That is painful. Glad you have insurance and I really hope she recovers quickly.

Do you have a project in the works? :)

I'm making a latch for the garage door on the pole barn.
I had a metal pole barn (with a large garage door on one side of it) built up on my land in the mountains. The builders only installed one latch on the door. I believe that without two latches that sooner or later the door will spring out of shape. I looked for a latch I could install at my local hardware store, but had no luck. So I bought some metal strapping and I'm building one.
Besides I needed (wanted) some new drill bits and other tools.

Love? I have had them sliced thinly on salads or cubed in potato salad. To me, they don't have much of a taste. Is there something about them or how to prepare them that I'm missing?

What, are you kidding? Radishes are known for having a "bite". They're a little spicy, that's why I like them..

I put them in tossed green salads.

A laptop cooler, for games like Watch Dog. Apparently the already powerful fan isn't enough.

Thanks for the link. I could use something like that.

Np. That one looked the best to me. I really want to make sure the laptop doesn't get hot, plus I could use it for my ps3, ps4 as well. They get hot too. Saw one for $8, though. :eek: Free shipping if you have prime

If you think they don't have much taste, you've had some bad radishes. Good radishes have a bite to them. You should give them another try.

Today I went swimming at the municipal pool and stopped at K-mart afterward.

I bought some new toothbrushes (3 pack - on sale) $2.50, a pack of 16 rolls of toilet paper (also on sale) $6.00, two packs of .9 width mechanical pencils (8 pencils total - also on sale) $5.00 total, a 3-ring binder $6.98, a 12 pack of Coke Zero $5.98, a planter (for my chocolate mint plant - makes great tea) $3.98, a small bag of planting soil $2.99, and a single cold bottle of Sobe Life Water $1.25 (to drink in the car).

Oh, and a 6 inch veggie sandwich for dinner at Subway for around $4.00 (I don't remember what I paid).

The 6 inch veggie delight here is only 3.00 here.I thought about getting one of those today but then decided to walk across and get 2 bean burritos from Taco Bell.No cheese,no sour cream which I brought home and added mixed lettuce,tomato and avocado to them.Busy,no time to cook.:(
 
I need to move. It's almost $6.00 here. And they make them so skimpy. You would think they'd do better since there's no meat or cheese. It actually annoys me a lot so I never go there unless I'm desperate.
 
Today I bought some more drill bits because I was trying to drill a 1/4" hole in some mild steel with one of my new bits, it was doing a lousy job of it, and then it broke - even though I wasn't putting much pressure on it. The broken tip of the bit flew over and took off about a third of my fingernail on my left index finger, along with a little flesh.
So I bought a set of small titanium bits for $11.99, and a 1/4" bit made for hardened steel (Irwin - brand name) for $2.95.
Tomorrow I'm taking the other bit set back (and I might get more good bits).
I also bought some Turtle Wax as it was on sale for $4.35 because a bird had pooped on my hood so I was thinking about cleaning and waxing the car.

Bought some cases for my reloads (I reload ammo - it's too expensive not to) I enjoy shooting paper targets with my pistol - for some reason target shooting is mentally relaxing for me (but strangely bowling isn't - and they're about the same thing). $19.80
Went to the hardware store and bought another metal punch, a piece of heat shrink tubing, 2 aluminum spacers, 2 plastic buckets, and one foot of 1/4" hardware cloth (I'm making something). I returned the bad drill bits and after they subtracted my purchase was given +$3.50 back.
The Library had a book sale. I got several books and some music CDs (a few Chris Isaak and two Eric Clapton). I donated $20.00 (you donate what you feel like).
