I got a second sewing machine today. They count as power tools and I now have 2 that do the same thing (sort of).
2 Manly Things Done Today: 1)-purchased a real nice replacement desk lamp(was kinda getting tired of using my big flashlight to assist). 2)-went to the Senior Center and walked a few laps of the place. Good exercise. I will try to do this at least once weekly.
Washed and waxed my car, cleaned carport and back porch, and helped a relative unload a trailer full of house furniture. I’m beat and now watching NFL playoff football.
Despite being 22F, I decided it would be a good day to clean the garage. Spent about 6 hours on it after an hour on the 29er in the woods. In order to keep myself happy, I also smoked a pastrami on the kamado.
Coffee is about as strong as it gets here. I can't even remember my last beer let alone that stuff.... Sorry for the bad pic, but it got dark out before it finished. Just a little guy abut 2.5lbs smoked with some cherry wood at 250F until it reached an internal temp of 195F about 8.5 hours on the smoker. I wrapped it and need to rest it for a day before slicing.
I work in the science field and my thrifty (cheap) boss had purchased a light weight mechanics cart from Harbor Freight. Well the drawer glides failed and they were going to throw it out, so I asked if I could take it. My son and daughter in-law are expecting their first child (our first grandchild), so I fixed the drawer bought a pad and made it in to a changing table. Plenty of room for diapers / wipes in the lower area and a drawer for potions, lotions and ointments. Some may say it's redneck, but I prefer utilitarian.
Congratulations on the grandchild and very clever! I feel like something's missing tho.... maybe this as an add on?
