NO overtime?

Since I had me windshield time last week to garner Iowa (almost Minnisota) I would have wracked up almost 15 hours overtime. That is a huge NO NO...... Not my fault but I did end up with 5/6 hours o.t. and off friday, and whole weekend. Not too bad a deal..... Need to get some things done around the house I didn't do while I was off almost 3 months with my back. Some pressure washing to get done, and some stain to get on the S.W. corner of the house.
Weather say's we may have some nights here shortly near the 40's???? I need to start getting some firewood back here too. Gonna feel nice with a boogered up back.

Well more stone/rock work on the front porch this am, then shot some guns this pm. My new DPMS AR-15, and 9mm, and Penny shot her Tarus 9mm.

She does not like the trigger pull, might get her a 380? But the new 16 gauge pump and the the Kel-tec PLR-16 are real go getter's.

Then made race laps around the front yard cutting the grass, going to get a 79 Ford 400with 4spd and 205 xfer case, moter,tranny and xfer case only on tuesday.

The price is right and the location ain't to bad, I gott go sortof that way anyway. I will get to working on the Ford trucks after all the house stuff is done.

Later all, Rich&Penny
