NWI INGO General Post part 17

The basement is coming along. Just dropped a out $1500 more toward the gun room. Buy once, cry once.

Monday morning. Time to see if there is ice on the roads going to work.

 

[jedi]

It's all clear in chiraqi.

 

[tv1217]

Hmm, I should go to bed I have to leave for work in 8½ hours

Hey it’s me again. Trying to, at least when I think about it, lots of stuff going on, become active again. Any plans in the works for any meet and shoots coming up soon. I’m gonna try budgeting a few bucks for ammo next moth, I literally have 20 rounds of 4 year old hollow points for my 1911, that I bought several months ago, and still haven’t shot it yet.

Between paying off past bills, new bills, and still dealing with health issues, I just haven’t had a chance to go shooting, so ammo hasn’t been on my mind. But I’m really getting the itch, haven’t been shooting in probably over 4 years. And I’d like to actually take this bad boy out and put a few rounds through it before I carry it. Although, there’s been a couple instances I’ve carried it, just in case, figured if anything, I’d have something to hit or throw, lol.

it’s hard for me to actually have a planned day, but they do work out occasionally. Sunday’s work best for me, because if I’m feeling ok, but not 100% I have a few people who could drive me. Sometimes the day starts well, but after any type of activity, driving home would be out of the question.

heck, I haven’t gone back in the thread to far, but even a meet and eat would be great. Would like to see you all, it’s been a long time. You all came through for me these last couple years. I don’t know where I’d be if it wasn’t for all your help. (Meet and eat for me would have to be in March too, this month is a broke one)

I haven’t been able to start getting ahead yet, due to past bills, collections, building (trying) credit, and helping people out the best I can. But looks like starting next month I’ll be able to actually putting a few bucks aside while doing the rest. Sunday’s work best for me for meet and eats too, possibly Saturday evenings occasionally.

Hoping to at least make it to the youth shoot this year. But won’t really know until the day of. But like I said, I’d like to meet up, hang out, bs a little, and all that good stuff soon. I’m the meantime I’ll try to get on here once a day or so, but in reality, I’ll probably be lucky to remember to jump on once a week or so.

Thanks for being there for me and Daisy, it helped me in more ways than you could know. Talk to you all later.

Shooting 45? I'm sure I can find a way to donate a box of ammo.

Our M&Ss fell apart when DNR changed their rules to no carry.

That was the final straw. There were other changes they made concerning our gatherings that had the trend going that way before that though.

 

[KLB]

And Jedi abandoned us.

Pinky was the glue that held it all together. It's a lot of time and effort organizing those things.

 

[Snapdragon]

Yep, because of Pinky, I haven't had one of T-Star's maple bacon cupcakes in years.

 

[t_star]

Hey ladies and gents! I heard we’re blaming Pinky for things falling apart!

 

[tv1217]

Always

Hey ladies and gents! I heard we’re blaming Pinky for things falling apart! 

Well, DUH!

 

[2A_Tom]

And Jedi abandoned us.

In his defense, it is a pain in the butt to try to organize these meets.

We only have 4-5 signed up for a simple M&E.

I haven't even tried to assemble one in over a year because the last one only 1 other member, his wife and I showed up. Don't get me wrong they were great company, but it would have been nice to have a larger group.

Don't feel like I am calling anyone out, because I am not. I realize that life has it's complications and priorities.

That being said, try to make time to come out and support the group. Even if you are not going to the show. The restaurant has good food and it is a great venue to recount your BS stories.

Do us a favor and spread the word.

ETA: Porter County Knife and gun show Meet & Eat

 

[KLB]

The M&S really are a PITA. Not only are you tracking who will what attend, but what guns they were bringing, what food they were bringing, bringing your own stuff, plus food. We used to have friendly competitions, which had to be organized and run. Jedi did a great job of it for a long time.
I would fill in for him when he couldn't make one, and it made me appreciate what he did all the more.

TMI.

 

[Snapdragon]

Pinky did a TON of work putting those things together.

I know he did. We're just funnin' with him. Pinky, you can come out now. We still love you.

 

[2A_Tom]

Broken record here. There is a M&E this Saturday at 2:30 at Industrial Revolution.

It was set up just for all of you that are commiserating the elusive M&S.

We can even discuss the next M&S at the M&E.

 

[actaeon277]

Hey ladies and gents! I heard we’re blaming Pinky for things falling apart!

First Kevin drops in, and now Tstar.

 

[2A_Tom]

Good to see that. I haven't seen them since the M&E at Shoops in CP a couple of years ago.

Ghost of Winter, Gunbunnies and even Pinky were there.
