What Did You Do Today?

Just wondering what every one does during the day and evening?
Work? Play? Fish? Camping? Gardening? Smoking? You get the idea........
I work up early to put the venison jerky in the dehydrator and took the fiancé to work and then when I got home I made breakfast. I fixed the bath sink and took a nap. Then I sat around having a few beers waiting for the jerky to get done. Tried to read a book but that's not for me. Oh yea, I cut the lawn b4 the rain. I better save sum stuff 4 2maro.
Just wondering what you guys do during the day and evening. Let's here it.

Exactly right Carpio, your heart is in fine shape!
It's always nice when you don't have to stress on waiting for the test results to come in!
BTW Gill brought over some wine that you gave him to give to me! Thank you! There were two bottles that I particularly enjoyed :)

If they don't like what they see Carpio, you don't leave the office, so you should be good to go!
Woke up this morning about 1 am and heard a weird buzz. Almost sounded like a phone on vibrate.
Could hear it equally in every room, never louder or quieter, I was scratching my head!
Then I heard the stat click and kick in the AC, but the blower motor in the furnace didn't start, then it clicked, it was the furnace blower motor making noise.
The blower would try to start, go off on internal overload (due to locked rotor amps), and try to start again about every 30 seconds.
Been a minute since I pulled out the HVAC tool bucket. The guys at work always give me grief if they see a tool in my hand, been out of the field for years. I remind them that I was scratching out a paycheck in the field when they were in diapers lol!
At any rate, got a new blower motor, had to pull the circuit board out first, along with pretty much every wire in the furnace - as the circuit board was screwed to the back of the blower housing.
2 hours later got her up and going. Took me longer than it should have for sure, but have not pulled one of them in 20 years lol!
House temp was in the 80's, so glad it's running again.
It's kind of funny, when I was out in the field I always thought it would be nice to be in the office, now that I'm in the the office, it's kind of nice to work on a furnace again lol!
Life can be funny that way!

Got home from work, hooked up the small boat, grabbed a musky rod, one particular Plano 3700 full of select musky lures, and headed out for "an hour or two." Literally 5 casts into the evening and I stuck a solid, chunky one. As I got it to the boat, I could see it had one hook close to an eye, so I elected not to net it at all and have it thrash. Rather, I coaxed it alongside the boat and popped it off quick and sent it on its way with no pics. 20 minutes later, I hooked another one, somehow losing it part way back to the boat. Fished for another 45 minutes with no action, trying 3 other lures. Talked to 2 other fisherman at the landing for a while, gassed up the boat on the way home, now repairing the lacerations in the one lure that got shredded this evening.
