Major General Shagnasty Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 My business is an legal to be open and today is deposit day. Well the local bank has closed and also the night deposit has a plywood cover over it. So the next bank to take deposits is a 30 mile drive and the only thing open to the public is the drive thru. I am sure glad a brought a good cigar, the wait in line was 1 hour and 26 minutes to get to the vacuum tube. So 2 hrs to make a deposit times $99.58 I hope there is an IRS tax form for that loss.

We'll see if they respond to e-mails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subdeacon Joe Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Slept in until 0515. Got up, had some coffee, fired up the computer to check weather, local news, and The Saloon. Went to work. Kind of slow, left at 1300 to give the wife some relief from the dog - stopped at Safeway on the way home and got toothpaste, some coffee, and a discounted 8 x 8 of cinnamon buns. Got home, took the dog for a nice walk to give the wife some time not hearing the dog bark at everything passing by. Made a dish of Cheesy Potatoes au Gratin (that I just now took out of the oven).

Stopped at the local meat market for some groceries and picked up lunch. Made some more masks in the afternoon before making dinner. Gonna close out the night finishing off the masks I started.

Tequila Shooter Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 I've been busy trying to finish a spring project. It started by scrubbing all the soffits on the house clean, then repaint them. Painted the front and back porch ceilings. Today I started on the back porch concrete floor by renting a paint striping machine and putting it to work. This weekend will be all about striping and preping the concrete. Monday I'll have to etch the floor to prepare for the topcoat. Hopefully by this time next week it'll done. Next on the to do list will be working on the motorhome so when this quarantine is over we can hit the road, I'll need the rest by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackwater 53393 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Woke up around 6:30 and took my daily meds. Went through my morning routine on the confuser. Got dressed and waited for the appliance repair guy to come fix the oven. Put together a bowl of Life cereal while I waited and watched The Price Is Right. Went to the bank to get a cashiers check to pay Whiskey Creek Johnson for a batch of T-shirts he printed for the band, (I ran out of checks). Came home and sliced up three different cheeses to make quesadillas and then baked one for me. Schoolmarm baked a couple more for Hatfield and herself. Gonna’ watch a little TV and maybe read some.

evil dogooder Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Spent most of the day with my dad, converting his house to be handicap accessible in the hopes that if my mother ever does make it home she will have a home ready for her. She's been in the ICU for the last month. Today was the bathroom. Gutted it to the studs then moved two walls. New toilet, tub, shower, sink in and drywall up floor raised. Tomorrow it's sanding, and painting then on to stripping the kitchen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Mailed my taxes in to the IRS and Arizona. Got a total of $291.00 coming back. Paid bills, picked up my dog's heart worm meds, got some groceries, returned a couple of DVDs to the library, worked in the shop on a couple of buildings I'm kit bashing for my toy trains, watched a half dozen episodes of NCIS and two Murdoch Mysteries, made corn meal Johnny cakes and chili for supper, and spent some time on the internet. Time for bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Soothed and tended to my wife Patty who is getting hammered from the side effects of her cancer meds. 5 week cycle of meds, 3 weeks off. Starting our 7th year of that regimen now. It's our normal and most days I don't think about it too much. Today I am for no particular reason, and it sucks. Spoke with my 93-year-old mom this evening who lives in a retirement community. Basically a condominium arrangement. As of today, the residents are confined to quarters as if they're on a cruise ship. Meals are delivered, but they're unable to move about the building as before. She doesn't mind and thinks it's the right call. She's a really sharp gal who knows how to keep herself occupied. Spent part of the day transitioning to a new computer before the old one goes kaput for good. Going great, but the newer operating system and latest version of Adobe software I depend on for business is like learning a new dialect of a somewhat familiar language. When I started in this business 45 years ago (graphic design), the way we do things now was unthinkable. It's like transitioning from biplanes to the jet age. It continues to be a wonderment and fascinating ride. Patty put together a corned beef crockpot stew for dinner this morning. After 8 hours of cooking it was awesome. Enjoyed that whilst watching "Some Like it Hot" on Amazon. Still a great flick after 60+ years. This weekend I intend to continue tweaking my recently-acquired Uberti .44-40 carbine. Put a 5th gen short stroke in it a couple of months ago, but the timing is off just a smidge. Almost there and I'm kinda pumped about how it'll turn out. Hope y'all are staying sane in these strange times. Our best to everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now to explain to my wife why I was out late last night and why I need a $800 advance on my allowance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
