Building the kids a new tree house, got quite a bit of it done today, done some weed eating while Rose mowed, then done a bit of landscaping at the flower shop.

I'll be top dressing the yard around my house today with three different types of compost............Yes.....bought compost. I can't make it on the scale I used to do.

All are very nicely finished compost and I'm going to test each in a different area to see which one works best in this dang low humus acidic sandy soil. I'm mainly shooting for better water retention, but I'l take the increased fertility also.

I only grow in living soil!

Technically I did it yesterday.  I would call it a moderate mid life crisis move.  I joined a golf club.  A country club, full membership.  I am single right now and have been battling the dating world for a bit, was even trying to re-connect with an ex that lead me on a rollercoaster of emotions.  It has left me frustrated and emotionally exhausted.  Lately it seems like the only time I am happy (other than when slaughtering randoms on the streets of LS) is when I am playing golf in the beautiful California weather. 

So this is my therapy.  I joined yesterday after work and played 18 holes right away.  I played 18 holes in 2 hours and 20 minutes because the course is typically pretty empty after 4pm being a private golf course.  It was the best thing for me and I cannot wait to get back out there. 

It is called Butte Creek Country Club in Chico CA. 

Here is the little creek. Thankfully my ball stayed dry yesterday...

So @pete_95973, you are saying you traded the emotional rollercoaster of an ex for the emotional rollercoaster of golf? You know.."man that was a sweet tee off" to "fuck this game"

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

Lol good point Hatch. Back in the day I was kind of that way. Being older and wiser now I really don't care that much about my score and how I play so much. Just enjoy being out there.

Fixed my Xbox One (again) so far it's needed the bluray drive dismantling and cleaning and today it was powering off after a few minutes. I've replaced the thermal paste on the CPU/GPU and all seems well (for now). 

I think this is some sort of punishment for going to the dark side :lol: either that or it explains it's super cheap secondhand price.

Two loads of laundry (washed, dried, and folded), banking, grocery shopping (at 2 different stores), fed the cats I am pet sitting, made lunch, and checked in on Facebook, me email acct., and "here".  And it isn't even 2pm here. :)

This evening I made a box out of a wooden pallet and fixed it to the rack of one of my many old bikes. Now I can ride to the village shop for beers without the fear of a plastic bag splitting!

All that's missing is some paint and a label 'Beer box' on it.

Almost have the kids tree house done, worked on it for quite a while today.

 

Almost fired the electrician that is wiring the new flower shop, he can't seem to get the concept that the drywall will be 1/2 inch thick, so all the outlet boxes and light boxes should be sticking out a 1/2 inch so they end up being flush with the drywall. AND when asked why he didn't put the closet lights in the center of the closet instead of the most convenient ceiling joist, his reply was nobody will notice it in a closet.....I NOTICED MOTHERFUCKER!!

 

Almost have the covering done on the plane I am rebuilding, and ate 2 hot pockets

Since I didn't post anything yesterday I guess now is the best time to do so.

Yesterday was a good day, celebrated my birthday with friends at work and when I got home I had a party with family. Work was good except the fact that I may have fractured my foot after accidentally running it over with a pallet-jack while trying to move something to the back of the store. Other than that accident I had a great day yesterday, I wish I could have spent it with crew as well but I'm sure I'll be able to join something today to have fun.

Well, today and a few days before.

Found out why it rain inside, old technique and old stuff.

Had it fixed and then tested with new heavy rain the first night, worked!

Cleaned the well (our drinking water) with chlorine and put a new lid on it.

Played GTA too late last night and fell asleep on the beach today.

After more than two years, and despite having a good grasp of English, I realised what "JustHatched" means. I didn't saw the word anywhere, nor consulted a dictionary, as I always knew what "hatch", the verb, means. I just weirdly never connected it to it's past tense, and confused hatched with hatchet all this time.

I use to breed parrots, was a username I picked for browsing parrot forums and just stuck with it.

 

The last few days and been fun filled shopping days. Rose and I are working on getting everything gathered for the new flower shop when it opens. You really don't realize how much shit you had until you scramble your brains trying to replace it all.

Is the "dope" as nasty as it was back in the day?

You also don't realize how much crap you have until you have to pack it up and move!: GRIMACE :

Went to the indoor free flight national championships today, these planes are not rc, they are rubber band powered works for engineering. The video is one I took today (short) of the 2015 World Champ. It is hand made and can fly up to 57 minutes and weighs 1/16 of an ounce

Setup a new, smaller pool then I had intended on this year. My step dad bought my mother a bigger pool last year for christmas, and then in return, she gave her old big pool to my daughter. When we were going to pick it up, 7 hours away, mom called and told us that step-dad ruined it getting it out of the garage. Settled for getting a 3 foot deep, 8 foot around small pool to cool off in for the rest of the summer. Was definitely needed today! (((Seriously thinking about putting a tarp in the bed of my truck and letting it hang over the edges, and fill it with water lol)))

 

Also, got a response for being a GM on another one of my favorite games. They had open GM applications last week, of which they received over 100. Today, I received a notice that I had made it to the final 25 applications being reviewed. It is a game I no longer play, due to maxing out three characters on it, and fully being able to solo every boss in the game. This is what I usually do with PC games.... work on maxing a characters level, using that character to farm for in game currency, then buy gear for said character, then use that character to "tank" mobs in game, while I dual log and use new character to kill and level. Then use Character 1 and 2 together (Usually tank and healer) to farm in game currency and drops. Then build character 3 as the best solo boss build in game. Tadda, third character - max level - geared. Solo bosses until best gear in game for all three classes. Done, put game down, apply for GM or ADMIN or DEV position. :D

I did not shower.

I actually haven't taken a shower in a few days. Looking at the last few weeks I think the number of showers might be less than the fingers on my hands.

Dirty mf is a reasonable reflection. But i like the salt of the sea, and i have been in it daily if not more. 

I think i am ok. Mrs is not on the couch and the kids usually tell me the truth.

Holidays beats working.
