Drew, I hope you heed your own warning.... no heavy lifting today! Take it easy at a nice pace.

I have, so far....thanks. Helper did all the carrying but I've been on my feet too long and can't stand any more so I came in for a break, after giving
helper long list of things to do. Got about half the garage done, rest I have to do myself like sort through paint cans and figure out what to keep.

Maybe this afternoon I'll plant some flowers. They are jumping up and saying Plant Me!

made a trip to dump while I had helper, the pollen is super heavy, came in and washed face, get the stuff out of my eyelashes. Very sticky gold stuff.
Ah choo.

Roy the M&P 22 my wife got is very smooth out of the box but she has range lesson to take first and learning how to take care of

I assume you're writing about the handgun and not the rifle. My Ruger SR22 was also a very smooth little pistol right from day one...great little shooter and I hope your wife's M&P is just as good.
BTW, anyone looking for a .22LR pistol...always suggest you get a threaded barrel, if available. If you ever decide to get a suppressor, you'll be ready.

I cleaned and lubed my little Kahr CW380. A bit easier to rack the slide and release the slide release... Way too mucky to drive down (or even walk down) to the field to put some rounds through it :(
This is a picture off the internet, not mine. I'll never think this is a "fun" gun to shoot, but it'll be mighty handy for warm weather pocket carry

Always seemed to me the smaller the gun the harder it was to aim, normally
so I'm assuming a laser sight would make a small gun much more effective.
Just get the dot on them. Unless you are going to try to shoot someone through your pocket like
they always show in the movies, with remarkable aim too...

my phone has been going off from the City of Washington alerting through their system about now this park and this Library are now closed,
until further notice. Things are shutting down. Like after a heavy snow. And a flood of emails from everyone including the bank concerned for my welfare.
Garden Club shut down, this outing and that outing cancelled. So I'm getting notified to death...I bet you are too.

out to plant dahlias and zinnias, maybe a snapdragon or two. Slowly and on my knees in the cool earth. Life is good.

67°F and .34 inches rain. Hope wx allows me to work on the catchment install. Could be challenging working on gutters if raining

Nice gravel RNG. Looks like what we call 3/4 inch base.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

That's true about aiming, but these little pistols are really for up close and personal work...more likely to point shoot rather then aim.
I have lasers on two...a Ruger SR9 (full sized and sighted in at 6-7 yards) and a Kahr CW9 which is a bit bigger then the .380 model. The SR9 is not carried too often...more often the CW9 and, once proven to be reliable, the CW380
BTW, you can shoot a revolver through a pocket if absolutely necessary. The confines of a pocket would, most likely, prevent a semi-auto from cycling.
CW9 (9mm) top...has laser sights, CW380 is the lower pistol

I'm back from North Bay. I went early and things were quiet, but the hordes of lemmings were just coming into town as I was leaving. 0 clorex wipes or any other wipes except for baby wipes and very little TP, but I got what I went for.

I'm done for the day outside, got flowers planted, ready for tonight's rain.
Nothing thrown out of wack, fun day outside.

Roy, I've been studying some of the videos on pistols using non lethal ammo.
We still aren't there with a decent stun gun, you'd think someone would make a decent non lethal gun or device.
I know we have tasers, which I don't think I can own,

I've been reading sci-fi for too long, they had stun guns when I was a kid reading Heinlein.
They usually have three settings, stun (say for ten minutes), severe stun (nighty night) or lethal.
Awfully hard to make the right decision at the right time. Something any LEO deals with every day.
And any of you who carry arms. One of which may save my life some day in a public setting.
And if you are unlucky even yours. I can really see why folks who live near wild pigs, coyotes, mountain lions, you name it,
you don't want to be caught out alone in a bad situation with one. Me, I'd like to stun it, not kill it. Wonder if they make bear size...

grill should be hot enough now, have some Bubba's veggie burgers to throw on for a late lunch.
They were a little more expensive but look pretty good.
Have been burning the crud off and it is time to get cooking.
