Same ole broken record. Was planning on having their weekend off. Now working to catch up again. Have a few guys sick so the work load just backs up. 

You all have fun and be safe. 

:gd2:

:sail:

 
Just got back from an hour walk here in our hood.  There is a hill that pushed you.   

Gonna try to fix the damage the trash truck did to our trash bin....  there are broken bins all up and down the street.....  

Then.....  not sure. 

 
Reorganizing garage for cv and bearing prep next weekend 🙄. Maybe dinner tonight with the in-laws.  Later (as in noon) cocktail:30 begins lol 

 
Cleaning the fleet of vehicles.  Got some trinkets for the X3 might install them. I think we might end up in Costa Mesa for lunch/early dinner still up in the air.  Tomorrow going over to the wife’s friends for a BBQ.  Last time I was there it was quite entertaining when I ask “who is president of the United States”.  I’m curious how they’re going to spin the accomplishments of the current president.  
 

Everyone have a great and safe weekend. 

 
Coming out of a Covid/flu fog day 6. Wife Called Kaiser and they told me to go get tested.. Well I told them, I dont need no test to tell me if Im sick! Can't tell me what to do!

 
I went and Picked up the can am today from the dealer."3rd week in a row driving down there" Picked up some more Goodies Robert L left me at the dealer. Deep cleaning everything in the house since my son that lives here tested positive for the covid on Tuesday. I got tested Yesterday waiting on results but feel fine. since I have a weekend all alone I am gonna install a few things on the can am and do all my chores around the House but thats normal..

 
Just got home from an overnight stay at the Country Club. Finished the tourney just off the podium. Now going to check the Dream Home Build. We just got a massive storm that blew thru here. 3 hrs of winds rain lightning. When you have 100* from the south and 70* from the north collide.......Houston, we have a problem. Total Chaos. Peace

 
Worked as planned. Had a surprise visit from Robert L and his lovely wife. Was great seeing them. Hope they enjoyed the beach. Was a nice day for sure. 

Sent a coupe of my guys out fishing again. Here's a few pics. They did good. 

Fish dead. Poke bowls coming.

Took the twin niece and nephew to the Out of Africa park for their birthday (8yo).  Damn that place is huge.  Even though it's above 3k in elevation, I was sweating my ass off with the humidity the rains from last night brought and the 100*+ temps...

Still had fun.

 
Smoked queso dip and pork belly.  Drank my ass off.  Don't remeber anything past 4pm.

I ecleaned and waxed the buggy.  I forgot how good it looks all shined up.  It's a shame it will be dirty before I get the paddles mounted on it.  LOL 

Did some planning for our trip to zion.  I'm looking forward to being out on a trail.  

Going to spend some time with my mom this evening.   Getting old isn't for weak stomachs.  

 
Saturday…… I said FTW and got up for breakfast, went back to bed with my playful wife. Got up for lunch, went back to bed with my playful wife. Got up for dinner went back to bed with my playful wife, then got up about 8 PM watch some TV showered and went back to bed to actually rest.  F*%k my Projects for this weekend!  Sunday -  Almost the same but 4 hours or projects so I do not feel totally like a loser for today. Got something done 🙂 

 
... Working all weekend..  I have a new lot of semiconductors I obtained/purchased from a customer. I'm so swamped with quoting and orders that I can only get to receiving on the weekends right now... not complaining, I'm KILLING it right now and there's lots of parts with long lead times in this lot. Need to get them cataloged and up on the internet for this week's business. It's really REALLY tedious and boring work, but the pay-off has never been better.

 I'll make a grip (1/2 for me 1/2 for Uncle Sam and California State) in the next 1-2 years. Once the allocation ends, probably will look to purchase a potential future retirement home (in another state) which I will make into an Air B&B / VRBO, etc. I already have plenty of scratch in the stock market (retirement accounts) so I plan to diversify. .. and I despise Crypto. ..

Already have too much in USD in the bank and as many will know our annual inflation rate (last 12 months) was 5.6%. So I guess that means the purchasing power of let's say $100k.. just became $94.5k in a year. 

I just can't think of another place to put it other than real estate (my Laguna Hills home, we paid off 3/4 years ago). Of course I'm always 'investing' in sand toys, but that department is well covered.

Date was set for my oldest daughter's, 29, wedding 10 weeks from now, Lake Arrowhead, so that's exciting. Get to walk my little girl down the isle. First one to get married of 4 kids.

Y'all be safe!

PS. Anyone have a different investing idea, I'd love to hear it... just not sure what else to do (1st world problems, right)? I bought these Crypto coins to eff with my Crpyto buddies, etc. Need more,.. I've given all of them away..  :rofl:
