so waht ya doin today?

[JonB]

I am seemingly on day 39 of the Garage decluttering and yard sale prep...GAWD this is taking forever!
Every day, I take two steps back and only one step forward.

It's T-5 days until yard sale...the situation looks grim for completion, but on the plus side, I found well over a hundred pounds of sheet lead, that I totally forgot about. I think I may score/cut that into MFRB size chunks to be sold in the new future???

9:15 AM I was going out the door to start working on the deck replacement. Who should come strolling into the yard but. Moma and last year cubs. I could tell she was very nervous after our last encounter (3 weeks ago) She turned around even before i could get my 44 to chase her off.
Now the wife will not let me go outside without a pistol. LOL

y'all know tongue is a muscle, just like the heart is.
it's pretty much the same as pulling a chunk of tenderloin or back strap off the cow.

Well not quite. Tenderloin and backstrap is meat. The heart is a muscle. A muscle and meat are not the same thing.

Chicken skin ain’t meat. Do you eat that. I do!

However, if you have spent any time around chickens, and you take a second to think about eating their skin, it might seem a little disgusting?

Tongue is good. It’s meat because you skin it.

Someone--someplace--probably thinks that chile rellenos are disgusting. An unfathomable idea to me, but whatever. There have been times in my life that I've had to live on some sketchy diets and questionable table fare. Those times are in the past, thankfully. At any rate, I don't see any yak tongues in our future. Marie agrees.

I joined a new forum today.

Does that tongue melt in your mouth?

Was trying to come up with a little tongue and cheek comment, but I got tongue tied trying to figure out a polite way to put it.
Used to be able to come up with one liners lickety split. Cat must have got my tongue.

Finally had the time to rip apart last Fall's Leaves and grass compost pile. Has to be near a half ton....It was working up a good heat until the cold weather hit....disappointingly it was only 1/4 digested.....so I started opening it up and moving it and layering it with fresh grass clippings!
Probably will take another day to complete the move!...Probably one of the biggest ones I ever built!
The thing that is neat about it, is that this Property can self sustain the gardens and soil with just normal clean up and of course hard work to compost everything!

My buddy Charlie said he was speechless after my distasteful display.

even our small place here gets enough this and that around here to bump the garden beds every year or two.
it's taken almost 3 seasons to get the first batch ready but now I should pull about 1/2 to 3/4 of a yard of quality dirt each spring.
all I gotta do is keep throwing stuff in one of the boxes, and move it each year to a new spot.

dang.
I got one heck of a sun burn going today.
I could feel it on my forehead, but holy cow the top of my head got it something fierce.
even my arms are showing a good red color.

I did get quite a bit done today, but there's plenty more to do out there.

Dropped $105 in the Home Depot nursery department, but forgot to buy a garden hose reel and a replacement shovel. Don't know how one breaks a shovel, but it's split from the rolled-over step-on part to 1/3 of way down toward the tip. Can't blame it on the Chi-Coms, because it's at least 45-years-old.

An ex-neighbor couple gave us two potted banana leaf plants, when they moved to Phoenix a couple years ago. At the time I bigger potted them, but now my wife wants them in the ground. Okay. Tomorrow.

I spend about 7 days a month in a formerly quiet industrial area. Dirtbags moved in and started stealing tools, catalytic converters, etc.
Monday the local pd towed 3 uhaul trucks. One db walked away and they didn't pursue him. Evidently they fished the keys from the drop box and were living in them. Yesterday, another uhaul showed up and I took some pictures as well as documented the association with an urban camper in a dilapidated class c rv parked here. For some reason, they weren't happy with being photographed. I'm starting to feel under armed with my pocket pistol. Thinking I should pick up a carbine or shotgun when I get home. Seattle encourages the homeless, but they're spreading out to neighboring suburbs.

Putting anything in the ground, here in Rock-in-Saw, requires at least pickax and possibly a rock bar.

A quarter stick would be easier.

I asked my great grand daughter what she got her mom for Mothers Day.
She said she got mom a new rifle sling.
I told her " If you buy Mom a rifle sling for Mothers Day you might be a redneck"
She laughed and said, It`s a nice leather one with a good shoulder cushion.
You got love country girls.

Spent approximately 47 years drilling rock for a fence corner yesterday. Ended up going with steel Tee post's and I'm trying the Wedge-Loc system. Expensive, but fast. Driving posts into rock, even with pre-drilled holes ain't much of a hobby. I can really feel it today. We hope to hang fence today if the deluge lets up.

Still recovering from the second vax, but at least the chills have stopped and I'm sleeping <20 hours a day. Got my Ruger Old Army listed for sale on another forum; to no surprise the for sale post quickly became a discussion on how folks thought it should ship. I never knew there were so many lawyers there.

Took a load of crap to the city clean up.
Took a load of old electronics to a recycle event in town.

Feeling good looking at the space we opened in the house by getting rid of crap. Very therapeutic.

Now to empty some 50 cal ammo cans of various loads Paul sent over. Gonna take a hell of a lot of shooting to empty the brass.

Today is scheduled to be 67 and cloudless, so got the heavy stuff done early -- dug big enough holes to put the two potted banana leaf plants in the ground. Now the patio has two empty spaces, but figure my wife will direct me as to how she wants it all rearranged.
