Cold news....damn it's cold in Georgia

Only 'cause I care. I'm think'n', like everthing else, the blog is bout on it' last leg an' is gonna die a excruciating painful death. Same as did my golf ball swak'n days, "bubba" boat'n an' 14 inch bass fish'n. As I see it, my travel'n days is also dead. Damn, depression sucks to no end.

This is for you Rose, Texas Rose.

The two side, top deck an' the stern have been polyurethaned their last coat. The finish coat. Oh my God, there's dust all over the place. In hopes they will sand out an' buff to a super gloss finish.
BUT!!!!! I have done absolutely nuttin to the boat in close to a week. It just sits over there on that little table whin'n an' cry'n "Billy Bob, pet me".
With that said, I need to go buy me some "pet'n" compound....polishing compound to buff the finish. Wouldn't hurt none also to buy me up a buff'n doo-flotchy for my random orbital sander. Make quick work of a looooong job.

I been kind of on the sick side again for the last few days. Ain't got me no energy or "git go" to speak of. I know part is 'cause I don't eat near enough an' some the nasty stuff I call food, it don't help none neither. But then again, it could be 'cause I ain't been tak'n my stomach meds for a couple weeks. Ya see, they block me up an' then to undo the blockage I got this other med that causes severe stomach an' adoman (ha, spell checker wants to change that to "madwoman") pains.....abdominal pains. Anyhows, I am back on the stomach meds but only half as much......experimentation of drugs.

Don't know what to do bout the back an' hip issues. They still do'n fair, but the numbers are slowly grow'n. Up to bout 6 an' 7 lately. With an' occasional 14/16.

Now let me tell ya bout this "DAMN" Windows 10. It sucks to hog heaven. I click on something, an' some freak'n app what I ain't never see in my entire life opens it up an' I cain't do nuttin with it. It ain't narry a bit faster than Win 8.1. It takes forever to boot up. Then, the last couple days, it locks the computer slap up. Nuttin does anything. Have to do a pushbutton shutdown, what is highly frowned on by Bill Gates. Then a good 8 minutes to reboot. I'm think'n I'll be go'n back to the "DAMN" Windows 8.1. Either that or buy me a MAC. Frick, I don't like Mac neither. As much as I disliked Windows Vista, I would go back to it in a heartbeat second over this shit. Technology sucks.

Sadie Mae an' the "damn cat" Leonard are do'n just fine. Leonard in an' out the house a hunnert times a day. Eat up bout enough cat food for 14 cats a day. Sleeps in a cardboard box. Noses me while I'm at the computer. I'm talk'n....walks across the keyboard an' sticks his nose in my eyes, ears an' nose. I have to pet him or he will never leave me be. Then ZOOOOM, out the door he go.

Temps suck here in Georgia. I should be further south where it ain't so cold. Been in the low 40's to mid 30's at night....mid 50's to low 60's daytime. Been us'n Mr Heater a bit an' I done run slap out of propane from that little tank. I got 2 of 'em, so I'm good for another week. Tractor Supply, just down the street a bit, has the tank I want. Will hold right at 16 gallons I'm think'n. I need this tank.

  1. Check on Craig's list for Propane tanks and you should be able to get a 25gal one used for about $50.
    That Wild Texas Rose looks like a classy ski boat.

    2. Just load that tank in your jeep and take it to the propane store,the big shop you know. Tell them you want to get it recertified. The last time I had it done it cost $10,they just inspect it for any possible damage. If it's rusty on the bottom just clean it good and paint it,they will stamp a date on it that's good for 10 years.

    1. Yes Trouble, I had RFA done on L3, L4 an' L5. There was quite a bit of relief in the lower back. But, for the hip pains, they went to the S1. Received an injection and it help a whole lot. But, the shit they injected in there must be wear'n off 'cause my pain levels have increased lately. Will receive a RFA to the S1 in Feb. Probably another injection first due to the way my insurance works. Hope this helps.....

    2. yes and i just now found it. Didnt realize my hip could have an RFA too... thats wonderful. The steroid injection worked for my hip. When the doc looked at the xray, he said "holy moley",, never seen one that bad...but the shot worked.

  6. That is one beautiful boat, Billy Bob! Thanks for the picture. Sure wish I could bottle up some good health & cheer & send it to you! Sounds like your temps have been about the same as ours here in North Texas this week. Supposed to warm up a little the next few days.

    We just chased a Leonard type cat out of our back yard. Came over an 8 foot wood fence! A trap will be set for him today. All the bird feeders we have would provide lunch for him. Not our intention at all.

    Hope your days get better. Please keep us posted. Rose

  9. I just figure you are on the verge of leaving us readers real soon ....high and dry. Too many have and are quitting blogs. That's okay if you quit. It was great fun while it lasted but everything grows old in time, doesn't it? Stay warm BB; go buy yourself a sweater.
