What did you accomplish today?

I'm pretty sure every single order I have ever placed with Stuller has had something incorrect about it. Wrong number diamonds, included wrong size in the parcel of diamonds, wrong color diamonds, missing gold in the order, and now this:



Honestly I don't even know what the fuck they did. How did they get the geometry correct on everything except the center crown? How did they make it a perfectly symmetrical, even on both sides RHOMBUS? I mean, the stone doesn't fit. Prototype is the purply gray thing on the left. Their own renders look appropriate. I paid way too much for this and now I have to send it back and deflate my sails.

Knee bends done
Walked fast on hilly roads with long dog
Sprayed most rooms for fleas
Selecting seeds for germination today and planting on Tuesday

Took apart the fountain and ordered a new pump for it. The birds have been giving me the side eye because there isn't water in the top of it. Should get the new pump tomorrow.

I fixed a couple of little electrical gremlins of longstanding in my wife's car this morning
The driver's side master window switch would not roll the passenger side front window down, but it would roll it up, so I took the trim panel off and removed the switch array and opened it up, which is tricky because the thing is held together by six 20 year-old plastic tabs, three on either side which have to be pried up at the same time to get it to open up without breaking anything. So I pried up each plastic tab and stuck a toothpick in to keep it open and finally got the thing apart. I squirted some Cramolin on the switch contacts and put it all back together and now it works great
The other thing I did was to get the non-functioning hatch release button out of the dash, take it apart and clean the contacts, which also works now.

Prototype for the opal.

Spent all day working in a boiler room, between two 400* 2000 gallon boilers. My nuts look and fill like the star attraction at a crawfish boil but they don’t smell nearly as appetizing.

This ain’t the food thread is it, I’m sorry if it is.

Loaded the washing machine. Put some RTV around the rubber seal on the fountain and where the cord runs through. Did a leak check yesterday and it was dripping. I was looking at a replacement fountain, them puppies are expensive!

I went to a couple of garage sales and got a nice ball cap for free- it's from Mo's in Newport

Also, I bought some pretty nice wooden arrows with turkey feather fletching

Fountain is put back together and pumping water the birds should be happy now. The Bushtits ( I don't name them, just ID them in my bird book) come in a herd and play king of the fountain, there has got to be 30 at once taking a bath. The hummingbirds love it also.
Found the hole in the irrigation hose but I'm out of splices. Had to fix where a bubbler broke off from the riser when I was pulling crabgrass out of the way to dig. Always creating more work for myself. Clothes are still in the dryer, they'll be there tomorrow.

What did you do today that you're proud of? Something at work, home, school, personal achievement, etc...


Today I had gravel dropped off and I put in a new driveway. It was a lot of work but I got it done quicker than I thought I would.
