3DP, Chiro, Leak Stop, Garlic Rows, Last XC Meet, Freeze, Kraken - Tuesday

in Homesteading3 days ago

Actually slept a little longer yesterday morning and remembered when I got up that I had left the printer running when I went to bed. They came out just fine and are ready to be assembled.

The cold has begun and the nights are into freezing now. That is the sure sign the garden is about done for the year.

Had my chiro appointment which went good but can only do SO much for the constant pain and tightness in my shoulders/neck/back. I'm coming to the conclusion that this is more stress related than physical. I've for sure beat my body up but generally the knots can be worked out and manage to dissipate, but this is so long term and ongoing it really has to be a major factor.

The sled is dumping coolant somehow while the car is moving. I stopped at Napa to pickup some stop leak and got the K-seal in the radiator for the drive home. It might have worked....

I had set the foam roller holders to print and they were done when I got home. They are supposed to slot over a shelf so the roller sits atop them.

Noon I was in the garden raking out the garlic area.

Then I got 4 runs of the dibble roller which gave me 820 spots when I only needed 710. All the spots are made now I just have to get all 3000+ cloves in the ground.....

I had to pickup R from school to go to J's last cross country meet, but in the end he could have ridden the bus as J ended up on JV so his race wasn't until later....

The varsity race saw a kid throw down what looked to me like 5 minute mile pace for the 1.5 mile run. Crazy fast.

Then the varsity girls saw our teams' fastest sprinting for first but just getting in second. Then it was JV boys.

J did great in the race and he got a new personal best. He came in 33rd overall and had pretty constant improvement over the season.

We got home in time to kick the Kraken game on. They were down 1-0 but soon tied it.

With the frosts now the plants had to be moved to the studio where they will spend the winter.

The game was good and quite back and forth the whole time.

It ended up in OT where MTL won. It was a solid game for the Kraken though and they are looking a lot better than last year.

I was falling out by 8pm and went for bed. So sore, tired, and trying not to think of the 3k cloves I need to get in the ground.

Managed 8 hours sleep finally last night. Today I get the boys to school, then as soon as it is warmer I will start shoving cloves in the dirt. R has a n appt this afternoon I will get him to, then do what I didn't do yesterday.

Hmmm…. I wonder where the coolant is going!🤔
Any water on the dipstick?

Not in the oil... I sat under the front end with it running for minutes and never saw any leaks. I have no idea where but it has been dumping coolant out somewhere. Hoping the leak stop really fixes it.

Well, that’s a good sign though👍😇
Probably some hose somewhere that’s hard to spot…🙄
