I need to change Sassy's food,. For a little dog she has some of the worst gas.

Sixty years ago, I was living in a house trailer (before they invented mobile homes) and had a little terrior that I started feeding Gravy Train dog food; one that you stir water into. She loved it, but the odor, even outside in a pen she used, was so bad that I changed dog foods and haven't used Gravy Train since.:laughing:

Good morning to all! Temp went to the low 50s last night, great sleeping weather with the windows open. Today, the expected high should be around 95. Then dropping like a rock tomorrow night. Our Daytime high for Wednesday is forecast for 52! Denver is expecting 7" of snow Tuesday night! Crazy!

I woke up at 4 am..... really?.... rolled over and slept until Max stuck his nose under the blanket.... come on!, come on! I got up and put them out, then went back to bed.... slept 'til 7:30.... felt good !

Drinking the first cup of coffee, trying to get motivated to go move the oak boards and unload the pellets. I have not seen the boys stirring yet, so I probably have a little time on my side.....

Once that is done, Maybe some more organization...... there is a "garden tool area" in the other side of the garage / shop that is in dire need of organizing. Quite a bit of old weekwacker parts and misc saws, pole saws, loppers....

Tonight, I am going to follow Drew's grilling adventures and have some Angus burgers, corn on the cob, and Tater Tots.... yes Tater Tots on the grill! I have a small 7x9 1" deep baking tray they go in..... mmmm, mmmmm, they get a nice smokey flavor. Even the wifey likes them. Of course, she will make up her assortment of "grasses" (as she calls her 'salad').... Then top it all off with some fruit smoothies made with some fine Jamaican Rum!

Everyone have a great day!

On the Big Green Eggers old site there were some guys who were smoking bacon wrapped tater tots. Sounded great but quite a ways outside my dietary boundaries. My wife does fix them in the air fryer occasionally and I really like them but sure would like the bacon wrapped.

Well I did the deed this morning. My first home haircut. I ordered a Wahl color pro kit from Walmart for 25$. Spread out a sheet in the kitchen set a chair on it and went to it. I did it mostly by feel. A mirror would help. The instructions suggested starting with the longest comb attachment and practicing. in my kit that was a number 8 which is one inch. Not bad. I might get my wife to help next time and then we can really get fancy. The thing will pay for itself in 2 cuts. I feel so much better. Of course my wife says she likes my hair longer. I was starting to think if I got some orange dye I could get a job with the circus.

I already have my Walmart Wahl paid for with the 2 haircuts. I do the sides and top and my wife uses 3 different numbers on the back.

Oooooo.... that sounds delicious..... I wish I heard this sooner. I fried up a pound of bacon yesterday for breakfast, saving over half to put on the burgers tonight and broken up in the wifey's 'grasses'....
I hope I remember for next time....

Yep... me too! I have had it for about the last 6 years. Since I worked in EMS, I cut it "crew style" , but very short.... just the clipper head, no depth gauge.
I got very used to it being short, when it's about 1/4 to 3/8", I feel that it is "long"! :eek: Considering my hair in the 70's was shoulder length, I really like it buzzed now.

I haven't been to a barbershop in probably 20 years now....

Chris, glad you got your haircut. I'm just not coordinated to do everything "backwards"...

partially successful morning. Went to HF and picked up a powerwasher on sale for 79 bucks after reading all the positive reviews. Can't imagine
existing without one...and of course both of mine got sold. I had an AR (Italian water pump maker) power washer with almost the same specs for 60 dollars more and twice the cheap hose broke, so figured at this price point all the hoses are junk so might as well save money.
175 PSI 1.3 GPM Corded Electric Pressure Washer
Also got four moving blankets on sale and a couple of cheap tarps, all for the move.

Came home to email from realtor saying home I wanted to look at this week is under contract. Disappointing but no surprise; just not buying a house without seeing it first.
Another one will come up, realtor has me on "watch", and hopefully one with a garage.
And lesson of all this is to ask for 90 day termination on rental home.

Was up too early for a holiday. Installed a new 3ft man door on the church barn, the barn I installed 5 garage doors on a few years ago. We are going to put new vinyl siding on the front. The guy who bought the door didn’t notice a big scratch on one side. Oh well, it’s a barn.

Son has college classes today. We were going to grill burgers for lunch, now wife says later.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day
