Projects continue

We was sit'n over there on the couch, me an' Sadie Mae, an' she says to me...."Let's go to Home Depot an' spend some dollars". I pick up my Walmart special notebook an' started a list of stuff for the next project....the bedroom closet shelves. Then it started rain'n little cat puppies an' full size pit bulls. I mean, it was rain'n cats an' dogs.

Later that afternoon, we loaded up in the "billy jeep" an' headed to Home Depot.....a whole page of stuff to buy. All materials was purchased for the bedroom closet an' a few little items for the table/cabinet project.
I'm the type guy what don't go shop'n an' spend a measly $30. I go big time. Total purchases yesterday was over $200....but, a big part of that was for a dad gum battery an' charger for my Ryobi 4 1/2 inch skill saw. And a brand new saw blade for the table saw. And a high dollar handi square to replace the one I cain't find. And a "made of gold" mortise router bit. Dang that stuff is expensive.

Back pain. I ain't mentioned that in a couple days. No, it ain't healed if'n that's what you're think'n. I swear, I'm gonna put a stick of dynamite in that dad gum couch. I go sit an' lay in that thing feel'n pretty good, an' when I get up, I feel like I been run slap over with the neighbors bulldozer. I suppose I could order the new foam rubber an' try that before I blow that sucker to smithereens. By the way, I tried sit'n in a couple more of them recliners again. Nope, got to have my comfortable couch (the one what beats hell out me ever time I sit on it).

My intention for today was to just sit back an' "do nuttin". My mind says...."unload the stuff ya got from Home Depot an' build some shelves". Dang, don't I ever get to rest?
"But Billy Bob, ya need them shelves today, not tomorrow".
*think'n here....will let ya know laters*

 My mind again goes to "what ya gonna do with the rest of your life". Well, I been think'n a lot bout that for quite some time. At my age an' my condition, travel has gotten to be a real chore. Wouldn't it be nice to go outside, sit on "da (new) porch", an' sip up some fresh coffee? Walk out to the pond an' do a little fish'n? Pick a few fresh maters out the garden? Swak some golf'n balls into the woods? Oh wait, it snows in the winter time. Scratch that.
Let's wait an see what these doctors can do for my back before we ask that question again.  

Ok.....I got to do something....anything.
"Have ya ever builded shelves Billy Bob, we could do that".

  1. My driver's and passenger's seats will turn around and face to the rear. If yours do too, why not sit in one of them. If driven the rig doesn't bother your back as much as sitting on the couch, then try sitting in the driver's seat.

    1. Don't all RV passenger an' driver seats turn around? To sit in one of them an' watch TV, I would have to go to Walmart an' buy me a great big mirrer to see the over the dash TV.
      Actually, the front seats are very uncomfortable with my back issues.
      All the couch needs is to replace the foam rubber again with the correct firmness.

  2. I guess RV couches cost way more than the regular house kind, or I'd say just toss the damn thing and get a new one!

    1. The way they are built, they should be very cheap....but they ain't. A new one will have the same cheap foam rubber this one does. They build like a bird....cheap cheap cheap.

    1. Dizzy's idea would never work. I watch TV.

      But I do have a nice comfortable office seat that I like pretty much. Just hard to lay in it to take a nap.

  5. I can sit in the passenger seat, run it back as far as it will go and very comfortably watch the TV that is over the windshield. I do that a lot when I don't want to lay on the couch.
