I turned the alarm off this morning, but woke up at the normal time anyway, so I'm up.

Not much "planned", but lots to do. With this being Lent, I'll try to go to daily Mass, when possible. Today I'll make it, it's a t 8am. Then back to the shop where at least three projects await advancement.

It's been especially dry around here and besides taking it's toll on everything you normally would think, it's also affecting my hands. The past month they have really hurt. They crack and bleed...and even if they don't they throb and just plain hurt. I usually have 6-7 bandaids, between the two hands, on most of the time.

Well got to get ready too go. I'll check back later. Have a great day.

Howdy! Home once more, the grindstone has been turning since the opening bell. Looking forward to the weekend - the weather geniuses are promising warmth.

Mmmmmmm, bacon:

Good Morning CGs!

I'm pulling a TB this morning, wife and I need to drive to the "city" for supplies

TB, my hands have a lot of cracking and dryness, too. I just started using the "Eucerin Intensive Repair" lotion and it works really well. They sell it at any target, Walmart, etc. You might want to check it out.

Sunny out now and should be nice today.

Hope everyone has a great day!

I have been there back in the day when my lust for bacon was fighting with what I knew was right.....we used to wear shopping coats though.....big trench coats with pockets on the inside also........got a little weird when we used to wear them in the summer though......

Clear as a bell here today......but cold also...... Got word they are just finishing up the tune on my Grand Sport....so it will be back the first of next week. Looks like I will miss the 75 degree temps this weekend though....nuts......no comment from them on what the dyno reads are.....

Have a great Trump day Guru's......

I haven't been feeling my best of late but still it's far from feeling the worst. I'll do what I can do.

I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT "BAG BALM" IS GOOD FOR THAT.
THE ONLY TAURUS I HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE WITH IS THEIR LITTLE-BITTY .380 POCKET PISTOL. BY MOST ACCOUNTS THEY MAKE GOOD WORK-A-DAY GUNS FOR A REASONABLE PRICE.

HERE'S SOME GOOD NEWS:
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2 ... -scraps-ban-lead-bullets/

AND LESS GOOD, THE OKC DISTRICT ATTORNEY IS SUDDENLY INVESTIGATING THE STATE SENATOR WHO IS PUSHING CIVIL FORFEITURE REFORM. DA'S ARE MAJOR PROFITEERS FROM FORFEITURE, BUT THAT'S JUST A COINCIDENCE I'M SURE.

AND IN COURT:
ATTORNEY: What was the first thing your husband said to you that morning?
WITNESS: He said, 'Where am I, Cathy?'
ATTORNEY: And why did that upset you?
WITNESS: My name is Susan!

Can I ever get a day to do what I planned?

Answer: NO!

The problem is that this is one of my major piss offs. I don't like being pulled away from a job to work on a job. Speaking of work. Sue always brings home "good deals" that always require some effort or work. I can't even catch up on the stuff that's here and she brings home more. Aaaahhhhh! Rigginfriggin sassafrasson shidilibop.

Lots done this morning. Hands and fingers still hurt. I've tried that stuff before, Gris. It worked OK for a little while, but like everything I've tried, quits working after a while.

tee, wipe your hands with vaseline and put on a pair of sterile vinyl gloves when you go to sleep. That's one of Sue's tricks.

We can't all have soft, crack free hands like Tommy. Some of us have to work for a living
