    Wow, those forecast temps are 5 degrees above what I'm showing for LaPorte. Hope they're wrong,....I'm not ready for it to be too hot already. My comfort range is 55-60. Anything above 65 and I'm complaining about the heat.

    Best way to find that 5-pack of 1911 mags,......order more and the mags you already have will magically show themselves.

    While looking at guns/gun parts I have, I got reminded I need to put the new rear site on my Taurus Thunderbolt.
    For some reason I have to drill out the hole for the screw. Maybe because I didn't buy it from Taurus.

    Don't forget to do your bi-yearly main water value shut off test this weekend.

    1. Locate your main water value and turn it off.

    2. Open a faucet to let water run.

    3. Check the water meter it should NOT register any water being used. The numbers on the meter should NOT move.

    4. Turn off the faucet after running it for 60 seconds or more.

    5. Open the main water value all the way.

    6. You should see the water meter registering that water is being used and then the numbers should stop.
    This means the city water was refilling your houses water pipes and once full it stopped.*

    7. Now open the faucet again and look at the water meter it should start registering water being used.

    8. Turn off faucet you passed the test!

    Doing the test ensures the main water value is used regularly because if it is not and one day you need to turn off the water the value could be stuck open or worse break from lack of use. Then it's gonna cost you BIG MONEY to have a plumber replace it and the cost of the city having to turn off the water in the street.

    *if the meter is still running and you have all the faucets off this means you have a leak in the house somewhere in the pipes.

    The only sinus headache is from an infection. It was always a migraine, just not a severe one.

    Well, at 3 am my forehead hurt. Bad enough to wake me up.
    But there was no stabbing my eye pain.
    By 7 or so, it then migrated to my eyeball, and feels like someone is taking an ice pick to my right eyeball, from the inside. And also around 9 or so, the nausea kicked in.

    So, what ever that is.


    And a separate issue, I have a tremor, and being in pain makes it worse.
    The tremor is .. bad right now.
    Making it difficult to even type.
    Have to keep correcting errors.

    Will need new grates and ash pans as they're worn out. Grill has been sitting unused for a couple years. Comes with a cover
