws have passed. They own a very nice house that is horrendous for their current status. They need help from folks for routine care, etc. They won’t seek any help. It’s a “farmer” thing….and I’m proof that genetics...

I know several OTT members have dealt with care of elder parents or other family. My folks are well into their 80’s and their health has declined greatly over last couple years. They live an hour from us. I responded to a call from my dad this afternoon; my mom took a fall last night. When I...

Yep- I recognized it as such also. (y)

Good advice so far, and suggest you follow it. What tractor are we working on? Don't know what an "L25" is in your profile. Reason for the model question is that I've seen some horror stories of battery replacements causing burned-out ECM/PCM modules.... For a strictly mechanical machine...

Not much. Working on seasonal transition still. Target needs to get ready to mow shortly, but it’s not an emergency. Took chains off, picked up a few downed limbs. Put sharpened blades back on and drained the gearbox of the mower deck. As it’s steep (look to the right of the house), I prefer...

Never hunted turkey. Was big into varmint hunting (woodchucks/ groundhogs) when turkey hunting became popular. Coyotes took care of the woodchucks, which is a good thing, but limited my hunting. Turkey hunting is big here and I’ve seen some great Toms on my trip to work each morning...

@Kennyd4110 sells a lot of other great things too….😉 Definitely worth exploring his website and a bookmark too. Just a suggestion from a happy customer…. ;)

Geddy’s grazing….have spots where lawn took off this spring. Most doesn’t need mowing yet. I need to get the mower deck ready to go and on the tractor. Still have the loader and chains on. :oops: Never mowed this early, and weekend weather has sucked lately. Got me behind, along with...

Trust me, not accusing or insinuating anyone did anything inappropriate or shady. Like I said, it just seems there’s more latitude for interpretations/ misinterpretations in this modern era of communication. Downside of face-face is there’s no written record of the communication. Seems folks...

Ha! We did a good job on the stuff. The steaks were very good. The Mrs. Carrot cake was delicious…

Thanks guys. And carrot cake (one of my favorites)

Following @Moose7060; I was involved in Code Enforcement for a lot of years. Had a lot of buddies that were cops, and they ran into same thing. Not placing any blame to anyone; often we have communication issues where the message and its intent on one party’s side is not the same as the other...

My birthday dinner will be surf & turf. Porterhouse and fried shrimp and scallops. I breaded the seafood at Christmas 2023. This is the leftover I didn’t fry. Steaks will go on a very hot grill until rare. If the frost were out, this would be almost done enough for @Fordtech86….sounds like...

Same people that think “R” is only used in emergencies…. I always get worked up when people don’t “pull through” at the gas station to the last pump in the island. Maybe they do get that concept?!?! Their parents sure as heck don’t…..🥺🤓
