Removing glue leftovers and filling holes is a boring job that requires nothing but muscle power. And when I'm about to give up, I ask myself, "Would you rather be sitting through an all-hands or QBR, listening to a middle manager droning on about AI bullshit?" And just like that, I feel a boost of energy and joy.
New additions to our tool box. I can't wait to try them.
Here's what the screw looks like. It's no joke.
This damn screw is driving me insane. None of my tools could make it budge. A contractor fixing our roof used his more powerful screwdriver to unscrew it halfway. Except now the drive recess is stripped, and I can't get the screw to move any further, no matter how hard I try.
Speaking of bumblebees, we're having an unusually warm and dry July. So on a whim, I printed a bee watering station. I'm curious whether the bumblebees in our garden will appreciate my contraption.
We're delighted to see that the bee-friendly area of the garden is a hit with the bumblebees.
From the "this doesn't look good" department: we started removing wallpaper from a wall in the entrance and discovered crumbling plaster hiding shoddy (but of course!) bricklayer work. Sigh! I guess we need to find a mason now.
Guess what? I have another flower for you.
OK, one more for good measure.
Wrapping up the day with a flower from our garden.
But enough ranting. Let's talk about beer! I normally stay away from mainstream brewers like Royal, because, you know, mainstream. But this one was surprisingly good.
BONUS. Here, the son of a bitch didn't even bother to drive the screw all the way in.
