2020 is hindsight, January Coffee thread.

Washoe County Nevada also has a drawing system for the general populace to receive the COVID vaccine.  Doing the eligible people by threat tiers, after Service techs of all sorts have been taken care of. 
Put in my app (as one of those over 70) last part of last week.  Got a notification I was selected on Friday.  Got first dose yesterday.  (The wife hasn't been so lucky; she has to wait for the next batch.)
So far, I haven't grown any abnormal appendages or had any overwhelming urges to turn liberal.   Go in for the second dose in 3 weeks (maybe that's the one that alter your political standing)!  If so someone shoot me for the Zombie I may have become!

I'm registered as of today I'm 1-C the wife is also but goes to 1-B in December.   


I'm tired of the extremist's on both sides, Santa should have delivered a lot of history and civics books for Christmas.  I am prouder every day as to have registered as an Independent from the Git Go and will never change so none of this on me as having voted what a party told me, I've always voted on my own thoughts and of course have done the right thing including sometimes not voting for either SOB to not give them an advantage.   I'm old, tired and grumpy and want both sides to just leave me the F alone.

If that's the case,  give credit where credit is due,  Trump got you the vaccine!!   If you grow an "extra appendage" please show for all to see!!!

Cool, nice to know the old phart is doing OK.   

Burgers for supper, rest of the 10 pounds went into Sloppy Joes I'm working on, probably have a couple later when done, rest is going in the ice box and will get back on 1 pounds each and vacuum sealed.   Rita and I feeling better and doing our own shopping were getting back to where we want, maybe a bit extra due to time and hating to go to the store, Lexie jokingly called me a food hoarder.  To be truthful we could eat, drink coffee and iced tea for a month before we needed supplies and could go longer but not as many choices, tea bags might run out but at the present rate the coffee would last till June.  Been buying the 2-3 pound whole beans at Cosco and putting in pint bags.  Have about 8 kinds to chose from and maybe 12-14 pounds total.   Don't like drinking the same kind for long times.

Got maybe 100 frozen Glen or Rita entries that just need popped in boiling water till hot.  Sure helps when we have a bad day, beats Door Dash crap in cost and quality.

Thanks for the Call Glen , good chat  glad to hear about  Roo , hope he gets back posting  here...

Took kid to school, may go lay back down a while, not sure, did a bunch of stuff around the house yesterday, may be a rest a bit more day, getting better and having more energy.

Going down to the Police station to register the new revolver and while out gonna pick up some nice red and yellow sweet peppers to slice for Chicken Fajitas.

Doctor's office called after my bloodwork yesterday with the results. He's putting me on an additional diabetes med. I guess sitting around in "social quarantine", taking too many trips to the refrigerator and cupboards, out of boredom or cabin fever, has elevated my A1C numbers a bit.

Expecting highs in the upper 40's today before a cold snap leading into the weekend. Flurries predicted, but no accumulation. Won't have to fire up the snowblower.

Enjoy the day.

Mine have went down since I found out about the problem, the weight hasn't but yet hasn't went up, so I monitor it for water retention and Heather says since the problem is my cooking and the blood numbers look good so not to worry about it.  Oldest daughter kinda yelled at me, thinks I go out to much, yeah 4-5 trips to the store a month, sorry I can't shop on line for groceries, tried that, half of what I want is not on line.   Got name on list for vaccinate so should be a little safer, not sure when though, they have to run the numbers and see where I fall.

[River City John]

There's a problem with your cooking?  

What, too many whole ingredients and not enough additives?

Bought a 10 pound tube of burger, sloppy joes are simmering as we speak, granddaughter don't like them (now listed as boomer food) so Rita and I will have to eat them.  OK tomorrow the left overs will be put in vacuum seal bags with enough for 5 in each one.   Rita made up 10 pounds of tators as scalloped potatoes and those are bagged, probably have 100 or more individual entree's ready to plop in a pot of boiling water for lazy nights.  Taco meat, different pasta and other things too, doing fried rice Sat and fried drum sticks, chicken butts were cheap, not talking about the 15 pound bag of rice I bought and repackaged.  Got maybe 5 pounds of coffee of different kinds in pint bags, open, grind put in pint jar and good for 3-4 days.  Different kind every few days.   Planned on doing that in 2019 but things went south, what we had was nice but had to do way too much door dash when we got home.  Even food from your favorite restaurant kinda sucks in the living room out of Styrofoam and off TV trays.   And it gets expensive, you know me, I can serve pretty dang good food for what a door dash McD's meal costs.

Batting 000 ,     1. County has no Vaccine, 2.  not taking any appointments on line, can't even get them on the phone, to get form.

3.  No Stimulus $600 as yet ...."SHE" got hers weeks ago , ( the first time around, last June they came together )

On the positive side , Penn bullets has shipped my 30 Mauser bullets.

[River City John]

This is what it looks like in the Montgomery Ward catalog.

[Major 2]

I had one just like it , it shot high , you may want to install a taller front sight .

[Delmonico]

Nice, I really would like one on a 61, a Pocket Police would be even better, but that's just me.

[River City John]

Major 2, I tried shooting high once, but it messed up with my accuracy.

I'll just remember to shoot as if they're all riding Shetlands.
