THE CZickness XLIX....Tackling 2023 with CZ style...

[ChrisK]

Need to run it today.

I'd pay money for eight hours of sleep. I seem to have gotten into this routine of 3 hours of sleep...1-2 hours of wide awake and then broken sleep.

It is probably just the excitement of getting a couple black powder pistols?

so, we're back to the "tub Buddy's" then......?

I got a full 8 hours of sleep and fell asleep pretty easily! I think the light therapy is helping. Good mid morning all!



Wife is going to visit a girlfriend for the weekend so will have to see what kind of trouble Remy and I can get into this weekend!

 

[DadSmith]

Up @ 4:15...still got 8 hours.

I'm good.

Still crawling back with this deeeeeeeep cough.

Today is starting out good tho'...no coughing last night or right now...win, right??

I've had a cough since after Christmas. It just doesn't want to go away.

 

[Ruger_Ronin]

I'm good at the 6hr range. My bladder controls my bioclock for me. Up to pee with the dogs even without them.

Stirring gravy and off to Lil' Nashville for lunch and general shenaniganery today.

My nights run about the same, except I get 2 hours in 2 hours up until I get up usually between 0530 and 0630.

I've been trying melatonin started with 3mg I'm now taking 12mg and its finally starting to help.

I've got a white oak, and a Jack oak that I'm going to cut down today if it isn't to muddy. White oak I can get to pretty easy the Jack oak is in a rough spot to get to when wet.

Morning folks. Out running this morning with mama and mini me. Breakfast and menards. Finishing coffee while planning/researching stuff for our Yukon build. Then it’s outside for some wood cutting to finish a house project. Or at least get closer to finishing it..

That’s the exact one I was looking at. Held it, fondled it, pulled the trigger in SA and DA, asked questions about it, stared at it, thought about it… saw it on their website this morning (was looking at it probably when you posted lol). Thought “man that looks sharp. And 10mm.” But money…

Yes, that last step gets me every time! Especially when I could use that money "more responsibly" whatever that means. LOL

We purchased this super clean 2003 Yukon XL back when gas was about $1.30 a gal… When fuel shot up, we parked it and got my wife a fuel efficient vehicle that worked with our budget and only drove it on trips. This year we’ve decided to enjoy life a little more, cut back slightly on the monthly house payment, which only pushes us back about a year and a half on our payoff date, so we can go on more adventures and drive this nice big comfy rig.



So I’ve been doing maintenance repairs and a bunch of research about some modifications to make it more capable off road. Plan is to take it on a nice week long primitive camping adventure and explore the Ozark Mountains as we visit with her dad in Arkansas in June.

I can’t stand tents and setup, so the plan is to sleep in the truck, which requires making a loft bed for the girls. I’ve got a plan and some wood. What could possibly go wrong? Lol

Other plans include a small lift, bigger tires and if the budget allows a winch just in case… as well as a list of other small items to make it up to snuff.

Not a Staccato… Congrats by the way @ChrisK that looks amazing!

Got the Warren Tactical sights finished up and Frankenstein #2 is officially together. But I still have to blend and blue the ejector and extractor. I like these sights. I like the small fiber optic dot (I know… I might regret that in 15-20 years). I also like the more open sight concept. I never really liked the big blocky rear sights and felt like they cover too much of the target. I always wondered why more sights didn’t have the corners cut down to less obstruct the view. That’s what theses sight aim (no pun intended) to do. And at around $45 I feel like they are a great value. Of course sights never turn out in pics right but I tried my best.

Citadel frame, Remington slide, and various other quality parts from EGW, Ed Brown, Wilson Combat, and Briley.
