soon to be abuzz

Cousin Luke played hookey from work and was over at the house while it was warm out. He phoned and told me that the bees were coming out of the top and the bottom. Since the ones using the lower entrance were juveniles, it appears that they have over-wintered well.

If wondering what the significance of that is, remember that Ky loses about 30% of it's hives a year.

The super will go on in about a week, and then let the girls get to work. Hoeffenlich we'll get a fair amount of honey. Maybe we can keep the Yooj from sneezing his butt off when he's in the Ville.

This picture is not mine. I found it when I googled "honey super." this is what the frames look like.

I guess I'll build an igloo

I'm sick and tired of winter.

There is too much shit to get done to have to wait another month.

Four days left in February, then we get into the rainy season.

Why the hell are Cousin Luke's broccoli seeds already sprouting?

And I said STAY OUT

Don't illegally park where I work.
It's raining.
I have paper dots.

Boy do they stick.

I had a bad day yesterday, and today ain't lookin' too hot.
I told the floor staff that if someone came in complaining about that which I did, then come get me and stand back.

I love me.
Repeatedly

not much happening

Split, stacked and burned wood this weekend.

Planted pepper seeds yesterday.

Waiting for spring.

Where'd the cartilage go?

Cousin Luke and I cut wood and drug brush most of the weekend since we had good weather and they're starting to pick up ice damaged limbs today.



I woke up this morning and didn't want to move. Well, I wanted to move but couldn't muster the gumption through the pain.

After about twenty-five minutes in the shower my back started to feel better, and my knees stopped hurting. However, I have so many bruises that I thought I had broken a law in Singapore. That, and my arms are scratched up to where it looks like I tried to put a cat in a toilet (if you haven't tried that, hold a cat over the toilet and flush the crapper- make sure you're insured first).



Well, it wasn't all bad. CL and I drove to the U-boat to check for damage and found none. Beer was cold, and the water was up, so we got the worms out of the fridge and wetted a line. We said hi to the Yooj's lures and soaked up some sun.



My brother Darrel called last night and asked what the chance of feugo was at the PBR.

I told him none, and that I wasn't getting out of the chair for about an hour.



All-in-all not a bad day.

We've another 28 days of this

Then the month of 40-50 deg and rainy, then a week of spring and right on into summer.

Gotta love the 'Ville.
