I've been busy, both with laboring and with thinking.
I will be making a move soon, more out of necessity than choice, but it will be for the better and an upgrade from my present situation. This move will generate a need for a lot of labor from me. I will have to dismantle things where I am at now, pack up all, including my wood shop, my stored items, my "porch" that is an alternative kitchen, and more.
And mixed in with all this is that I will have to repair my old truck because of the damage caused when I was rear ended on Sept. 3rd. making my trailer hitch not usable. I expect that the insurance adjuster will "total" the truck, and pay me off, and that I will be able to buy it back from the insurance company. I can fix it, but the insurance probably won't want to pay to have it properly repaired.
When I make my move, I will need to run electricity and water to my new site, and that will take labor on my part, as well as buying needed wiring, pipe for the wire and for the plumbing, etc.
I am considering starting a "Go Fund Me" to help with expenses that could be as much as $4,000 or $5,000. If I do, I will share my needs with friends, and see how I can do.
In the meantime, my dogs and I live on, enjoying life, and all that life has to offer.

Train, Over and Over and Over. Yesterday's shooting had me switching from right hand to left hand after each shot, and doing it as fast as I could "return to target". The group is a little wide, but acceptable considering changing hands and doing it fast. Those who shoot regularly would agree that the only way is to train over and over and over. On my "own time and dime". Because of the affordability of its ammo, my weapon of choice is my Henry .22 Lever Action Carbine. And I have others to choose from. These and more:

***UPDATE*** 17 days and 3 hours after the crash and it is settled. The money is in my bank and the settlement was very fair. I had a local Farm Shop install a new hitch. I will create the new, rear bumper, Probably of Red Oak n Cedar. I like this. Well Crap. Today went pretty smooth, did some "First of the Month" shopping, and was about to make a left turn off the highway, into my local hardware store when I got rear ended. Hard. I had one of my dogs in the back of the bed, (secured), and he got thrown from the front of the bed to the back. He and I are alright, but he was sure scared. My old truck is driveable, but the repair fee will probably make it a total. If so, I will buy it back and go with what I have. ***UPDATE*** Now that I have had time to settle down a bit, I have taken a closer look at my truck, and am thankful that it weighs 6,100 pounds. That 2013 Chevy Silverado only weighs about 2/3rds that, and it took the damage. It left on a wrecker whil
