Cleaned up two cars today. This one really needed the finish corrected.
Machine polished with 3-D Speed Wax/Sealer
Overcoat of Colinite 845 Insulator Wax
Curious to see if this will last through winter. Too tired to do the wheels today. Will finish tomorrow.

I’m relaxing in my warm cozy blanket that my girlfriend got me
That tank has enough volume to do the job? How many heads per zone do you have?
Pipes and hose bibs all over an acre+. I just leave it running. Does the job fine.
I think it's a bad battery--if battery gets below 40% it seems to do this. I don't think it is doing this while on the charger, but it's a bit hard and... she's in college with a busy schedule. Computer needs to be working.
We just told her to buy a new one, picked out something for less than $500, should arrive tomorrow. Wife needs a new laptop and so if I can fix this problematic one, it might work out just fine. Or we might just be sad, as it was only 1.5 years old I think.

Just woke up from my second nap of the day, still haven’t ventured outside yet (my dog doesn’t even want to go out in this weather yet)
Made a make shift gate/fence to keep dog out of area behind my shop. Rain started again
Just replaced the spout on the tub as the old one was losing its chrome and bubbling up. Hard water here. The shower pull was getting clogged up with deposits, too. I found a matching Moen that is oddly something that is only sold in Canada. As I have never done one of these, I prepared to do it today, my day off...just in case (ala my kitchen sink faucet: thought 1 hour...finished at about 5 hours 
). Watched YT videos and it was as easy as they showed. Took about 40 minutes which included unclogging the dry caulking from the end of the tube in the gun...hadn't been used in a while.

No work for me today and probably not much in the near future either. Hardly anyone is booking my walking tours now that the weather is getting colder and there are a lot less people visiting Niagara Falls. So there is a lot of napping in the next few months for me as I go into semi hibernation
Fixed it for you.................... the next few months for me as I go into semi retirement

Pretty much! I was fully retired for over a year before I started doing this and pretty much expected that winters would be pretty slow. We’re hoping to get a lot of business with wine tours in the off season though so once that ramps up it might keep me busier as well
