 Good morning everybody another Sunday's here another weekend. I hope you guys are making the most of it wherever you are Snow is finally starting to melt here It's going to be really warm today. It's supposed to get above zero today. I think and tomorrow It's supposed to go well above zero to like plus seven Which means most of this should start to melt But we don't want to get too excited yet because this is Manitoba and we might have another cold spell yet I just got these guys at home with me today Brits at her mom's house and has the little guys there left me with the big guys So we've been having a Guys weekend hanging out eating pizza Wrestling oh diesel that's not okay. No, that's not part of guys weekend. That's weird get him Diesel let him go don't get him like that Gotta be careful what I say. Okay Should have you get him back? He just takes it Well It's that time Taking down the Christmas lights Some of them anyway No, your lens is all dirty. Thanks. You guys been up to Thanks dirty So just taking down the red and green you can see on the side here I had red and green on top here. We have the icicle lights on the bottom I'm actually taking the icicle lights from the front yard and our white lights that Match them here white string lights. I'm actually going to keep them up around the backyard I'm putting them along the fence on that side as well. So that we have light out here at night. We do have this Solar light here, which works great. However, I have to move that solar panel from there to a spot where it gets more sunlight See something's coming over there. It never quite hits it directly so maybe next weekend or sometime this summer anyways, I've got to Move that on top of the roof some world to get direct light, but Yeah, that lights up this area here pretty well, but doesn't obviously doesn't get behind the sheds and stuff where the dogs go at night and After the dogs go outside we have to come out and clean up after them and we need to be able to see Where it is so that we can pick it up and not step in it, right? So for now I'm going to hang these icicle lights along this fence here and along that fence down the side And then I'm going to do all of our string lights up and down the posts I guess or at least across the top anyway in the back there so that we can see behind it This summer what our plans are eventually are to get patio lights like string patio lights That we can hang all the way around the backyard That'll look a lot better, but for now, you know the white lights from Christmas will work I'm just trying to get the red and green out of there so that You know it seems less out of season Because we love Christmas, but if we leave the lights up all year round It's not special when we turn them back on or put them back up In in fall or in at Christmas time, right? So I like to take them down and then it's a special time putting the Christmas lights back up next year So just white lights in the back. I think that's okay for year round Got to be very careful not to lose any of these staples I don't want them in the yard In case the dogs licked them up thinking there's some kind of treat or something Wouldn't be good This one come back out your paws warmed up It's not very cold out there today, but I still didn't want them out there all day Give me a little warm-up session. You want to come back out? Come on. Of course you do Of course you do I'm gonna help me with the Christmas lights, man No, you want to go fight? Okay See they're all the way down all the way back there And all the way around here Starting there clean them all up and the finished product I think it's gonna look nice at night and light up the yard nicely Yes To here all the way up and down the poles I'll just show you them at night You say only went down far enough to here so that they don't pee on the wires And then on this side You also have the icicles all the way out Into here on this side of the yard. It's gonna look awesome at night I've got one more string left though that I don't know what to do with We'll find a home for it yet So I still have to take those red and green lights off the house yet I took them off of everything else all around the front I took all the white lights down and repurposed them in the backyard to light up our backyard more so we can see at night Like I was telling you before I think we're it's really gonna like it. I haven't told her that I've done that yet So we'll see what her reaction will be she's getting back later tonight She's gonna have supper in Winnipeg and then come home after so she'll be home this evening And it'll be dark by then so I'll be able to show her and show myself what it looks like at that point and show You guys I think it'll look good, but hopefully she likes it But anyways either way it'll light up the yard for now until we can get our string patio lights So in the meantime, I'm gonna go out and get a few things at the store do a little bit of grocery shopping I don't need much Just a few things for the upcoming week. I got to fill this truck up with gas. So it's full for Monday I'm not gonna bother washing it this weekend because it's been so cold for the past two weeks that my truck stayed clean I haven't had to wash it This next week is gonna be really warm. So it's gonna get really messy. It's gonna get really dirty So I figure we'll just wash it next weekend So tomorrow is back to work I've got one more week doing what I'm doing right now with the little 28 foot pop trailer and the truck I'm in and then After that the following week on the Monday, I'm going back to what I was doing before someone It's not going to be long distance like over to Newfoundland or BC right now That chapter of my life has still closed We're still trying to start a family, but I'm going back to pulling some of the same stuff I was before, you know, I'll have a 53 foot van trailer behind me. I'll have a different truck I'll be doing some flat bedding I'm just gonna sit down and we're gonna work out the social media policy so that I know exactly what I can and can't Share with you guys in my videos and stuff just so that's out of the way But it's gonna be going back to what I was doing before pulling the same kind of stuff I was before That's after this week, so we'll talk about that more as it comes closer But with making a social media policy, I'm actually kind of excited about that. That's sort of what I've Wanted to do in the past you see that way. It's all written on paper What I can I can't share I can also help you guys then know where I'm at and invite you to come work with Me where I'm at That's coming in the future, too I don't know all the details yet So just hang tight on that like I said, I'm gonna sit down with with them and we're gonna work it all out Get it all written down on paper So we're all on the same page and then I'll be able to start sharing a lot more with you And it'll make the storyline of the day flow a lot better because I know lately that I've been jumping back and forth in The truck and it's very hard for people to follow what I'm doing and where I'm at especially somebody who doesn't know Winnipeg I understand and you know, I was talking to my friends co-workers Family my wife about my videos and they've all said the same thing, you know when I was over the road It was very easy to make a storyline. You know, we're going from point a to point b. It's gonna take four days Let's go. That's the story. But now that I've got shorter trips. I Haven't quite been connecting the dots Properly and I know you've noticed this as well But I want you to know that that's going to get fixed and I'm excited to be able to start sharing a lot more with you I'll be able to tell the storyline of my day a lot better Show you what I'm pulling show you what I'm hauling as I'm loading it up If I'm on flatbed when I'm tying it down chaining it down It'll be 53 foot van trailer Maybe I'll even be able to show you what we're pulling around in that as well Like I said, we're gonna sit down and work that all out. But by the sounds of it. I'm gonna have a lot more freedom to share What I'm doing So I'm excited to get that storyline going and also invite you to come work with me where I'm at because they're They're hurting for drivers right now. They're busy busy. They need drivers and I Want to see if any of you want to come work with me at the same place, okay? That's gonna happen in the next week, okay? We're gonna go Monday to Friday what I'm doing now with the little 28-foot pup the following week We'll start with that. Let me sit down with them first and then we'll talk more about that But we're gonna go into Walmart right now because what else do we do on the weekend? They're open on Sundays now Steinbeck's going crazy. I know I know We're all going to hell I know Shoot I forgot to bring my mask. That's what I was gonna go inside. I Just installed a new little plug outlet thing on my truck here and I was thinking to myself. Hmm I better get my mask. That's more comfortable to wear because I'll be in the store for a while I don't want to wear these uncomfortable temporary ones for that long and then by the time I was finished messing around with the plug Who's gone? So I guess we're going oh temporary Oh I'm trying to be French. That's not French at all is it Okay, well Here we go While I was working outside my neighbors were having a bonfire Now I smell like bonfire It's a good clone. I think Ready to go. Okay We got to get a few things here Anybody lose the glove. I found it Just this stuff here 75 bucks Mostly it's that 25 bucks for the laundry detergent She's not that dirty at all, eh I mean, I don't think she needs to wash this weekend Get a little bit of dirt down here, but that's just from coming here because the roads are so bad today. I Think it'll be fine She'll get a nice bath next weekend hopefully Well, it's gonna take a while for all this snow to melt. It'll be a couple of months I was gonna say hopefully the snow will be gone by then but that is wishful thinking But we can hope $36 and 50 big ones $36 $36 and 50 cents that made it sound weird $36 and 50 cents of gasoline Gas prices went up again. It was a dollar six per liter last week. Now it's a dollar sixteen point nine So realize a dollar seventeen see what they did there dollar seventeen Should have bought gas last well, I did buy gas last week. I buy gas every weekend I like to start off the week. Like I said with full tank of gas clean truck Oh, I get around here now Can I get through here? Mr. Paul's hauling is unloading fuel here now. I don't want to get in his way But at the same time he is in my way, but he's working and I'm not so I'll give him I'll give him that All right, I'm gonna go back home. Brett is still in Winnipeg, so she should be home in a couple of hours. I'm guessing Pretty much I cleaned the house today. I mopped the floors. It's true and I vacuumed Took down most of the Christmas lights set up the new lights Also did it almost all the laundry in the house. I'm running out of things to do That's why I came out to get some groceries and stuff for the week and fill up the truck with gas And now we're gonna go home and I don't know got one more cycle of laundry to do and then I guess I'll just sit around and play ps4 Maybe we'll watch some YouTube. I don't know We'll see Gotta be awake early tomorrow Gotta go bring people their stuff again try some trucks looking forward to it. Oh Let's go back here and check out the lights See so that lights up there That's that solar light lights up this middle area here and then we took down all the red and green lights So it's not so Christmassy all the way around the yard But When we come out here to clean up after the dogs we need to be able to see where we're walking and plus when we have Bonfires out here. We want to be able to have a little bit of more light around the yard, right but not Too much so I put these icicles all the way around here. They come to the back here And then back here It looks nice. I Like it lights it up nicely And it's not so Christmassy with without the red and green So that when we put the red and green back up next Christmas, it's you know Special what do you guys think? What do you think Chevy? That's awesome that worked out really well and this is what it looks like without that Sensor light on over there See it's just a soft light. It doesn't so it's not blinding us or anything when we're in the backyard just enough to Light it up a bit Well, boy, do you think mom's gonna be impressed with everything I did today? Huh, I think so. Look at this There's a laundry done got one more load to do down there I changed the coach covers a vacuum to mop to change and washed all the bedding She can come home and we can sleep in nice under nice fresh blankets and on clean sheets I'm trying hard here. Am I doing it right and that's it. I think it turned out. Well, Brit is home now She's already for bed already though. So We'll have to say hi to her tomorrow in the morning, but she had a good weekend. What did you think of the lights? She says they're beautiful took all day to get that done But we got most of the lights off the house like I said just the red and green around the house yet We don't turn them on anymore. They're not even plugged in they're not hooked up, but I got to take them down next weekend, I guess We'll see and then we can talk more about what I was saying before but the next week next weekend That makes sense next week next week get tired too See you tomorrow back to trucking
