It’s Friday and it’s MLB playoffs time, baby!!

What’s good for the weekend?

I’m going to the Giants/evil Dodgers NLDS game 1 tonight, then spending tomorrow out on the water for Fleet Week. May need to bake some sort of quick bread on Sunday… Recipe tbd.
 
We had our sand filter blowing sand into the pool a few weeks ago so I get to fix that. We just shut down the pumps until we had time to diagnose. This last week I rebuilt the upper end of the selector valve, shop vac'd out old sand and replaced laterals. A loose lateral was the culprit. So this afternoon I get to replace 300 lbs of sand, and vac out about 50-75 lbs of loose sand on the bottom of the pool, and get it ready to winterize. Yay pools.

I could never have a pool. I can’t even keep a fish tank clean. That reminds me, I need a beer.
 
Lame, no one chimed in. I was up to my eyeballs in a project going out the door Friday and just catching up on EB.
 
Yay, It's Friday and Payday!!! And Halloween weekend!!! And the Vikings play SNF!!!
Time for the baller Friday theme song. Turn up your bass.
 
Happy Friday!!

It’s been a hectic week for this leggo, and I’m looking forward to a chill night tonight. Then a busy day tomorrow, including a Halloween party! Probably a chill day Sunday, this one’s gotta have time to relax (aka bake)!
 
It’s Friday, y’all! Don’t forget to change your watches on Sunday. It’s daylight savings time again! Unless you’re in Arizona, or whatever part of whatever other state (somewhere in the Midwest, I think?) that doesn’t observe this silly, out of date thing.

What’s everyone got planned for the weekend?
 
Pizza night again! Nellie's takeout which is our go-to on Friday nights. Tonight is also video game night. 7pm starts with our 4-year old. We play Need For Speed Nitro on the Wii (his favorite game), then after he goes to bed it's Warzone with my friends until close to midnight. Tomorrow morning golf at 7am, which will be the last early tee time until it moves to 8am after the time change. Vols vs Kentucky at 6pm.

@leggo PE about this time every year news articles show up about a number of states considering making daylight savings times permanent, but no one ever seems to actually do it.
 
Yay, it's Friday! I have my nephew staying over, so we're packing the next 24hrs with lego sets, nintendo, grilling burgers and golf.

A few years ago, we in CA voted in favor of something that said we would allow the legislature to stop the day light savings time change, but it was non-binding and didn’t actually require the state legislature to do anything, so here we find ourselves again!

In other words, it was a waste of day light.
 
It is indeed Friday! We’ve made it, people!

What’s up for the weekend? I’m baking bread and maybe also some cookies for a fire pit party with some friends tomorrow. Also planning out the baking/cooking I’ll be doing for Thanksgiving. Right now, I’ve volunteered to make a pumpkin pie and possibly a second dessert for Thanksgiving Day, as well as some roasted honeynut squash and some other dessert for a Friendsgiving on Sunday following Thanksgiving.
