The Czickness LII.2…..the sunshine and roses version.

I live in a hole in the woods. Tried it all over the first decade. Got smart and just mow in one direction or use the backpack blower to move it all into the woods. The last cleanup is usually in December.

I generally blow the leaves out of the beds, mulch them with the mower, blow them into a smaller area, bag them with the mower then use the leaf mulch around my trees and gardens. PIA but between leaf mulch and copious amounts of saw dust have not bought mulch since I have retired. And it keeps me (mostly) out of trouble.

Morning gents!

Wow, that was a cold Halloween night. I figured that we'd have a few hardy kids come around, but we had packs of kids right up to about 7:30p. It was flurrying quite a bit at the end. I stayed outside to hand candy out and chat with neighbors and kept myself warm with a fire and a good size dose of Nikka Barrel Strength whiskey. It was a good combo but at the end of the night, all I wanted to do was climb in bed and warm up.

I did get the yard mulched again yesterday. Weather allowing, I'll do that every other day through most of November to grind the leaves into the lawn. I have not bagged a single bag of leaves in decades. It's good exercise, gives me time to listen to audio books and it helps the lawn. By early December, I have to blow what few leaves remain into a pile before mulching. Towards the end of November, I'll crank the mower height down to near the lowest setting so that any leaves that make their way into the yard over winter will just keep on blowing through to the next yard with grass high enough to catch them.

I have not been carrying much since August this year, but have decided that I need to get back into the EDC discipline. My intent right now is to carry just my A2 Commander for the month of November. I've tried that in the past with various guns and rarely make it through 2 weeks before something else makes it's way into my holster, but with a long break from carry, maybe I'll be more successful at being consistent this time.

Morning all!
Not much sleep last night. My throat was hurting the whole night, but both kids also got up in the night and were having trouble. At 2am I still hadn’t fallen asleep yet and was helping them. When our son cried the second time I woke up my wife and asked her to help him. A few minutes later he was joining our bed, so that makes four because you have to count the cat that makes a large presence. I was able to cobble some sleep together though I woke up 3 or 4 times after I was finally able to get my initial sleep. So my head is pounding this morning, but the good news is that I am working from home today. I am about to get my first cup of coffee, which is great news!

Hope you all get feeling better soon Ben.

Going to turn the remainder of my 30-30 brass into 32-40 today, I now have more 32-40 levers than 30-30.

I'm really trying to get past that 50 quality post requirement. I thought that at least one of those would get me out of the low 20s.

As much as I like you, I had to put you on a list. Say hi to MM and TJ. Now keep it up and find out what happens.



*To everyone else but 88, nothing will happen, but don't tell him that.

88 seems like he may have some lists as well. He is very organized.
