So if you didn't do anything airgun related what did you do today?

[Matchstickshooter]

Coffee, reading and chilling until time to go to work.  I’m enjoying being a sloth for the moment.  I’d love to shoot an air rifle but it’s raining. 🌧️

 you need an indoor range...

I do! 

I have a covered patio (carport) that I shoot from.  I can stay warm and dry but just looking outside isn’t inviting so it easy to stay inside close to a hot cup of coffee.

Pain will always raise your BP.
Bill, you need to keep track of your BP. I didn't with the last BP med I was taking and it wasn't doing anything. I was in the 160s over the 100s. It damaged my kidneys.

Stress raises BP, too, especially longterm stress. I always had a healthy low BP, like 90 to 110 over 65 to 70. After working at a dysfunctional work place (to put it mildly), I noticed it kept creeping upward literally every year. It reached 140/90, after which I got laid off. That turned out to be a real health saver! Next time I got an exam it had gone back down to 120/80 and kept slowly going back down.

Bill.

The memsahib has completely opposite reactions to some meds too.  Her response to thyroid meds confused her doctors. Don’t give up.  Your doctor needs to try something different.  I take the BP thing very seriously.  My family medical history is to have low/average BP until your mid sixties and then it spikes.  It caught my mom unaware and she had a stroke 20 years ago.  It runs in Becca’s family so she has monitored hers for years.  Everyone should have a home blood pressure cuff and test regularly.

Scott.

The reason for the  is I’m afraid I’ve reached that age where my BP is getting worse.

Thanks for the thoughts you guys.. I'm good.


After getting the belt back on the zturn I took it back down to the barn and finished up where I left off when the belt came off. It really didn't need mowed but I didn't like the feeling that I didn't finish the job.

I installed the whole house generator hook up. It would have been easier if the Breaker Box wasn't a Flush Mount (inside the wall). I had to fish the 10 Gauge wire though a hole in the siding and into a hole in the bottom of the Breaker Box. Of course there was fiberglass insulation I had to work though.

It took about an hours work and an hour and a half of fiddling around.

 It is nice to have that done now. I am taking a break then I need to go clean up the deck and rearrange my generators so that my Honda ES6500 is in the place I am going to use it with the inlet.

I recuperated.  And I walked the dog!

Did you ask Momma for 15 cents?

  Well, I turned a year older and lost an hour already. I made my time adjustment yesterday at bed time though so I am not sure I can count the loss today. If I stay up until midnight I will enjoy 21 hours today since I got up at 3:00 AM.

  Since it is my Birthday my wife "made me" choose where and what to eat for lunch. I choose Chinese Food.

Happy birthday Dan!! 🎂🎂

Happy Birthday Dan but I have some bad news for you..
It's already tomorrow morning in China.   

[Blowpipe Sam]

Happy birthday Dan!

The memsahib and I went to the Wallymart in Hooterville today. We bought a bunch of junk food we had never tried before.  Usually we don’t eat frozen or microwaveable stuff except for frozen burritos.  This time we bought some different entries from various brands. I’m hoping that these will tempt us to eat when we are too busy or tired to cook.

I worked on grooming my Golden Doodle today then I gave him a bath and a blow dry.
I have been working at this since Friday afternoon and then Saturday afternoon.
His hair got really long and matted over the winter. He needed this taken care of ASAP.
I finally got outside temps warm enough to do this.
I need to do this outside as it gets really messy.
My backyard looks like I have planted dog hair.

I need to maybe do one quick brush out and surface trim on the grooming table to make sure it is all perfectly even.


Best Wishes - Tom

P.S.

His name is Rusty and he is 2 1/2 years old.
He is 45 lbs. of Love,  high energy and high maintenance.

Hi-Ya Rusty!!

Happy Birthday Dan!

[airgunaut]

Happy birthday, Dan! Regardless whether it is 24 hrs or 23.

Tom, those mats of dog hair on the ground are prized by some birds (and probably ratty pests) as nest liner. You might have some new opps to bop pests.

Thank you to all that wished me a Happy birthday.

 I had a fairly normal Sunday, and that is good enough for me. I did get a lot of HBD texts and phone calls though.

 Yesterday the company that was supposed to replace the broken power pole did not but they got here today at 7:15 and got to it. It is all done now and I feel at easy about it.

 They also installed the power source switch and generator inlet for me while they were at it. Now the Church building and the house will have water when the power is out by flipping the power source switch and hooking up a cord to my generator. One less thing for me to do since they wired that in. Their pole setting machine was what he called their backyard machine. It was narrow and had rubber tracks, it easily fit between the fence posts where I took the chain link down. It had a pole lift arm and auger arm. They didn't use a man lift of any kind, they just climbed the poles like monkeys.

 Oh, and he agreed with me that the way I strapped up the old pole it wasn't going anywhere. 

 I didn't get a Birthday cake but, that's OK I got Brownies!
