In now.

Yesterday was our anniversary (#26). I had to work overtime, and Mrs had a in person work thing to go to, so we were going to go out to dinner this evening. When I got home today Mrs asked if we could go out some other time, she wasn’t feeling up to going out. I’m not big on going out to dinner anymore so I took a quick inventory of the fridge and ran to the store. Tonight we dine on filets, mixed green salad, and seasoned fries :grinpimp:

I just made us a batch of blackberry margaritas to start off our evening :smokin:
 
Cheers ya bastards!

It’s been a long week. Was up before 5 today so I could hit the road early. Got home after 12, and changed the oil in my truck since it was about due. Did some work stuff after that before we took our kids to the church family splash day. Now trying to figure out supper, and giving the kids baths since they had sunscreen on.
 
Count me in. About a week ago I applied for a Restaurant General Manager position with Love's, running a 3 concept restaurant inside my local Love's Travel Stop. There's a Subway, Godfather's Pizza, and Chester's Chicken. I have no food service experience, and I'm going to be running a 3 concept facility. This is the last step to me hitting my major career goal with this company, which would be to becomes a General Manager of a Love's Travel Stops facility. Excited about the new promotion, but nervous too because I've never done food service but I'm sure I'll figure it out.

But that's not really "food" so...yeah. :lmao::flipoff2:
 
In. Trying to be anyway.

Ste got back from Reno with father for his first set of eyeball shots for the diabetes edema in the retina. Father went straight to bed and I'm now on hold helping with fishtanks and the new fish he got today. I'm excited and hope they live!! None of the catfish have exploded eyeballs so that's better than most fish from Reno.

Father has made the most amazing improvements. He's been making more sense and did an amazing job cleaning the porch area yesterday. I find nothing illogical in what he did. He's still coming up with some off the wall shit but each week he's getting better.

I'm exhausted from this cough. Going into week three of no energy from it. Got little done this week but I did manage to get my summer decorations out and spring put away.

Father told Ste to buy me an RC Car he picked out for me. I was telling him it would be fun to run the dogs, and cats with an RC car and I thought all of us would enjoy one. When Ste got home, he showed him his phone, "I want you to buy this for Crash." I tear up when he does things like this. He bought me my first bb gun when I got here too. "Only if you get a pink one though. You need a pink one."

Crickets aren't as thick today. I've been shooting them with the bug salt gun. Ste bought cricket bait and told me to figure out where to put it........ it's still sitting in the house. If you bait them more come because cannibals!!

This weekend is mowing with the new flail mower. I thought I had lived with bad foxtails before, but I was wrong. A wet winter here has exploded in weeds and so many foxtails. So far, I'm looking at least one animal going to the vet Monday for foxtail in the ear.
 
In-ish. Kiddo made 6U allstars, tournament weekend. Going to watch him play a doubleheader tonight. Depending on how he does, I might be going to put food and drink in a romantic manor into 45acp in a couple weeks for the next step in New Boston.
33-17
23-22

Headed to New Boston. Double wins means no games tomorrow too. Whooohooo
 
Back in time for a rain shower. With the top off. :laughing: Tossed a hundo in the raffle for the 10/22, off course didn't win. Poker was shot too. But supported a good cause.
 
did paying work today
hung a window AC over an entry door (had to run and get some boards to hold it in there good, talk about anxiety)
and fixed some PVC broke off below flush with concrete, thanks to whoever it was on here that talked about the inside couplers

been feeling anxious all day, really not good bad vibes and shit
Slowly realizing that I'm fucking up bad by wasting my life.
I just dunno man

I was a jr high coronet player when TJB entered my world, I remember begging my mom to take me to the music store so I could buy the music, so I could play with them

That’s awesome.

Neil Hefti was my neighbor in High School and I was in Jazz Band, all the bands really. Our music teacher wanted us to play Teddy the Toad but we didn’t have the drum music. I played Trumpet. I told her “don’t worry I’ll get it for us.”

She laughed at me for days until one morning she came in and it was on her podium. Signed.

I got an A.
 
In. Wasn't gonna be home til tomorrow, I had worked it out with county ranger that on teh way back from the FFEO west school that I'd stop at a lifelong buddy's house for the night to split the almost 6 hour drive. I'm supposed to be on call tonight though so i felt kinda sketchy about not being here anyway, so I already had it in mind to stop and rest a bit and then drive back anyway. By the way I passed FFEO west school and it's basically rock crawling but with a dozer not a jeep :smokin:
I'll transfer pics of the school stuff tomorrow. Anyway, I stopped at David's house and had a short nap and was going to spend the night and hang out and all, but phone started going off about a fire in my county. I told him I'm sorry but I have to go, I'm on call and shit's going down, will have to hang out more some other time. He didn't really understand why I felt I had to leave when I had permission from my boss to finish the drive tomorrow, but I told him that I'm on call, it's my job, and no way am I gonna miss out on going out to fire calls while I'm on duty to go to them.
About that time of the discussion the District Forester called and asked if i was back in county yet and I said no not yet but I'm on the way so they sent another dozer to plow that fire.
I hauled ass for home in shitty 5pm traffic from Garner and the pickup started showing signs of waht I kinda suspected all week while driving in the mountains anyway.. the transmission isn't happy. It's dripping fluid on the exhaust crossover on the 2004 Ford F350 and smoking up intersections when I had to stop constantly in traffic.
I made it, but parked the truck a good bit from the house in case it caught fire after i went in to get a shower and all, cus it's got a 150 gallon diesel transfer tank in teh bed lol.
Again, I'll talk more about the school tomorrow and have pics, but I'm glad to be home
 
A little while ago I heard Elliot barking by our inner north fence line. As I came around the corner of the sea container I see two skunks on the other side of the fence, weapon end pointed at Elliot.

Fuck… not what I felt like doing tonight 😫

He got a light dose. He didn’t have the highlighter green forehead like the previous occasions. We put together a skunk kit the second time he got hit, so we had everything on hand to de-skunk him.

He isn’t going out tonight without an armed escort. I’m going to Tractor Supply tomorrow to buy traps. I have some “removing “ to do :mad3:
 
I've been driving work vans for over 35+ years, but tonight I'm working on my own rig trying to replace spark plugs starting with the easy one. One down, seven to go. Fuck these things. Lol!
