One project down an' a hunnert to go

The many chores and projects the old Billy Bob an' company have been talk'n bout ain't nuttin like ya think. I was sit'n there look'n at the "fix it" list an' holy moley, I ain't did nuttin. But I very well know how to make excuses for what ain't done. You know, like....I stubbed my toe, headaches, mosquito bite, it's too hot....stuff like that.

But anyhows, yesterday I worked on the hall closet project. An' I worked too freak'n hard....my damn back hurted. It's done, finished, end of story. Next will be the bedroom closet. Shelves on the right side an' hang my 4 shirts on the left side. My 20 some pull over shirts will be folded an' shelved on the right side. Now that's what I'm talk'n bout. By this time next month, my bedroom may look like a bedroom an' not a redneck storage area. My god I have a bunch of crap to put in the dumpster.

For Louie.....

Yes Louie, some touch up is on the agenda.

All the little chores I been do'n don't amount to a whole lot when ya sit back an' look at what ya just did. "That took ya 4 days to do Billy Bob"??? Well, I gotta take a break ever once in a while ya know. For all ya that think I'm work'n my ass off....that ain't so. I just know how to word things to make ya think that way. "Got ya didn't I"?

So what's on the agenda for today? I was think'n bout go'n out there in the garage an' work on my other project.....table cabinet project. That would be a bad choice. Ya see, the blade on the table saw is kind of sorta dull. It needs replaced with a brand spank'n new cabinet quality blade. Little things like a sharp saw blade makes all the difference in the world towards a finished product. I want it to look nice ya know.

As far as excit'n stuff on my mind, the only thing I can come up with, is a great round of golf. One where I don't have to quit before the game is finished. There ain't nuttin worser in this world than "I quit".
"That's all I have to say bout that"....Gump.

It's been pretty damn hot here in Georgia. Not so much the temps (low to mid 90's), but this humidity sucks. And it ain't even July yet.

The way I'm think'n, I'm gonna be in Georgia for bout 3 or 4 more months. My first doctor appointment ain't gonna amount to more than..."I can give ya some shots....fix ya right up". He's one them "shot" doctors ya know. That's when me an' that doctor gonna go round an' round. I want me another doctor. One what know how to fix stuff, not hide it. I didn't make this trip for shots, I made it to get my back FIXED (surgery). Then there's the up to 6 weeks recovery time I got to go through. Don't like that one bit. Damn....I'll be glad when this crap is over.

Ok, other eye is wide open now.....I got things to do. Laters.

  1. I've heard of good results with 'shots' from many ailing people; seriously though, just "offered" a shot in my knee once scared the begesus out of me; such a scaredy cat over needles. I can see your mind is set for surgery and nothing else apparently, so surgery it's going to be. Eh?

    Chop, chop as the chinee man said.

    Your shelves look professionally done. The support brackets look very strong, could hold hundreds #. Tell us how you attached them to the back wall - is wall metal? I'd like to put up shelves but my walls are flimsy with nothing behind them. Sort of a p o s.

    You've made me laugh again this week!

    1. Just your mention of needles made me cringe....god I hate needles. I'm not say'n I'm happy bout some china guy chop chop'n on my back, but there's something wrong in there. I mean, 14 years of pain, something ain't right.

      Dang it Sissy, ya didn't look at the pics. See them thingys mounted (screwed) to the walls? The shelf brackets lock into them. In a house, ya got wall studs. Those thingys screw into the studs. Ya just gotta locate the damn things.

    1. Ha ha....the hall project is only the start. Went to Home Depot an' spend me a bunch more $$$ to do the bedroom closet. An' then, over there in that corner, is room for more shelves.
      I'm gonna get this shit off the floor one way or another.

  3. Sometimes good insurance is a bad thing because most doctors want to get rich off of every patient! The doctors at the free hospital that work on salary will usually do it right the first time so they do not have to see you again!

    1. What ya said makes me think I may qualify for the "death panels" in Medicare. I feel the same as you do bout them damn doctors what want me to pay for their BMW's an' Hummers. If'n they don't fix it by surgery the first try, I'll go back to the shot doctor an' get me 14 shots to kill the pain.

    1. Ya gotta look at them shelves real close before ya call 'em professional look'n. Between you an' me Louie, don't tell nobody, but they ain't professional look'n from here. Little more paint may hide the flaws.
      Boy howdy, hope you are right bout be'n pain free. After 14 years....damn, I'm in heaven.
