It was early and cool enough so there was no lightning in the storms. That came later in the afternoon.

So most of the morning was spent in the house working on chores. I got my clothes washed, dried, and put away,and then spent an inordinate amount of time trying to find parts for the Ascent. I found the new headlight assembly but there is a plastic bracket that I can't find anywhere yet.

Got the printer going early and kept it going all day. First off was the spider set.

Then I began the print for the jewelry display stand for @stryeyz.

By noon the storm had passed by and we had a total of .37" from it.

Pretty happy with how the prints came out, the gloss black PET has a nifty look to it.

Stupid raspberries are a plague on my greenhouse now and I have a ton of roots that are getting removed. If I can just get the ones growing by the creek I can phase out the stand by the greenhouse over the next years.

I had walked down to check on the transplanted raspberries which are doing pretty well so far, when I saw a bright color in the creek at the Y. I tromped over to find it was just a balloon floating atop the detritus. The tree had washed down at some point over winter and I will pull it out in the next few months at some point.

The top base part for the display. Nicely everything fit together well.

Mid afternoon I got to cleaning in the living room and was able to get one table cleaned off and put away then J and I swept and cleaned the floor before he vacuumed and mopped. It makes a huge difference in the house, I just wish it could more easily stay this way...

The last piece of the stand was the weighted base. Well it is open space to put weight to keep the display from falling over. Also printed off a bb gun that actually works pretty good now that I have the parts smoothed out.

@stryeyz took R to wrestling practice just to talk with the coaches about his injuries. They were back not long after 6pm. These storms were hauling ass across the region and there was a good bit of lightning in amongst them. None of it ended up close enough to us to hear though the doppler showed it around.

It was all 3 wired out of the triple, now I wired the two IN the triple and one out. It's so hard to exactly repeat the throw motion to group in the triples.

The last print for the day was another spider set. I really should run a print of eyes in red.

The Kraken played and another game that means shit all and they go and win it. It was 0-1 when I went out to soak half way through the 1st period.

Got in nearly an hour soak before heading in to see how bad the game was.

Of course they came back and won 2-1 in the end. I turned it off expecting them to lose despite being up a goal. Nope, they won.

Today is much nicer and maybe rain later. I'll get the printer going soon, work on my truck, work in the garden, then this afternoon will hook up the trailer for the grain run I have tomorrow morning.
