What did you accomplish today?

F in law used to find pine that grew with pitch to start fires in the wood stove.
Pricy garden magazines and such sell that stuff you're F in law used for a fortune........call it "fatwood", a synonym. Never a better camp/late party fire than a pine stump ( not a rotten one). Did you ever burn an old dried out X-mas tree ( if you get X-mas trees) ..........a firestorm.

I was just vaping another one of their strains tonight...Run Away Bride. I forget now what it's lineage is but it has some Putang maybe. Which I didn't care for alone but the Run Away Bride has an incredible smell and taste.

Nice day here...went for a little bike ride, took it easy. Going to bed early I hope! I did not vape any wax or oil today for the first time in a month...I am going back to flower only for a few days, and probably going to make a general rule of no dabs during the week. I have wayyyy to much stuff to do and it doesn't get done when I'm in space!!

But I am hoping to make some distillate this coming week...Lots of rain so a good time for it!
Don't feel too bad. I've abused most of the "stuff" my whole life (addictive personality).
As I got older and older my overkill lessened (don't think just me) and morphed into a gentler lifestyle ( still "peddle on the metal" with the herb). Then, if health declines and lifestyle shits the bed you will temper quite a bit and have huge shift in priorities. It sucks but more than likely caused my me alone. Love the Steely Dan line " living hard will take it's toll". Hope I wasn't stodgy.

I FINALLY got my freaking front end shovel for my new mower. This has been what can best be described as a journey damn near equal to the Odyssey. It started back on March 17th and it still isn't quite over yet.

The front end loader shovel for the mower is FINALLY here.

Now then, there's a problem with this picture. You see the small box sitting on top of the big front shovel box? That is the mulching attachment kit for the riding mower you see in the background. Here's the problem: I already have it on the mower.

Follow me on this journey from Lowe's.

Back on the 17th of March, I made this post:

Kansas Senate Majority Leader Arrested
Kansas Senate Majority Leader Gene Suellentrop (R) was arrested early Tuesday morning for allegedly driving under the influence. The Republican state lawmaker was booked into the Shawnee County jail on Tuesday at approximately 3:55 a.m., according to jail records. He is charged with driving...

Where I ordered the mower, the mulch kit and the front end shovel kit from Lowes. Well, things got weird. The next day our credit card called to say they had blocked several 2,000 dollar charges to our card at a Lowes in North Carolina. Long story on that made short, I headed up to my local Lowe's on Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road to straighten it out.

It took 2 hours. Their online system had somehow sent the order to the wrong store. Not only that, once it got to the wrong store, whoever was there tried to enter it and messed it up three times and rather than fix it they just kept reentering it.

So it took their "IT team" (read as team of monkeys) an hour and a half to just delete that order. Speaking with the manager, he then ordered it all right there in front of me. The shovel was on backorder so it would take a few weeks to get.

So they were supposed to get everything in on the 25th and deliver it on the 26th. Of course, that didn't happen. Three days later, the mulch kit shows up on my front deck. Odd, I thought, as it was supposed to all come together on the 26th, but hey. Who cares, right?

So the 26th comes and I'm waiting for the delivery. It's getting to be the afternoon when I get a call from Lowe's delivery service. Turns out they had sold the mower meant for me and the shovel was again on backorder and wouldn't be available until late April at best.

I was not at all pleased. So I went up to S&S Ace Hardware, who are an authorized Husqvarna dealer and service center. I have a bit of a love hate relationship with those folks. I've dealt with them for 15 years, but never cared for the manager's son, who is a patent horses ass.

Anyway, I go up there and tell them the entire story. They've got my mower sitting on the floor that they can bring me in about an hour.

Done.

But the shovel they verify is on backorder and not available until April 30th. What's more, I bought it from Lowe's for about 580 dollars. The best price he could give me was 630. I said fine. Bought the mower. Went back to Lowe's.

Get to Lowe's and ask for the manager. Again. He shows up and I tell him the whole story I just told you. Told him I've bought the mower from S&S, they're delivering it in about an hour. I still want the shovel, so just ship it straight to me whenever you get it.

The manager asks: What about the mulch kit?

I told him that it had come in 3 days after I first ordered all of it back on the 17th of March. He said OK, so we'll mark that done deal.

And guess what gets delivered today? Another mulch kit. :rolleyes:

It's not hard. It really isn't. It's three items. But oh well...I'll run it back up to Lowe's later this week.

Anyway, let's have some fun putting all of this together:

Ran into town real quick to have my optometrist check out my subconjunctival hemorrhage. There is nothing stuck in my eyeball so it'll just take some time to go away. Looks ugly at the moment. He said I have an opportunity to make up some far fetched story about how it happened to anyone who asks about it.

I just got a nasty letter in the mail from my optometrist today...Business must be slow. I skipped my annual appt last year in June due to Covid...In his letter he states how important annual eye exams are and if I don't make an appt within 30 days he is dropping me as a patient. I do have glaucoma, and have bene doing my part (and then some) with THC therapy! :lol:

I wanted to call his office and say, "Um, maybe you didn't hear, there's a global pandemic....asshole!!"
