Just trying to figure out how one truck could haul 200,000 lbs. Most over the road trucks are limited to 80,000 gross weight which includes the weight of the trailer and the tractor. 200,000 lb loads are normally transported by rail unless using one of these rigs.

I'm just one stomach flu away from my goal weight.
Duh!
Check my math.
20 pound average x 1,000 boxes is 20,000 and not 200,000.
It felt like 200!
Probably a little less than 20,000, but close. Had 10, 20, and 40 pound boxes, but way more 10 pound than 40.

Very happy to know your shipper was not breaking interstate and intrastate laws delivering the items that you worked so hard to see delivered.

Just dirty math but 200k lbs of oranges would be like a million oranges.
Or in another words a sh@&(t load of oranges😳

Yeah, probably only 100,000 oranges. A pittance.

Love this time of year. Football and basketball. Go Cats.
Went to bed 4 hours ago, and wanted to sleep in til the game kicked off. I'm not 21 where I can do that any more!
How about a little upset win for Kentucky today?
Okay! Done deal!!

Wish I could do that with more things!
Woke up at 5:00 like I always do and started grinning all over again.
We do this not because it is easy, but because we thought it would be easy.
Day two and hopefully final day of out door Christmas decorating.
So far only two trips to hardware/Home Depot stores.

Our tree went up today with 3 grand children assisting. It was amusing to watch and fortunately everything survived in good shape. I even survived the chore of getting the unassembled tree and ornaments down from the attic unscathed..

Just finished raking the front yard. 14 Lowes lawn bags and believe me, they're stuffed.

I wasn't a great neighbor yesterday. I cut our grass for the last time and got fallen leaves at the same time--about 4 bags worth of clippings, total. There was some cut grass and cut fallen leaves that blew out from under my mower onto the sidewalk around my house (I have a corner lot, so I have sidewalk on the front and side of my house). I guess I could've blown the sidewalk clippings into a pile and bagged those up, but it would've taken more time and I still had to get my Christmas lights up. So I blew the sidewalk clippings into the road. Total was probably less than a bag, but it didn't look good having a line of clippings laying in the road about 3 feet off my lawn. It's going to be rainy and windy today, so hopefully the evidence of my bad-neighborness has been blown away.

I used to live at a place that had 2 huge oak trees planted in my next-door neighbors' yard, but right on the property line. The prevailing wind usually blew the leaves into our yard. Took about that many bags to get them up.
Of course they cut the trees down about 2 months before we move.

BTW, do you see kids going around raking leaves anymore? I don't in my subdivision. I made some good money in my early teenage years doing fall leaves.

About half the leaves I rake every year are from neighbor's yards, especially this one huge and half dead oak tree. But he's 90. What are you going to do?
I see signs up for leaf removal but I'm sure they're put up by the lawn care guys. I would have gladly paid a teenager or two for doing the job but apparently around here they don't need money.

Lights are up, mowed and mulched the leaves and cleaned the gutters. Yard and house look beautiful, or so that's what Mrs. boss said.
After last night and yesterday's heavy rain and blow, all the decorations survived but everything is covered in leaves again.
With lack of typical fall weather I'll be raking, mulching, and blowing leaves until Christmas.
I have a rather large maple tree that the leaves are still green... ugh 😑

Darn.
Yesterday was the first time I recall having hail fall on my property in November. We infrequently have some snow around Thanksgiving, but never a hail storm
