    I understand the concept behind “ it bleeds it leads”... This scares the He11 out of me!! The right hand left hand dealings that are going on because of it all should scare the HE11 out of you also.

    First day of school for the kiddos! Now to finally have some free time to fiddle and play with gear :)
    Nothing like sewing while watching/ listening to Netflix, and sketching
    / planning all at the same time and not having the kiddos bug me :)

    My kid is on a field work research trip this week and moves back into her dorm this weekend. The house is once again teenager free and clothing optional...

    It appears that the bodies of the two Canadian murderers have been found. Thankfully no other innocence people were hurt.

    $35 a piece to have 2 rifles headspace checked.. Not so much!
    $32 per gauge x2 gauges much more practical :) now I’ll be able to check as many barrels as often as I want :) Yes please!

    It's official and the puzzle is 100 percent complete. Just like I thought and knew already, he is my father. 20190810_102048.jpg

    Congrats that you figured out the puzzle. I know he's been adamant he wasnt but siblings felt the way you do. How did he take it? (If its not too personal)

    Thanks. Yes my sister and 5 brothers are pretty happy and dad is actually happy also. He was just going by what the adoption papers said about his description, which it wasn't him she was describing. But he's welcoming, loving, caring and can't wait to meet me.

    I am very happy for you mate !! If it is good news to you both then even more so. Not wanting to disrupt lives is one of the reasons I have never pursued my biological family. That, and unlike many other adopted children, there has never been a feeling of emptiness of something missing. But yes, I am truly happy for you as I do understand this.

    The humidity is higher than the temperature.


    Sticky.



    At least now that the sun has gone down the heat index is down to 97....

    thank you mate! You are fortunate not to have those feelings, and I'm glad that you don't. As far as disrupting lives, that is a chance for sure. However, you may not either and they may be looking for you also. From what I've experienced and seen from other adopted friends, someone from your biological family will be more than accepting. I'm lucky that I got the response I did, especially from my dad's side.

    thank you also!

    WifeOfSteel wanted a garden so I decided to build her a small raised garden box. Full 4x8’ by 15” deep. Raised up 8” off the ground to keep small ground animals out. Should have dirt later this week and then I’ll put the deer fence around it.
