    Painting the kitchen. Single coat paint is a lie. I can never get the stated coverage. Kitchen painting is much harder than a kids room. The right tools make it much faster.
    Need to go to the hardware store for the 3rd time, which means I am close to done. The dinky 6? roller is not putting down the paint right and I need to find a hollow core version that holds more paint. All this because the space above the cabinets is tiny.
    And my body is telling me I need to either work out more or pay people to do this.

    Painting is a suck ass task.

    I recently painted the interior of my house garage, pita. Sure looks better though.

    It seems the world is opening up to those of us who've stayed close to home over the past year. For us it's been almost 18 months since enjoying an inside restaruant meal. Even pre pandemic we didn't eat out a lot, maybe 3-4 times a month. We're frugal and we eat better and cheaper at home. We don't do fast food. Even so, I figure we've saved around $3500 or more on restaruant meals since December 8, 2019. Doesn't that justify a splurge or two?

    In the past week we've hosted friends and enjoyed lovely meals at three nice restaruants. Today was Mrs. Hummer's birthday and this evening she had elk loin at the Bird and Jim restaruant in Estes Park. With three freezers full of big game meat at home and she orders elk steak? Okay, so I had a Buffalo burger, Ha! We shared a little and the elk was excellent.

    Now, we're pretty well satiated on the desire to dine out, for a few weeks anyway. As far as all that savings over the past 18 months I'm afraid it will dwindle quickly as the inflation of restaruant tickets is rising far faster than income from the government covid relief payouts.

    For the first time in a long time, I don’t have any guns to trade or sell.
    I mean nothing I would actively try to sell anyway. I am not attached to one but I suppose that I would trade it for something else but I actually should keep it.
    Huh, unusual situation for me. Guess I will just acquire the parts I need to build a 20 inch upper and assemble a lower I have hanging around.

    Honestly, it has been 20 years since I have been in this position.
