Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

Someone else asked that too when I posted it last month, that's a picture from the ad. The only pedal I use in an EBS tube direct box/OD and I don't even used that very much, it's great for the Mel Schacher sound without knocking walls down.
What's the point of sounding like Mel if you're not knocking walls down? :smug:
 
I average six hours with one get up and p*p* halfway through. I then go out to my recliner, get another hour then get up around 6:30 to start setting out medication, vitamins, and make some oatmeal. Then a shower and fresh shirts for work. I go home a few minutes early for lunch and catch a 15 minute catnap and that helps too.

This last weekend our granddaughter from Juneau came over to visit. She is so well behaved and a straight A student. She also babysits her siblings. She's graduating next month and I wish we could go but we're worried about Covid even with our shots. She's coming to stay with us for a week during 4th of July. She's over half Haida from my side of the family. Also Tlingit from her mom's side.

She wants to be a teacher. She's so precious--kind, thoughtful, and listens carefully and stares straight into your eyes when she talks to you. Answers "yes grandpa" "yes grandma." Her counselor in High School is working on getting her grants for the local college. Here's a picture of her playing Varsity Girl's Basketball. Here name is Ajah.

All the best to her and the fam. I bet she'll kick a** and take names!

Sounds like she was brought up right and has her head squarely on her shoulders. Many don’t have a clue what they want to do in life. A lovely young woman.

Maybe you can attend her graduation ceremony via the internet. Last year, many schools cancelled group graduation events and webcasted instead.

You have a right to be a proud grandfather!

Very pretty young woman. She sounds mature, kind of like me when I entered my 50's.
 
Day drinking is the best....

We actually rehearsed the song and it changed the more we did it until it came out as almost an entirely different song but had the same lyrics and structure, it sounded good if I do say so myself, very different from the original, wish I could remember what they tune was.
You prolly wouldn't recognize it.
 
Made it! To the post office in time to overnight the GHS Balanced Nickels to Nordstrand for Mo to install on my Acinonyx.

Notice people are getting cheeky about masks. The lady ahead of me at the post office (who, if I were to hazard a guess, is a realtor) gave me a dirty look. The postal clerk wasn't wearing a mask. I don't know if you're fully vaccinated, or what. :thumbsdown:

Hmm. Maybe a scarlet letter V is the answer.

I dunno, it's prolly just me, but I think I'd rather be fully vaccinated, still wear a mask, find it harder to breathe, and feel inconvenienced than to get Covid and maybe not breathe at all.
