    POS well pump was installed in 1973, guess it didn't really owe me anything more. Very happy to have water again.

    Doing dishes and laundry, and I go and flush the toilet just for fun. My wife is going to be so happy. She goes nuts if she doesn't shower, I have gone 14 days twice, Columbia recovery in East Texas and in the bush of the Cranberry Portage fire up by Flin Flon Canada. Happy wife happy life, I did not supply my own pump because the guy damaged a fender getting to the well so it was a $1200 bill but oh well.

    Seeing those azaleas blooming first of all!
    Being in a position to work from home.
    Being healthy and I have the lab work back today to back that up!
    Getting my littles one for the latter half of spring break.

    Having a great group of people to weather this storm with. Social distancing through social media. I've always been one of these silver lining type folk and after watching Germ and Fix agree in the political venting thread, well close enough for horseshoes or hand grenades at least, I have some hope for the this Country getting back on track, together.

    Oh, and I'm thankful for my remote control so I can change the channel when The View comes on. Bunch windbag idiots.

    Morels starting to pop, a pretty food plot about to hit its stride and a walk through the woods with the knowledge my father passed on to me. So being his son I texted him a few pics to rub it in.

    That tends to happen when my wife has been home with kids while I am still working. I am getting the "Get the kids away from me or I will kill you all" look the instant I walk in the door. Honestly, I am surprised I even had time to take of my runners.
