A few things.

.
.
After gaming and looking, I got outside.  Something I didn't realize, with the impact tool, was that it needed a connection, for the air hose.  I guess I thought they just came with one.  But... which size?  Crap.  I looked at amazon.  I am sure I found some that should fit.  Put them in the cart, if I was more thinking about going to home depot if... needed.

Now, when I bought the compressor, I purchased hose and a fittings kit.  But... I really didn't know what all the pieces and parts were for.  Only that, the kit I got was pretty typical of the kits offered, having pretty much everything, all the others had, just not as many.  I would have to look.

Yep.  There was something that looked to fit.  I had to break into my wrenches, they were all still locked in.  Just by the hair... as they say.  The 3/4 wrench did it, the largest I have.  So... finally... fitted.  But, I am going to have to get an extension cord, to the correct plug, and get the compressor aired up.  But... not now.

I then got on the mower and cleared the weeds from the driveway, mostly.  Then moved the sprinkler from the back yard, getting the garden hose out of the way more than, anything else really.  Then got to it.  Very good.  Done.  I then though to work on the front yard.  But... no.  At the very least, I would need to move several hoses and sprinklers.  Though most likely, I will need to pick up sticks.  A lot of sticks.

It is 86 out there, which was fine, for mild work, for me.  But too, I sort of hit my limit.  But I did get out and do something!  And, I will be doing more, soon.  Perhaps picking up sticks this evening?  Maybe getting an extension cord out there this afternoon?  For now, though, I am done with the outdoors.  And, will take a break.

Then?  Then dishes, and maybe a shower before resetting them.  They should be clean, this run.  So, after the shower, I could set them to a rinse.  I need to hit the freezer top and counters next.  Before I can finish up the dishes, I will have no choice.  Might get all done today yet.  That is the goal.  Not much else is planned, but some things happen, while I am doing other things, just because.

I might be back to work!  Though, at 86, just at 13:16?  It's... going to get hot out there, hotter.  I would be surprised if it doesn't hit the low to mid 90s.  So I won't be racing through things.  Just... a bit here, a bit there, staying cool.  Cool enough.  All good though.  I love it when I begin doing.  Never can get it all done.  Always more, too much really.  But... am I working to live or living to work?  More the latter.  I will never get it all done.  Even when I can focus, and act, there is too much too do.  The real goal, at this point in my life, is to finish something I start.  Not worry about much else until that is done.

Though some goals are simply too big for me.  I can't... keep the whole house up to snuff.  I can't can't even keep a single room up to grade.  But, maybe, I can do a chore... say mowing the back yard.  Watering the lawn when needed.  Or even some projects, such as sewing a tshirt.  Oh, right... the Xterra, the hatch bars.  With the weeds mostly gone, I should be able to rope the hatch up and do the switch.  It is a minor little project.  And it is still cool enough.  I may just get out and get that done... or... after my break, first thing.  Then in to dishes.

Hungry.  If I am a good boy, I may go in and get a naked burger from Wendy's.  A double.  And fries.  It's a stretch, but I have been eating more in the... six hundred calorie days lately.  Not losing any weight, not gaining muscle, just... am.  So, I don't mind having a meal out from time to time, especially when I go easy, mostly.

Yea.  A good start.  I am enjoying it.  Later.
