What did YOU do today?

I agree. But, only 45 minute round trip to my favorite welding supply house. I can cut it pretty close with no risk.

Plot twist, you run out Saturday night...

Thats how I usually do it, then nobody is open until Monday.

Sitting at the hospital waiting for second colonoscopy because they couldn't see enough on the one I did a few weeks back

Having a bunch of inventory is nice... but it ties up a bunch of dollars for things you may not need for weeks or even a year.

Sometimes that money is better spent on reliable transportation or a home... or maybe a garage... improvements to property.

Not trying to bust anyone's balls... but life is full of priorities.

I watch it closer than that.

Hope it goes well.

I watch it closer than that.

Usually it is me breaking something.

Mower deck belt etc.

cut that rusted bed floor up into patch panels.
sure am glad I'm up to date with tetanus shots.
all it needs now is lots of thaumaturgy.

I found that one while looking up how to spell tetanus.

Thanks for the new word. It describes what I do at work.

Got the headrests off of the bench seat & put the seat cover on. Need to do the door pin hinge bushings next, top drivers door hinge has a lot wear.

Well, turned out I got a barium enema so they could check every inch of my intestine.

If your doc ever says you are getting one, tell them no thanks and you are leaving.

That was probably the worst thing I have ever had done.

Worse then wisdom teeth all being pulled at the same sitting, worse than skin cancer removal multiple times, worse then being in the ICU with covid for 11 days, worse than rolling your ankle and being in a boot for 6 months, worse then accidentally hitting yourself in the mouth with a 1 1/2" wrench while breaking a nut free, worse then accidentally grabbing the blade side of the sawzall with one hand and the trigger with the other. worse than anything I have ever had done.

It was not terribly painful but you get no anesthesia and you are awake the whole time because they have to ask how much air you can get pumped into your stomach till it's uncomfortable after they pump all the barium into your intestine. Then they have you laying in a table and roll you up and down, side to side, feet over head to get the barium into every crevice of your intestine. Next, you have to lay a bunch of weird ways, with a hose still in you while they take pics. Then after about 15 pics from every angle, they deflate the balloon holding the hose in your butt and drain what they can and then tell you to hit the restroom and drain for a while.

But the air they pumped into you doesn't drain so you feel like you are having stomach cramps and want to throw up until the air finally comes out. That's a long time because of how horrible you feel. They do give you a barf bag though so you can go home

That sounds as fun as a barrel of monkeys if you were locked in said barrel... oof...

I got the trailer tire patched, turns out I'd put a rope plug in it at some point before and most of that had fallen out... now it has a big plug patch so it'll at least hold air...

Then I put new wiper blades on the F350 then burned some weeds in the shop driveway since they were growing like weeds... I'll probably do more tomorrow, was getting hard to do while getting dark.

I did finally at least gather the tools from the Camry deal, still need to finish that project and list up the one for parts...

I had this done 30 some years ago & it was worse back then. it`s a good thing the bathroom was next to the procedure room or there would have been a mess on the floor ! BTW, I still have the issue that they were trying to find & correct......
