Check'n off one more item....an' start'n another

Yesterday I was "YeeeeHaaaaw"!!! But then it broke.
Tell ya bout that in a minute.

Me an' Robert hit the golf course (St. Andrews Country Club) right at 11:30. I was rare'n to go....swak me up some golf'n balls. Bogied the first hole (one stroke over par) an' pared the second hole. Had a good score go'n up to the eigth.....an' all hell broke loose. I was hit'n trees, rocks, high humidity areas (lakes, creeks an' ponds)......deep into the woods. I did not have a good score when I had to stop on the 17th hole. I was hurt'n.

We returned to "da house". I sit down an' take me up a aspirin. I was need'n it bad.

****"It's way later Billy Bob, where the hell ya been"?****

Well ya see, it's like this....when ya get busy, ya forget what time it is an' what ya was do'n. And that's what I did.

The circuit board has been installed. "Does it work Billy Bob, huh? does it work"?? Well, I suppose it does. Do'n the same thing the other one was do'n. Didn't help with the "start'n up "da house" not nary a bit. But that's another item in the "fix it" list. Circuit board....check....done...pooof, just like that.

Robert was sit'n over there on the couch. The couch.....yeah, lets tear apart the couch. An' that's exactly what we do. Did some of "daddy's" engeneer'n on the structure an' decided to install 1/4 inch plywood under the foam rubber for a very firm sit down. Yes, we test different materials till I felt good. Off to the foam rubber sell'n place we went. Fount some high density 4 inches foam rubber an' some pad'n material. What that stuff is for I don't know, but we bought it anyhows.

Off to Home Depot for more materials. Damn, they ain't got everthing I had on my list. Where ya buy the correct size hog rings??? These are way slap too big.

As I sit here type'n away, eat'n up some stuff "yo mama" made, Robert is outside do'n his thing on that piece of plywood. Hot damn, it fits perfect. Now comes the hard part....cut'n, glue'n an' fit'n the foam rubber. Since I will be supervis'n, it should fir perfect.
That's all I have to say bout that.

    1. Hi ya Croft. Every man should know wimmins ain't gonna put up with no supervis'n stuff. They got ideas all their own, an' accord'n to them, their ideas are law. Well, maybe not all of 'em, but ya gotta be careful who an' how ya supervise. "Move over dog, I'm sleep'n here tonight".

  4. Progress! I like that word. Fixin' hopefully is cheaper than the $1400 you mentioned earlier; but ya never know until the job is completely finished and the result makes you Happy!

    So, did you spend for that circuit board and DIDN'T need it? If so, I say, ship it back for a refund.

  7. Even under the protections of late night cable, a
    weekly UFC was not going to get away with the dangers of the no holds barred style.
    watch ufc 174 online We'd get
    our positive association with it and open up our wallets and make a
    simply call to sign up for the upcoming broadcast. This style sometimes gets him into
    trouble, but he always seems to find his way out.
