@ roo, I hear ya. I have 25 acres, and my pack of thugs had to go and play everywhere BUT our land. Of course, I never heard coyotes when they were running at night. I did hear a whole lot from them though, as they were terrorizing every dillo, possum, raccoon. We also have a pocket pup too, but he was just born runty. He won't go outside under his own free will, regardless of the weather. As if being a runt wasn't bad enough, his left eye just went milky one night. Doesn't stop him from thinking he's a big dog though. It is funny watching this Guinea pig sized mutt growl and go after the big dogs. Of course, they aren't amused, and put him in his place but fast!

We got snow again last night, 2-3 inches but it's alot warmer than the last snow and bitterly cold snap. It'll be all gone by Saturday. I got my bench done, even made some more storage in it and was able to reuse some cubicle desk material to fill in the void that I created when things got moved around. I still have to mount my O press to the wall (where my lee bulge buster lives.) I run all my .45acp through it so that it works in all my .45acp 1911s, revolvers and carbines.

I have never run any .45 acp thru the bulge buster, 5 gallon bucket of .40 s&w now i have. Another good reason to have a single stage press.


M-2 many folks in and around here same way as you.  Drink lots of water, don’t let that bandit dehydrate you.

I guess it is up to me to put on the coffee today. It is cold outside, but no precipitation. Got the killer A flu going through the house, and for the second time since Christmas, the wife has infected me. Thanks hon...

Got the wood guy coming to drop off another load. This guy doesn't really get it. When I tell him to deliver on the weekend, it is so the boy can help unload and stack. Instead, he wants to always deliver while the boy is in school. Guess what, wood guy is unloading all by hisself today.

I got the flu shot back in Nov. But from what I've read, it might not cover the strain that is affecting so many people >:( >:( >:(

We got the flu shot too. Apparently, it may only help keep you from getting the full brunt of the bug. Kinda like hiding behind a sheet of glass when being shot at  ::) It also is showing a lot of false negatives when getting swabbed. The strain we have is A, which is the one responsible for numerous deaths.

There are both schools of thought... My wife won't get one.... in the 30 years + 2 days we've been married SHE has never had the FLU.
nor will she get the shot...

I been laid low with it,  2 major bouts once in 1976 and again in 91 ...minor lighter cases a few times.
.... I thought it prudent getting the shot the last few years , the first time,  I did get a mild reactionary case...  

This is not the flu though  :-\.... pretty sure its just a MOTHER of head cold .... No waves of fever & wipe out like flu does.

Just a running nose that could beat Kyle Busch on his best day, no chest congestion (yet) & feels like water is in my ears.
I had worse sore throat and my nose is red as beet & sore from honk'n' my hooter.

Fighting with all the tools I have on hand , ZICAM® spurted up in my nose ,  Tylenol & Mucinex  coursing through my veins.

Gonna drown it in Chicken Broth tonight ....

Me too Major but I think I've turned a corner. I've not gone through a whole box of facial tissues today. Sleep and vitamin C are your friends.

Sorry for those with the grunge, I am so far avoiding it.  Flu shots caused me a lot of consternation way back in the last century; company dictated that all employees had to get a flu shot every year to cut down on excessive use of sick time.  Every year, I'd get sicker than a dog about two weeks after getting the shot, and have to take off work, sometimes for a week or more.  And, every year, I'd get a disciplinary letter about using too much sick leave.  So, I started refusing the shot, and got in trouble for that - but I stopped getting sick and using sick time.  I had a heated discussion with my boss about it, he threatened to suspend me if I didn't get the shot, and I pointed out the facts of the past few years to him, and he knuckled under.  When I retired, I had almost two years of accumulated sick leave on the books; was on sick leave, and got all of the raises and bennies dues me, even though I never went to work.  When I ran out of sick time, they let me retire.

Weather here is cool, cloudy, and for us, winter like.  It rained pretty good one day last week, and the prognosticators are saying it might do it again in the next day or so.  Can't wait for spring and warm sunny days again.
