I got my taxes done finally. I was not hurt that bad. Big load off my shoulders after the mess from the last three years. Now I hold my breath for two months and see what happens.
Congratulations.

We finished ours a few weeks ago and hopefully will file electronically today.

Good afternoon!

Dad and I hit up Bardstown today. Did the piddler mall and had fish for lunch. Riding around with the windows down and jamming to some Willy's Roadhouse. Good times.

Came home and mowed all the grass and also weed ate for the first time this year. Might become a habit.

Put the first coat of spar urethane on my new table. Looks great while it's wet. 2 or 4 coats to go with sanding between each.

Sounds like you had a very productive day. I took a little day trip to Trump headquarters in preparation for a Trump Rally on May 4 at Adams Moon Lake Ranch. Gonna be fun. Menu includes all of the local favorites. Swamp cabbage, fried fish, pulled pork, pork ribs, fried chicken and gator meat. Also deer meat and quail. Getting ready for 2020 down here.

Just talking with my wife about something or another and my mind went back to school and some games we used to play.

First one was at lunch during grade school. About 8 kids sitting around a table. Each kid would continue a count around the table. 1,2,3,4,5,6,_,8,9,10...

The deal was, you couldn't name a number that contained a 7. The other criteria was that the number could not be divisible by 7 either. 3rd grade I think.
 
Good morning and Happy Hump Day from ATX. Currently 66°F. More 90s coming this afternoon. Near record heat expected. Thank goodness for AC.

MLB season is underway. I'm not into it like the old days. College game is fun sometimes. Just under 5 months until college football kicks off again.

We'll check back later. Y'all behave.
 
Good morning D-League

Waking up with my third cup of coffee down. Will fill 'er up in a minute. We are in a pleasant weather pattern which is common for this time of year. Low of 61° and a high of 83°. Baseball is in full force but I just can't seem to get into it. I guess I suffered a mortal wound when they went on strike and the World Series was cancelled. That was a long time ago but I never got over it. I am into college football and we have a Spring Game this Friday night. I am looking forward to it although I know the complete package will not be exposed. But at least footballs will be in the air. I would imagine the game will be on SEC Network TV. My e-mail from UK shows a 6:00 PM start time.

OK, let's see what the day has in store for me. I have a few maintenance things to do around the house that are on my wife's bucket list. I need to get busy with that.

Take care all,
 
Hey Sawnee. Do you need to borrow my MAGA hat for the rally?

Morning. Coffee. FCC.
Thanks for the offer but I do have several caps to wear. This is an area of Florida where Trump is extremely popular and we will be having numerous rallies in all of the surrounding counties until election day. Good food and good entertainment as we MAGA.
 
Good morning D League. Beautiful day here in DC. I just finished my 2-mile walk I'm taking every day around the downtown. Lots of beautiful things to see in the spring.

And occasionally something that makes you sad -- the population of totally deranged bums in DC is large. Its people who used to be in the St. Elizabeth's mental institution until the courts ruled you couldn't hold them against their will. I guess I agree in principle -- I mean, its an upholding of personal rights over the state. But some of these people are pretty mangy, and shout nonsense at the top of their lungs. That would be scary to a woman alone, I think. I don't have the answer, but what doesn't work is well-intentioned tourists giving them money, which I see every day.

A couple of years ago my daughter flew up to Washington alone. She took off 3 days with the prime reason to visit the graves of 3 of our relatives who are buried in Arlington. After visiting the graves, she found a nice bed and breakfast and stayed over a couple of days to see the sights. It was an eye opener for her. She came back saying she did not realize just how off the wall, crazy some people are in this country. Some of the protesters were down right vulgar and as you said, mangy. Nice place to visit though due to the history of our nation. A history we should protect, not destroy.

Yeah, I'm sorry what should have been a great visit for her to Arlington (which is magnificent, by the way, if you haven't walked the grounds) was spoiled to some degree by the political nuts and just plain nuts. I really love Washington, because I've never lost my love of American history. But even I am surprised at how a relative hand full of deranged homeless - maybe several dozen around the city's tourist byways -- can make the whole experience uncomfortable, and for a young woman alone, even unsettling.

Washington has large, well-maintained and generously subsidized homeless shelters and places to go if truly desperate. But I suspect those places are boring and gloomy. Better to be out on a well-trafficked street corner near the city's landmarks. Tourists from Iowa or Minnesota who haven't seen many homeless feel that instinct to help, and I suspect some of these guys make enough to stay lit on crack and booze all night, then do it again.

Good morning D-League, what a beautiful day here! Well I finished my 24 hour jug filling and I did fill a gallon jug with a few times not in the jug!!!! So I guess my kidneys a functioning ok, I will find out in July. I hear 1 is leaving, one is staying and I really hope the rest of them stay also!!! We have the makeup of a great team returning!!!! I remember back in the late 60'searly 70's had a really good team lost I think one starter, maybe Kron? and we thought we were going to tear everyone up the next year but losing that one starter the team was just not the same!!! Some of you will remember!!! Already put in a 2 mile walk with my good friend this morning. I hope everyone has a great and safe day!!!!
 
I just walked back in the house. Been outside and walked through the garage and there he was. A huge snake. At least a 6 footer. I grabbed the first stick i could find but it was not strong enough to hold him. He got away and ran up under the refrigerator. I will go back out in a minute or two and get him back outside. If my wife finds out about this she will freak out. She was not raised around snakes like I was and gets scared around them.

Yeah, man, get that thing out of there, dump it in the lake, and don't tell the wife about it. Act like nothing ever happened.....
 
  • 81 degrees in Johns Creek.
  • Not a cloud.
  • I'm with Sawnee's QB on the snakes. I'd like to identify that sucker though. QB says that she would not go in the house again.
  • I was in the English Ivy this morning and didn't like being there.
  • The tame wild Mallards have not shown up.
  • I wonder if that big hawk has anything to do with that.
  • The Fig trees have leafed out and everything else.

I would have dropped out by the 3rd grade! :sunglasses:
 
Good morning D! Went for pre-op for back, have had many of these in the past, but ended up in the hospital with respiratory failure. Am fine and home now. Thank God I asked Him to guide my decision to have back surgery, he answered, and now it is canceled and may stay that way. That's all for now...………..:pray:
Get well buddy. My best thoughts to you.
