That was a wild read. Take care of yourself, man!

I Agree.

....Not Today but over the weekend I spent the big North-East snow storm at the hunting cabin where we got about 17-18". I built a drag plow out of 2x8 & 2x6 and hooked it to the Jeep Cherokee wood hauler. Plowed 4x over Sunday and once Monday morning. Needless to say it worked but needed mending numerous times and is now completely shot. The driveway is about 1/4mile and a slightly smoothed and gullied out fire trail that eventually leads to state game lands. The plow did well enough that Ill be welding up a steel version this summer. I didn't take many pics as I was pressed to work to have the ability to get out with the lowly 1-wheel drive Ford Focus. I did not think to take a pic of the plow but Im goin g back up in 2 weekends and ill take a shot of its destruction.

While “working” today I grabbed two of the icon magnetic mats from Harbor Freight. I thought the magnets would be stronger but it works good for what I want to do.

Im not a carpenter,, farmed this out to lock up. There is a 12x 8 room that was a deck and being opened up to the inside for a larger living room. I spent my day getting ready for the electrician,, then I can remove the inside wall and carry on. Been lucky,, no snow and not cold for getting the deck and roof on. You canonot slip a credit card in any of the beam joints,, these guy do/did phenomenal work.

Yesterday I started drinking not planning to go anywhere. Wife is mad we don’t have a snow shovel and I said I’m not going anywhere to get one. Yesterday afternoon the neighbor calls that she can’t get anybody to clear her driveway. We go up and the skid loader won’t move, the mini and tractor both have dead batteries. Go get a jump pack and get the tractor started. Drive the cabless tractor 3/4 of a mile to my house for fuel, almost roll the tractor because I’m too drunk and frozen to be doing anything, drive the tractor back. I get the skid loader moving and drive that home to do my driveway so I don’t have to buy a shovel, get four other driveways done on the way home. Spent five hours doing driveways, my wife and neighbor think I’m in jail or dead. Somehow got my wife to take me to pick up a Stromboli after all this. It snowed again this morning so I ended up having to buy a shovel anyway. I realized why I don’t drink anymore but I found my 365 Special I though was gone forever digging the snowblower out.

Good morning! I put way to much wood in the stove this morning. Now my bedroom feels good which means the rest of the house is 80+

We've had to open windows from doing that, lol
