    A few days ago, I did all of the electrical wiring on a new pole barn. Then spent the last three days on a chainsaw clearing out some woods to get a well drilling rig to the build site. I guess that's manly. I could sure use a shave now...

    No I didn't. If I hadn't disabled it, the bullets would have just bounced off.

    In PA at Lancaster Archery. Shooting at longer distances for the first time in 2 years. And my arrows are even landing where I aim them.

    jaro the dread and the fear

    Well during my latest adventures , I tried to help my parents again with some more "minor" pipe leaks even though my shoulder isn't completely healed from the last time I messed up my shoulder.. So , I basically reinjured my shoulder AGAIN !! This time I even managed to dislocate my shoulder !! So in my " infinite wisdom " I decided to take a page from Lethal Weapon and do like Riggs and went to a edge of the wall and pop it back in myself !! It worked because it isn't popped out of place any more but now I have the ache from having done that.. Maybe the pain will subside sooner this time... My heating pad loves me though as it's been getting more use lately.....Oh and I wound up getting a plumber in to do the work and since I noticed there are some more connectors needing replacement ( but not leaking yet ) the plumber is gonna come back and fix those too as soon as I feel good enough to cut out some more sheet rock ( The plumber told me that if I already had the sheet rock cut out then it would cost ALOT less than if he has to do it... ) We had to get a different plumber this time as the one we previously had has retired , The plumber we got this time seems really nice and has some pretty good rates as the whole repair only cost 117.40 cents for replacing multiple connectors and pipe in 2 different places and was done in less than 30 minutes !! I saw the PEX pipe connector crimper he used and asked him about it and he told me where I could get one of those and what it was called .. His was called a one handed pex pipe connector crimper and is alot smaller that the big 2 handed pro one I had currently been using.. It looks like it is a lot easier to use too !!

    Getting back to the question-I had some work done on my car today...It's been my favorite car.(Sorry @jaro, I see you got back the question before I did. Sorry about your shoulder.)
