I plan a weekly menu!! Had to get tough with Hubby about screwing up the burger plan!
I've put up 2 hanging lamps. Both of my knees are still sore. My wife took a friend to the ER so she's not here to tell me to do something else. Oh & I had to go back to a store this morning because I bought 3 under bed storage containers for my wife yesterday (wrong size of course but she said never mind) & one of them didn't have a top. Got the top & the rest of the day I'm not leaving the house even if it's on fire (not even if I run out of beer). I'm going to do NOTHING!
Today, and for the first time ever.. I tried using the ignore feature…
Couldn’t find the correct page in my account to do so…
Not a big deal and would have only been a temporary test.

Congratulations!

Listen, I am right here. Stop talking about me like I'm not. If he wants to ignore me he can just pretend to be a border patrol agent and I'm a border jumper.
Lol… your sense of humor makes you safe from being ignored.Listen, I am right here. Stop talking about me like I'm not. If he wants to ignore me he can just pretend to be a border patrol agent and I'm a border jumper.

Wood. Cutting wood splitting wood stacking wood- ugh
Mr. T or Ice-T? Wait a second. I wonder if they are related? I pity the fool who hates sweet tea!
I do it every single year ...by myself
10 cords in basement for the Winter

Friend George do cut trees and make my wood for the winter
So
I do throw it in basement and stack it 10 X == 4 x 8 cords
OMG, x/twitter is FILLED with weirdos.
I got conscripted into firewood season early, a big tree fell thru the corral fence, narrowly missing the waterer, and somehow relocating my big gooseneck nail puller. the first 14ft

We have had several large trees down this summer!! Hubby got two of them cut up, I think there are three lined up next! The spitters will get a workout soon! We have at least 10 cords stacked and ready for this year! Lots of snakes here right now, so no messing around, must be careful! So to get this thread back on track, I am going to take a quick nap right now and leave the firewood alone!!
Ok, finished shopping ... have all the ingredients I need for tomorrows meal ... and then some.
I'm all out of homemade hamburgers ... gonna have to make some for the freezer.

I've been wanting to re-play an old computer game that I liked from back in the late 90's. So today I got Warcraft II Battle.net Edition up and running on my computer. I still had the original CD and user manual. So I ripped the CD to an ISO image, mounted that in Linux, then got the ancient Windows executable running under Wine.
Then I saw that the original game was 640x480 resolution. Which shows up as a postage stamp sized window on modern high resolution screens. I did some searching and found that user-enthusiasts have created a patch for the game that allows it to be played in higher resolutions. Not just a scaled up 640x480 blob (which would look horrible), but actually running in a large window and making use of all those extra pixels. So now I have the game running to fill my 1920x1080 screen. You can sure see a lot more of the battlefield at this resolution, and don't have to put up with all that scrolling from the original game.
I still have a few tweaks to look into. Currently I'm running it fully software rendered using motherboard/CPU integrated graphics (this computer does not have a separate graphics card) and I would like to investigate hardware rendering. But so far the software rendering is just fine. I can't spot any problems or slowdowns. I guess modern CPU's (the one on my test computer is already ten years old!) just have no problem with these old games, even when they're getting a double whammy performance hit because the game is running under Wine and using integrated graphics.
Now it's time to go slaughter some Orcs!

Got all the skeins wound into cakes—pictures in my Fiber Prep thread. Watched two hours of my four hour first aid/cpr training videos for work. Put away the BJ’s purchases—some at Dad’s, some at my place.
