    decided my stock was done..12 sandings and 12 coats of polyurethane sure look nice

    but what made me happy was after about an hour of cleaning and polishing down the action for a re-blueing it turns out the crack that made this gun so cheap is actually just a deep scratch that is almost removed

    my indoor vegetables are sprouting. cabbage, lettuce, a bull's horn pepper, and some mint.

    and I got my bed repaired. I'm a hard sleeper, and the other day the slats on my foundation for under my mattress finally fully gave. so after getting a plywood cut to size and screwed to the foundation frame... I have a bed again, and not a ridiculous mattress behaving like a hammock

    No, never. Not at a bank, not at a fast food place.

    I've noticed some slight pessimism in your posts from time to time but this response clearly demonstrates that you are ever more the optimist than I.

    Only slight? ;)

    I am always eternally grateful to be alive. If you can feel pain then you know you're alive. See, even though I may focus on the darker aspects of life from time to time there's still an underlying optimism there somewhere

    Also, if i'm correct about the underlying meaning of your post and you are insinuating that you are not happy to wake up....then I sincerely hope something brings you a bit of joy soon friend

    Pickles are underrated. Only recently have I come to realize how much I like them.

    My mom made fantastic pickles. Cucumbers, garlic and dill were all grown in our garden. I still have her recipe. Indeed, I have all of her recipes. I should give it a try sometime.

    Put new wheels on my BBQ today. Now I can actually roll it around for the first time. That was very satisfying.
