They make it weaker usually... We had a place would custom make meds.
Remember few years back bunch of people died from meds custom ground somewhere? Wasn't out guy but it was some of the ingredients I believe, our local guy had been doing it for 50 years and they shut him down. Alot of people suffered from it being shuttered.

Morning all.

I am taking the day off today so I slept in an extra hour. I rarely do that so I thought I would try it. I feel like half the day has passed me by already.

Well, the flooring company pissed me off yesterday. After a long wait, the carpet finally shows up and the installation work was scheduled for yesterday. The installer shows up and my wife shows him the rooms the carpet is to be installed. They only had enough to do one room and the stairs which is about 30% of the total area. They said they ordered the correct amount and that they remaining carpet is probably on its way. I am waiting for them to call me back with the status. I sure am glad I spent two hours the night before moving stuff.

The thing is they flooring company does great work and has done work for me countless times personally and professionally. I have proably awarded him around $10M of contracts in the past and they screw up my house. WTH? The owner of the company will not be happy to hear of this.

Oh well. The good news is I am playing golf today.

Fix something? That's for low life's now... Spending 10k on whole new unit is what's the in thing you just have to do.

Bear's nail is infected inside of it best I can tell as it's draining some. We've been shoving a cream in end of nail and wrapping it, swelling less this morning at least so no vet trip until Monday if any. Doesn't seem to be hurting any worse than it was. Few days in kennel inside for him.

Need to finish up Buick intake and mow today.

Have a good day everyone.
