I finally got back out there. Decided to shovel off the part in front of the garage, and redo the path to the grill. Not bad. Four, five, inches total, at this point. A half inch to inch more, since clearing the path in front earlier. I may get back to that, after... some other things.
Finally, I got some things moved around in order to get the miter saw rolling cart into the living room, where there would be room to work with it. It seems lighter, today. I have strength. If I haven't used it in a while, though, it doesn't seem like it. Forty pounds, sixty pounds, a hundred pounds... shouldn't... even be an issue. But, if I have merely been sitting, for weeks? It... even those weights... are annoying. Today, tossing the things that... annoyed me just a day or two ago... is simple. Hmm, okay.
Once the rolling base is together, I'll get the saw out there, and get it attached. The nice thing is, the saw locks up tightly, and the stand becomes a sort of dolly come-along and rolls where. Not only making it mobile, but rather compact for storing when not in use. I... like this thing. As well, it includes rales, to feed materials in. Rails? Probably rails. Could rale about rails though? Bah.
I could... read the instructions. But... why. Someone has probably done it, reading instructions or not, and posted a vid. Why... reinvent the wheel, even with instructions. If I want to solve puzzles, I'll buy puzzles. I don't want to solve puzzles, especially when attached to things with 12" blades that could cut me in half given half a chance.
After I get the thing together, before working on the saw, I'll see about the grill. It may be out. I don't have more lighter fluid. Hmm... Will see.
Either way, if it's going, I'll get the saw together and attached, in a better mood. I'm hungry? Or wanting? Maybe needing some meat. Though I can go without, if need be. After a shower, though, I... might try to get to town, pick up more fluid, carbonated water, and fresh lettuce.
Hmm... electricity died, just for a blink. Rather than wait for everything to start back up, I checked on the grill. It was pretty much... not going to make it. But I found a way around that. Will check shortly, again. Though, too, I cleared the walk again. Opening up space on the grass, for an easier walk. If he wants that. The the drive and sidewalk are open, if that is his druthers.
Now I'll look up a video for putting the base together, putting the saw together, and connecting the two. ... Found it. And have the base together. Plus, know how to put the saw on it. Just need a break. Some air. Very good.
Oh? I started seeing mice back. When it gets cold, or snowy, they come. I kill them off, and they stay out for a while. Then... they get back in. Will... be looking for ways to keep them out a bit better while doing other things. I've gotten rid of five. But no traps have gone off for a bit. Still, will keep them out, move them, here and there... until I forget, lose track, only to find the traps filled, at some time later. Hmm, may give it three days, then just decock them, and set them aside. Hate finding well dead mice. Ugh. Later.
Hamburger and sauerkraut, bleagh, not feeling it, I'll force some more in. Fat poured over dogfood, and some leftover fries I'll never eat, ready to share if they show up.
ReplyDeleteThat knee high sock did wonders... but now the itching has started. Not needing to limp, step through the pain. Healing?
Will whistle the dogs... They're here... I don't think they like the fries too much (neither do I). Gone again, someone is going after the "fatted" kibble. As long as they are happy.
I finally got that steak cooked. Had to tinker with the grill, to get it to be warm enough. Then overdid it just a bit. Still raw, mostly. But I like it... rawer. Even so, no real complaints. It did well. I could only eat half, but it was very good, needed, wanted.
ReplyDeleteI have half of one for, probably, tomorrow. I'd like to boil more eggs, to have a few eggs now and again, even with the steak as a side. Best put the rest of the steak in a bag and up.
I fed Sassy. She just won't eat my food often. *sigh* Hmm... I wonder if I have apple sauce!?! Not... carnivore, but sometimes I need a little more.
Fatted kibble. Hmm... I wonder what I could add to cat treats that would do like that. Cat's are true carnivores, dogs can get away with omnivore behavior. What fat did you use?
Used the fat juice from the hamburger, just poured it over. The old days, I'd have sopped it up with bread and butter. Better for the dogs than me. Added a handfull of shredded cheese to the (now) cold burger-n-kraut... that's now gone cold. working on it.
ReplyDeleteAh. Haven't cooked burger in a while. But... may try that in the future... see if she'll eat that. It's difficult when one can't eat fast enough to eat warm food.
ReplyDeleteEven my steak... If the last bite is too cold I just spit it out and stop. Kills my appetite. Then again, if it got cold, I assume my appetite was pretty much finished anyway.
Hmm, yes. Lettuce, burger, and if I can find real rennet cheddar cheese, I'll shred some of that. Spice the burger... taco salad sounds good. Plus... then I could find out if Sassy will eat burger juice on her kibbles. She's... fussy though. Will see.
