Just did... moral of the story, if you don't do anything you don't get any results. Being a "performance based" personality you'd think I'd learn by now. Speaking of personalities, I'm feeling like its a melancholy moment. Not that its a real surprise either since that is about 99% of my make up. The 1% is phlegmatic, but I'll tell you about that later.... after I give it some thought.
So what's happened since June? Lets make a list:
Olivia is 13 and 5' 3" tall, and the 3" isn't nearly as important as her hair, but I mentioned it anyway. I own three shotguns now and they are all placed prominently through the house. I also own a Barrett 50 cal (I put a picture below, google or youtube it if you need to or just believe me that it is a BIG rifle with BIG bullets), with a more than adequate scope that permanently rests on an exquisitely made bench rest that sits in front of the front window, right by the front door. The trees that grace our long driveway, that is perfectly viewed by our front window... yardage markers. The little flags at each end of the driveway... windage. I use it open the mailbox from the back end at 200 yards every day... practice. Its a big mailbox, encased in masonry, with a mason on retainer.
Connor is 16, driving, and is 6'1" and that one inch is extremely important. He think girls are hot, I'm proud. Amy thinks they are harlots. Amy finally learned to use my shotgun, just to be prepared. She "was 16 once" she says. She also "practiced" with my rifle one time... for harlot prevention. She thought she'd open the mailbox, like I do, for the mailman, but he was standing there. Missed a pretty big detail there. Opening the mailbox from the back at 200 yards isn't good when someone there trying to put mail in it. She thought she was being helpful, but there is a lawsuit pending, he's fine though, limited use of his right hand. I'm left handed, so I don't get why its a big issue. It was just a simple miscommunication of protocol. In the end, the shotgun is the preferred deterant for her. Amy decided she's better luring the harlots in close with baked goods. She's leaving goodies on the porch, problem is I have to keep her from shooting relatives and neighbors. She thinks its cool to shoot through the door when she hears the bell she tied to the pan. Where she excels in element of surprise she lacks in target verification. Oh well, I'm not a master of baked goods... we balance each other out.
Ok, so its not so much a list as a couple of short stories and an active imagination. If I knew I would have gone there I would have let you know I just finished a Stephen Hunter book. He's the author of the book they based the movie "Shooter" on. For the guys, its a sniper movie. For the girls, its a Mark Wahlberg movie... and I believe he takes his shirt off. We all following? Good.
Anyway, some other stuff happened too, but my brain ran out of poop.
Have a nice day!
I can't remember every thing that movie was about, but it definitely was a great Wahlberg movie!
