Tuesday - afternoon

I was doing my thing this morning getting ready to go to work. I actually slept through the night without waking up but woke up very groggy., The effects of a 13 hour work day.  I don't do much of those anymore.  I'm half asleep putting the dog bowl back outside full of food for Obi when something in my peripheral said look up.  I wasn't paying attention to anything, just not there yet.

I looked up and there was this giant tree that had fallen - whenever who knows - and was laying all over the back yard.  I'm guessing around a 70-80 foot tall tree.  Nothing severely damaged excepting the fence. It demolished the portion of the fencing it fell on.  Minor damage to one shed - but damage never-the-less.  

There are many more of these trees that are MUCH larger than this thing surrounding our house and I fear if one of those comes down.  Those giant oaks could easily destroy a house and anyone in it's path.  I love trees, I don't love these. They are old and they are falling apart.  

Anyway, I went to the washout today and found one of our drivers ahead of me.  Annoyed, I got out to find out what's going on. I was there at 7:45 am, not like I was any semblance of being late.  Long story short, this dude was slated to be AT the LOADING plant at 8 am, not at the washout.  They wanted to do 3 loads tomorrow. His trailer was so bad, they had to call the manager in to get inside of the trailer and chip out all of the dried up glue in there.  I was glad, for the third employee showed up just then and said he'd wash me out under the canopy.  I left  and apparently that dude was stuck there for many hours.

When the septic comes through and they are going to schedule a start date to put it in - took 2 days on the last one - I will then proceed with the other stuff I need to get done.  Monday I was supposed to have off, I was going to go to the electrical supply house after figuring out what size electrical cable and get that ready.  

Really, tho, I need to find the time to get on that tractor and get busy getting some lots ready.  I have them marked out in my mind, I need to clear it all and then actually physically mark them out.  

I'm kind of in a holding pattern right now with that until I get the septic in, can't really do anything without it.  

Anyway, it's getting later in the evening and I have stuff to get done. Going to Gurdon tomorrow, I'm kind of hoping for a day off afterwards, they haven't filled my tablet with anything yet.
