Home repair day. Youngest Dogs has stopped chewing on the base boards. Pulled out the Miter saw, cut new baseboards, retextured the wall corners , painted the baseboard and nailed them in. Just need to go buy some while silicone to fill the edges then repaint the entire wall.

If you want some true random fun just set one of the engines (not in a rocket) on a flat surface with a fuse and light it. Try not to get hit. It's good fun.
I used to light the fuse on a Jetex engine, heave it into the air, and listen to it moving around invisibly above me.

At the time, a buddy and I were seriously into building and detonating various explosive devices.

Man... with a few G&Ts in me, I'd for SURE destroy that whole nice area. :busted:
Right? I had a couple Topo Collins last night and then like 5 IPAs... intredastingly enough nothing was harmed.

The Ladyfriend found 6 super nice heavy ceramic outdoor plant pots on CL for $100... you can see 5 of them in the pic. We're brainstorming what kinda plants to put in them. I think we have enough flowering plants, but I do want the patio to be like a damn jungle.

You need to plant fucking TOMATOES, man. I've got a metric shitton of starts here, just let me know what kind you want.

For the record - the yellow ones are usually the tastiest.

Oh - and basil around the tomato plants. Because basil.

This man beat me to the suggestion. Because of the COVID's we're around 3 weeks behind normal on our growing as we always start from seeds. Right now they've only just sprouted out of the dirt...

My wife planted 3 tomato seeds in each starter pot, and of course *every* fucking seed sprouted. She then announced she was going to separate the plants, which I was skeptical as to the success of such an endeavor... but she pulled it off. So we now have *3* full flats of mostly tomatoes. :D
