    Well the paper tape is really cheap and all it does is hold gauze in place. It's one of the most used types of tape.

    Angry, or calm?
    Just black and white words on a screen.
    Not like a conversation in person, with facial expressions, body language, tone of voice.

    Still, we here pretty much slide along without issues.
    Imagine how well we could get along in person.

    Or, we would just think each other is a bunch of assholes

    Been germinating and replanting the germinated seeds. It has been an effort that I hope will pay off.
    The tallest oak in the forest was once just a nut who held its ground.

    Be decisive. Right or Wrong, make a decision. The road of life is paved with flat squirrels who could not make a decision.

    Planted the tomatoes this week. Tomorrow I am going to plant the rest of the garden.

    Finally got off my rear end and ordered everything I need for the mountain bikes, tires, tubes, lights as well as a rack which will hold about 125 lbs and a folding basket for the rear rack. The wife has said she wants to become more active so I figured it was a way to justify buying everything. I am looking at getting some panniers for each of the bikes.

    Took the jeep in to have some work done on it. The wife wanted to get rid of it but since then her car has been acting up and it gave me an excuse to keep it as an extra vehicle. Since it is paid off she couldn't complain. I told the mechanic I wasn't in a hurry, he is a friend who does great work. He will be keeping it at his shop for the time being. As I get more money I will be having him do more work. So when it comes back it should make a good all around vehicle.

    So if it is predictable and preventable then you better prepare.

    Got some trigger time in today, and so did my 6 year old. He shot a handgun for the first time, which was super fun for him, and like defusing nuclear warheads for me. Lol. A relative by marriage is a competitive shooter, and I got to run his glock 34 for a while. RMR cut slide, lightened slide, trigger work, match barrel, extended mags, really nice stipple job, etc.

    10 more pepper plants this week, 7 more mater plants, planted some more mixed greens (mesculin) and added 8 large 14x14x14" pots to the planting space for peppers and herbs. Also planted a German thyme next to my existing one (it was a gift, so why not expand my supply?) and a purple basil. This week I need to cut back my Russian tarragon, dry some, and transplant some. It's tasty, and it grows 24/7 365, it might be my most indestructible plant. I dug a sucker from the big blackberry that found its way into a raised bed 2 weeks ago, and it's doing well, so woohoo free blackberry plant. That makes 8 total now. Tomorrow I have to bird net my strawberries. The mockingbirds are doing a number on them regardless of the constant yard cat patrol.

    I got my Glock 19 out of layaway and have gotten a couple hundred rounds through it so far. I'm really glad I went with 9mm. Ammo is cheaper and I seem to shoot it a little better than my .40. Got up early this morning, and got some squash, okra, tomatoes and peppers in the ground.

    Finally getting my concealed weapons permit. Had one years ago in Louisiana, but have not got one since I moved to Texas years ago. Not a perfect target, but not to bad either. We shoot from 3, 7 and 15 yards. Not the best shooting, but not bad either. Only one person beat me, and if I had not thrown that one shot, I would have tied him. Score was 248, still not exactly sure how it is scored.

    What were you shooting with?
    They say that the cockroaches will be the last creature alive on this earth.
    I intend on being the last person alive still stomping cockroaches.
