What's everybody doing today?

[hiwall]

Had to go to the city to visit the bank so we bought some supplies and took wife out for a steak dinner.

@hiwall
Sounds like a fun time for all!

Did y'all go dancin'?

 

[DrPrepper]

No I haven't shot it yet. I'm not a cold weather person so I'll wait until the Climate Change kicks in and the temperatures get above 60.

No optics. This is a temporary gun. Son is upgrading the permanent gun but it will not be returned until they come to visit this fall. I needed a pistol caliber rifle for 3-gun matches this spring and summer. Then it will replace (3-gun matches will let me know if it's reliable) the SxS shotgun as the primary "middle of the night go to" firearm. 10 rounds plus 2 additional mags is better then 2 12 gauge shells plus a box of 25?

LazyL,
It is a fun gun to shoot! My husband has the 40 mm and I have a HiPoint 9mm, and I love it! Very accurate, and I don't use a scope or anything, just the ghost ring it came with. Have fun with yours!

Lawyer check ...
Accountant check ...
Insurance ... just need to sigh...

This has been an all day job!
Heading to bed as I need to be up at 5 in the morning.

I am so excited ... I just realized that it isn’t my memory getting worse .... my forgetter is getting better.

No we left the city as fast as I could get my wife to leave. Should have stopped to see Dr. Prepper, maybe the next trip!

I've been watching the weather all day. I was lucky. The folks in Jacksonville AL weren't so lucky, nor were the folks in Etowah or St. Clair counties, lots of damage, lots of injuries, about 20 tornadoes today.

 

[gumpy]

I'm going to be ripping 2x10x16's for lathe to go under the metal roof today. Fixin' to get started!

 

[NannyPatty]

Stop and rest along the way, Gumps! That's what I have to tell Gramps who still thinks he's a teenager!
I'm headed to work, regular busy Tues.

 

[Amish Heart]

Getting ready for work!
Need to get some freezer meals ready to take to mom this weekend. Hopefully will have time to work on a few soups after work.

 

[snappy1]

Today is laundry day, so that. List some eBay, make pumpkin treats for the pups, and strain my cold brew coffee. First time to make cold brew. I will let you know how it turns out!

 

[NannyPatty]

Pumpkin treats? Do you just dry pumpkin?

 

[Meerkat]

Got the MRI done but haven't got the results yet.
Thank you for asking.

Mo Book, Hope the results are positive.

Waiting for storm to arrive and soaking fruit and nuts for fruit cakes. Cooking cleaning bathing dogs in plans fro today.

 

[hiwall]

Very nice day here. Did some outside work this morning and now deciding what to do this afternoon. Unloaded the building materials I bought yesterday. Likely more work in the garage/shop this afternoon. But it is sunny with almost no wind so I might set up a couple swinging targets and do some plinking.

 

[snappy1]

Pumpkin treats? Do you just dry pumpkin?

I take a 15 oz. can of pumpkin, about 2 Tblsp. of honey and enough quick oats to make the dough stiff enough to make balls. I refrigerate the dough for a bit before forming into balls. Then I freeze them in little bags for future use. Refrigerate those I am using now. I don't measure the honey or oats, just dump.

The cold brew turned out great and I started a container of decaf too!

Too cold today to use my cute garden cart, so staying inside.

I absolutely love fruit cake!! Makes my mouth water just thinking about it!

Hubby's brother who is disabled told him he really misses his fruit cakes hubby sends him. So we decided to make some and send him one or two. Maybe I'll send you one?
We didn't get enough brandy to soak fruits and nuts so I used a little vodka and a bottle of something from Italy son sent me, brand, whiskey, don't know. I know whatever it is it like fire on your tonque.

 

[gumpy]

Sounds delicious! I'd love to have some, but that's a lot of trouble and expense to go through.
It's great you're sending your BIL some!

Have the storms gone through yet?

 

[hiwall]

Wired three more outlets in the new garage and did more wall sheeting. Then wife and I went for a nice walk. Saw about three dozen elk on our walk.

 

[squirrelhunter]

Since I've got to wait on money for the manual lockers on the '99 Ranger,I think I'll try and figure out why the '94 Ranger doesn't come out of 4x4 when I turn it off. Gotta do something to keep busy or I'll go "stir crazy" ..
(And before anybody comments on that,I know that's not a far trip )

 

[backlash]

Started working on my cattle panel greenhouse.
I'll get the door and window framed tomorrow and hopefully get the plastic on Friday or Saturday.
Spring at last.

Do you bend the panel's in a 'U' shape, stake it down, and stretch plastic over it?

Long Day. Grilled some Carne. Ate Ice cream. Going to bed.

I used to soak my banana fruitcakes in Jack Daniels, until I quit drinking. Now I make an orange glaze for them.

Watching for tornadoes completely exhausts me. I did absolutely nothing today except fix lunch and supper. I'm still tired...
