oes anyone know what this thing is called? Whatever it is, I need 4 of them. I went to 3 hardware stores in town yesterday and they are stumped. Which is weird, as I bought 4 of them about 4 months ago from one of the stores, but they are all out and 'might' reorder (how if they don't know what it is called?)

It has a place on top for a common screwdriver and the hole in the middle is threaded for a bolt.

If you have a name for it, please email me so I can order some. But it is really hard to order them if you do not have a name to go on.

Today's chores include working on the calendar for the First Aide Fund as we did not get it done the other day and time is essential now. Clipping the wings on the turkey's and chickens to keep them from going AWOL.  (I really have an issue with chickens on my front porch. They have their house and I have mine). I have to try to find the fence stretcher so I can get the front pasture done to go get my horse. The windstorm on Halloween night did a number on fences. Haul firewood down, which will not be as fun as last time. After it snowed, it poured not just cats & dogs, but hippo's & elephants (at least a large cow), and it is looking alot like Spring Breakup. It is gross. So I cannot use the dogsled or my pickup, I have to hand carry about 4 pieces at a time down from the woodshed through the quagmire.
