My wife (quite out of the blue) announced that she'd like to go fishing (and start fishing again as a regular past time). Color me shocked. We've never fished together, she has been in the boat when I was fishing, but that's about it. She used to fish all the time with her dad and brothers but when he passed away she just let all her stuff and his be picked over and distributed to the family. So We went out during the lovely Memorial Day sales and got her a couple poles and reels, one medium one light, a tackle box, some hooks, weights and bobbers and a couple lures. Since we were out anyway (and I haven't had a new pole in 20+ years) I grabbed a nice Bass Pro model rod and a nice baitcaster reel. They make some very attractive equipment these days. Quite different from the old days where you had the option of brown, black, white ... heck maybe that's it. Anyway, fun stuff.

I don't know ... taking your wife fishing. I can't picture mine standing for hours doing the same thing over and over again and only walking away with one ... oh wait, that's how she shops for clothes, so maybe it's the same thing.

Well I played with this tv for a while,Then I realized I was messing with it to much and decided to see if I could find another tv on Craigslist.
So I found and like this one and I like it better,Which I paid $50.00 for it.

And I gave the Sony to my roommate for his bedroom and is an upgrade from the Sanyo 24" LCD tv I gave him 4 years ago.He really likes the Sony I gave him.

I found out this tv has a bad speaker,But a great picture.
So I was looking at Sound Bars and they are expensive,And I decided to look at PC Speakers and found this setup,Which sounds great compared to the tv speakers.Plus I can always use this on my computer to.

Bought my self some haircare products. Mainly for my beard

 

[PitCarver]

I bought a "Hawk Decoy", today...

Hopefully it will keep the real birds from messing on the car I bought 2 weeks ago.

Oddly enough, there's a report out that bird poop is the number 2 reason not to get a red car.

 

[Marty_Since87]

Finally got me a case.. And bought me body wash as well.

I bought a trip to the vet for Peggy Sue. She smashed her mouth badly because she decided to strike at Raphael because 10 years later she doesn't like dogs walking by her tank I guess. She slammed into the glass and got all messed up. I waited a few days but it didn't get better so off we went. She'll be fine, just a ton of swelling so she got an injection to help that. Stupid snake!

Probably just in a bad mood (do snakes get moody?) Anyway hope she recovers.

 

[Clementine_3]

Sometimes I call her Cranky Sue or Pissy Sue, she has her days. She's never done anything so silly before though. But yeah, they do get 'moody', I'm just glad nothing is wrong with her but really! lol

Oh man, good thing she'll be ok. my friend had tons of snakes and the only incident I've heard of was when my friends little brother went to feed it and it jumped at him and bit his arm.

 

[Clementine_3]

went to feed it and it jumped at him and bit his arm.

Yeah, you have to be super careful at feeding time (depending on the snake of course), 3 of my 4 are feeding strikers.

1 of these and 2 extra batteries (paid $149 for the combo) https://www.lowes.com/pd/Kobalt-24-...-Cordless-Combo-Kit-with-Soft-Case/1000061645 Have to rebuild my deck (soon). Figured these would be adequate for the job.

Ended up purchasing the matching 6 1/2" circular saw. Made it an early Father's day present to myself, plus came in very handy for rebuilding my deck. https://www.lowes.com/pd/Kobalt-24-...ular-Saw-with-Brake-Bare-Tool-Only/1000061649

13 2" x6" x 8' joists.
18 5/4" x 6" x 16' decking boards.
2 2" x 6" x 16' frame boards
Various screws and nails.
3 6 step stair stringers.

 

[lunatic59]

They do come in handy. I have an older DeWalt 18v. Coincidentally, I bought it when I rebuilt my deck on my old house.

3 6 step stair stringers.

Edit: the stair stringers were not what I needed and would not have met code since made from 2" x 10" material. So 3 2" x 12" x10' ground contact approved boards now cut to 8 step stringers instead. Why is wood so damn expensive?

I got one like that for my LG Stylo 2.
Not a bad case for $10.00,huh?

Okay I have been thinking about starting this thread for a while.
Now you can post anything that was your last purchase and you can post in the thread every time you purchase something.

Just purchased for the wife:

Wood doesn't grow on trees, y'know.

What wood we do without you Luna?

 

[dontpanicbobby]

Cancer sticks.

 

[Marty_Since87]

Got me a pair of white tunnels.

 

[olbriar]

Those look huge to me. Birds will be nesting in there if you aren't careful. My youngest daughter is into such. Me... I'm into ink. Good luck... it looks painful.

 

[PitCarver]

Swiss Army Knife...

 

[olbriar]

I hope your knife serves you well. I have a similar model that I've used for around 30 years. Mine no longer looks as nice as yours but it still functions as it did day one. I carry this one:

Omega Planet Ocean automatic, see my avatar.
I'm very ocd about my watches, have around 100 in my collection, and it's keeping excellent time at about +1 second per week.

Here is everything completed but the rails and that divider (2 unit townhouse-style condo). It's nothing fancy, pretty much exactly like the one I tore down, just not about to crumble to dust.
