- It’s not every day that I get to use a hatchet, a bow saw, a bush hog, and a claw hammer. Today was one of those days.
- You know you’ve done some funky stuff when you have to scrub the tub after your shower.
- The tree is up, it’s twinkling, and the Grinch is in the DVD player. Ho freaking ho.
- We, being traditional folks, went through the annual ritual of “Where did we put those bloody lights?”
- I’m not a redneck for putting my beer out on the porch to keep it cold. I’m an environmentalist.
- We have found that the only way to get Derby to sleep on her dog bed is to put said bed onto the couch where she prefers to sleep.
- Either Irish Woman is trying to fatten me up for the mid-winters feast, or she just feels like making huge breakfasts this weekend. I haven’t needed lunch since Friday.
- The office had their Christmas lunch and gift exchange on Friday. The most hotly contested gifts were a yard long Snicker’s bar and 10 pounds of country sausage from a local butcher. Not sure what that says about the folks I work with.

One of our regular Christmas movies is “The Long Kiss Goodnight.”
I think the perfect stocking stuffer gift would be a beer holder for those “hold my beer” moments.

/ December 4, 2017You didn’t need a machete, or a propane torch? No splitting wedges? No firearms of any type?

/ December 4, 2017Splitting wedge comes out in a bit when I have to smash apart some ash trunk sections someone gifted me. Consider the bushhog as a gas-driven machete.
