TechnoPrimitive – back online!
Sorry for the down time – we’re back online, and the domain has been renewed for another year. Just a moment/day of frustration, trying to access and renew our web account.
Hope it’s been a good year thus far, for you all. Thank you for visiting.

Looks like Google Voice is restricted to the x86 platform on Linux. 🙁 So no phone in or out from this machine.![]()
Need to see if google voice will work. If so may be moving my usage to that instead of having to use a separate program to call.![]()
And am now posting from the iBook via wireless. So mostly success! Don’t think Skype is working on the ppc platform yet which is a pain.![]()
Getting closer on the iBook. Doing a reboot to see if I have now gotten the wireless working.![]()
iBook is now rebooting! Will see if it lives soon…![]()
Still need to get the tractor out and move the trailer to the other entrance so it can be gotten to with a truck. Where it is now = no way.![]()
Rain started just as I was finishing unloading the building wood from the borrowed trailer. Hoping it will let up later in the afternoon.![]()
As much firewood gathered as is gonna get done today. Hoping it’s enough for the next few rainy days.![]()
Trailer (first one) unloaded. Wood (building stuff) mostly stacked and under cover. iBook still installing. Lunch cooking and heating.![]()
Will see what my energy holds out for.![]()
Then go and cut some firewood and bring it back to the compound to split. Need to take some time later to run out to Valley Antiques.![]()
Then to crank the tractor and move the trailer to the other entrance. Next on the gotta do list is to unload the OTHER trailer.![]()
Still installing… Got about a third of the trailer of wood unloaded and stacked. Hoping to get it all done before noon.![]()
Need to get off the arse and be out doing stuff, but was hoping to get the iBook done first. Will give it another few minutes and see.![]()
Still installing. Seems to be a bunch of Gnome stuff getting put in that I didn’t expect. Guess it’s gotta be there for all to work right.

Trying to decide if I want to continue cleaning and moving things around or just veg for a while.![]()
Well, food has been cooked and eaten.![]()
Now to start with the moving everything around to get into winter mode again.![]()
Fire is going and starting to warm the place up a bit. Tis so nice to be able to sit in front of an open fire inside again. 😉

Then put in the inside pipe. Shovelled out the remains of last seasons fire and taking a quick break. Fixing to go and light the first fire.![]()
Got all the outside stuff finished up, then came inside and got back to clearing the piles from around the stove. Got enough cleared.![]()
And back home. Put the pipe together and after finding and sharpening a drill bit put holes in it and added screws, then got it put up.![]()
Then on to Lowe’s to find their prices were higher by several $$$ per stick on the flue pipe. So back to TS where we got 3 pieces.![]()
Put a couple of signs up for Marcia, then talked to and traded some stuff with Kenny and Cyndi. Went by Tractor Supply and checked prices.![]()
Went to estate sale. Cat got a few things, after a quick walk through I sat in the truck. Then to Valley Antiques and finished pricing.![]()
Right in the middle of the sequential vortex from hell. Got to do about a hundred things in order to get another hundred done. 🙁![]()
Not looking forward to that this year at all. Tis gonna be a really big job. But tis that or spend more than we make on fuel for heat.![]()
Tis that time of year to move the sleeping quarters upstairs and office into the area by the heater.![]()
Gonna have to go to the big box store and get some more flue pipe. Looking like we need another 4 or 5 sections to get heat back in here.![]()
Been out clearing brush so I can get to the flue for the wood stove. Got it to where I can see what needs to be done now anyway.![]()
Hoping to get the wood stove somewhat installed/reinstalled tomorrow. Then can start gathering wood for the winter.![]()
Got food in the microwave reheating for supper. Imported Harp Lager in glass in front of me. Tis cool in here but not too bad.![]()
Will try to get out there tomorrow and see what’s left. Did a fair amount at the store in Piedmont today work wise but little business wise.![]()
Home again. Got the stuff at Valley Antiques priced and arranged but didn’t make it to the estate sale as there was no more time.

Was hoping to get the china cabinet moved out there too but time didn’t work out so will try to move that and some other stuff out tomorrow.![]()
Been a day. And a long one too. Just getting in from Valley Antiques. Took a new display case and a bunch of glass out and got it set up.
