Gonna skip politics today…

Well….have been busy today and haven’t had time to get into reading the news much so I’m going to skip politics today since I am pretty beat and just don’t want to do the work it takes to be even semi lucid…but, I will talk about the day a little and start it off by saying that I love my new 9 buck angle grinder I got at HF…getting ready to dig the two stumps out of the front lawn and had to figure out how to put a better edge on my hatchet since it didn’t come very sharp when I bought it…so I put the 99cent grinding wheel on the grinder and put an edge on the hatchet that was sharp enough to shave with…almost, and that was going to be all I was going to do…but, as always, I wanted to try out the new edge so I decided to get at the first stump and dug out around it so I could get chopping about 8 inches down…there was no way I was going to try to take the whole thing out roots and all since it was in there like concrete….so, after a half hour of chopping in close quarters, I finally got the two stumps out and then filled the hole back up but not before putting a huge blister on my thumb and screwing up my shoulder and back to boot. And all this was after putting 25 miles on the bike…so, needless to say, I won’t be getting to the second one until everything heals and that one should be easier since there is room to get at it from every direction and I may even be able to swing my axe at that one….so now, I’m going to get another glass of water and veg it out for a while…my damn cough is back and I need to take is easy….should be back at politics tomorrow….
