I love stuff like that. I'll have to take a picture of my old store fixture/furniture that I keep tools in. It is really one of those "envy me, bitches" pieces if you have tools and need lots of space to store them. My parents got it in 1970 or so and I coveted it for decades. I got it maybe 13-14 years ago. I took it Out West last year and put it in properly blocked and level and then loaded it to the gills.


Worked all day. Welding for 3 hours afterwards. Sleeping like the dead here in a few minutes.

Yeah.... he put it in the shed. Now I have to figure out where I want it.... and that 2x4 is a piece of old barn wood.... he had to use an impact drill to get the 3 inch screws through it and in to the shed studs.... it is going no where..... I will take a pic later and show you. The end is cut a little crooked but it is from my dad so who cares.....

Morning - hope everyone is properly (at least sufficiently) caffeinated by now

Yes'm, it was. Those two bolted through a five pound bag in less than three minutes, I wager.

Hope that soft treat didn't upset their systems any
I suppose 5 pounds for horses is a different serving than for humans?

IDK who he is!

Me either... figured since that was the topic

Sorry. Didn't mean to rant...

You're among friends here. (((@ImpishSeraph )))

I think you’re setting a boundary.

Yep - that's what it feels like to me, too
Not always easy... some are resistant
my mom was the same w/ certain things - more than once I had to say "I love you but I need to leave now"

My app has a "cross off" feature! So satisfying to see what I've gotten done!

Ohh, fancy! And that's the "satisfying" piece missing from mine

Good morning IS. Have a good day Wat. And slept in so I missed Lilli. I also miss OM.

I am fasting and no coffee as I go for a blood draw this morning. . The lab opens in an hour. Will take a coffee thermos with me.

How delicious was that coffee, B2?

Good luck today B2.

Tell us exactly how good that coffee taste after your draw!

GMTA

I miss OM too. I hope she's back soon. I hate having to fast coffee. Food I'm ok with but that morning cup is horrible. I have to schedule my blood work, so I do it at 5:30 when they open and try to just wake up and go. I always looked like I rolled out of bed when I do that

Hmm... don't know if the Beetlejuice Treatment will work or not??

8 tubes of blood they took from my body this morning but the thermos of coffee was the car. I drank with gusto .

Ready for the day. Sunshine and beautiful weather and GF.

Glad you finally got your coffee...
Those fasting labs are important but a hassle

That is funny because all my friends no matter where I lived have always called me sunshine or suni. I must be a big fucking ray of sunshine! Don't get it quite honestly, but it is weird how that term always finds me

I was gifted this mug a few years ago... don't think it was b/c of my smile

Good morning

morning - how's the day treating you so far?
More importantly, what are you cooking today?

I sent her a dm...no reply. I wonder what happened.... hope she is ok

Miss her, too, MissK

Good morning and welcome, @JuanVato
In case you're new to the Café, let me welcome you and provide our standard message for newcomers:

Welcome to the café.

We conduct ourselves a bit differently here than most of the rest of Lit.

Post #1 introduces the joint... and glancing back over the last 10-20 pages provides additional context.

To be clear:
1. No religion 2. No politics 3. No drama 4. This isn't a hook up thread. Take it to the DMs or go somewhere else.

Everyone is welcome but we are protective of the vibe

This applies to all who visit this thread.
If this feels like a good match, welcome...
If not then please see yourself to the door

Hope you settle in and stay a while, but we realize this may not be a good fit for everyone.

I feel the same way!

 

[HumpDayHoratio]

I appreciate that. I feel so mean and expected to be told I was. My friend said the same thing you did. Said I wasn't being mean if I made myself very clear 3 years running. I just don't like not being comfortable around them.

Don’t feel like you’re being mean…just realize you’ve set the boundaries and they haven’t seen the markers yet. It’s tough…I’ve had to do it. Just know they mean well, love you, and just are trying to help…even if they’re not.

Supposed to be winging on the Big Ol’ Jet Airliner now but they swapped my schedule and (knock on wood) might just have a free day at home! Got some things done this a.m. so the Morning Z is Afternoon Z…again…starting to become a habit

Fingers crossed! It looks like it might pan out. They rarely ever do this, so I’m guessing something happened on the schedulers part. Either way, enjoying the day. It was 68 this morning, moved some of my planters up on the flagstone and pulling this backyard back together.

 

[Greylag]

They aren't mean, just medaling. I actually lucked out with the parents. They are awesome. I told them from the get go 3 years ago that this was not something I was going to talk to them about. They had to help me when he stole the 45k because I was supposed to be used it to get the roof fixed (I only borrowed what insurance didn't pay for).

I upset my mom last night She called and we started off with a nice conversation and all of a sudden she asked if I finally got my child support. Like auto pilot I started explaining and then caught myself and yelled (I lost my temper ) No, I told you that I will not discuss this anymore! It's over divorce is final, and everything is taken care of. That's when she started in on me never coming over, doesn't understand why I don't talk to them about it, don't like them anymore ect ect. Still upset I said, it's been 48 hours since we talked, Don't like coming over because this is where the conversation turns. Not sure why I don't want to talk about it with them but I don't. She said "I see I've made you mad now so I'm going lo let you go." So I said "Ok mom, love....*cliick* she hung up on me. I felt so mean. I've made myself clear to them about this 3 years ago though and every 48 hrs to a week since.

Sorry. Didn't mean to rant...

At least 4 killed in Georgia high school shooting​

https://www.cnn.com/us/live-news/apalachee-high-school-shooting-georgia-09-04-24/index.html

Four people were killed in a shooting at Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia, according to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. Another nine people have been taken to hospitals with injuries, the bureau said. Barrow County Sheriff Jud Smith said described the day’s events as “an evil thing.”

Something for Wat to appreciate. What can I say, I'm a giver.

Started at the castle today then away to the hill. Those hills seem to be getting harder each year. Every bone aches today

 

[Wat_Tyler]

That looks way better than putting up with a bunch of worker bees. That said, we had a good number of worker bees today, plus the architect, and the safety inspector. We actually got some shit done. Sometimes, I get the feeling that getting shit done is what the bosses expect to have happen. I’m not sure where I got that thought, however.


Perhaps we all can have a weasel in our casserole.

I'd take that any day in preference to living under a cloud!

I prefer clouds as to 100 degree sauna. I guess we always want what we don't have

I think any extreme would get on my nerves. I need to live somewhere that I can have 4 seasons instead of one.
