Sprinkler Blowouts For Monday, November 17, 2025

It’s Monday, and let me say: if today’s update sounds a little scattered, it’s because I’m currently operating on a powerful pharmaceutical blend of DayQuil, NyQuil, and Benadryl, along with whatever’s left of my immune system. My head feels like it’s packed with wet insulation, and my brain is running at about 14 frames per second. Dial-up speeds. Maybe even AOL in 1998 speeds.

I actually had something extremely important I was going to talk about today — a genuinely useful, insightful topic that would have made me look organized and professional. Unfortunately, the moment this head cold kicked in, it must have dropped that thought off at the lost-and-found and never came back for it. So until that memory decides to respawn, here’s what I can remember:

We’re officially entering the final stretch of sprinkler blowout season. Looks like we’ve got about 4–6 days left for everyone who signed up on time, plus the usual handful of “Oops… I forgot to blow out my system” messages that always roll in around this point. No judgment — know we’re nearing the point where the calendar starts giving us side-eye. We’ll stay open into January for the folks who forget — because nothing says “holiday spirit” like a last-minute panic text and a frozen manifold.

The crews are still hammering away out there while I sit here sounding like a congested goose and trying to keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes. Tomorrow is going to be a long day — Sheila has her next back surgery first thing in the morning — so I’m trying to tie up what I can today before we head into that.

So if this post reads like it was written by someone who sneezed out half their brain cells… well, that’s pretty accurate. But hey, it’s Monday, we’re still moving forward, and we’re closing in on the end of another wild season in Sprinkler Blowout Land.

Thanks for sticking with us — and if anyone happens to find the critical thing I meant to say, please return it to me immediately. I’m sure it was great.
