-

-
The slingshot will decide my next brew

I havent been the most active on here lately. Havent been brewing much either. Perhaps Im letting myself get sidetracked by the current situation at hand.
But Im still the same irrational person. Buying things and trying to keep track of myself. Last week I bought a dozen donuts for a machine shop in ID cuz theyre working around the clock to keep up with demand. I got an initial thank you, which was nice. Only cost me $11
bought that Grain Belt snowboard. Gotta look up the binding thread size to hang it. Probably should be doing that instead of typing about my life on here.
wife had / has covid. We were supposed to go to a wedding in Estes Park CO and instead were quarantined. Shes been in bed for days trying to stay away from us. So I have two boys all to myself. Leaning a lil hard on technology and Dragon Ball Super trying to keep them entertained since we cant do anything. Took them up north for a night. That was fun. Just the boys.
Thank God for sling shots. Bought a limited edition one. Cost 3x more than my beloved one I own but I owe it to the company. They make outstanding products and I back the companies that back me.
I didnt even turn in my competition beer. Strangely enough, the dad of the little girl my Mother in Law watches won. So we know them pretty good. Hes been brewing for 2-3 years now. Good for him. I cant wait to try his beer on tap.
my Brother in Law got obsessed with rebuilding his Ruger Charger so of course I had to do one too. Every company is behind. Ordered my stock over a month ago. Hasnt even shipped yet. Itll be a pistol / rifle. Takedown so its a one stop shop, do all kinda firearm. 10” barrel & 18” barrel, red dot, 3x magnifier. Its gonna be fun to bring up north.i need to find cheaper hobbies. Trying to make my house my hobby. Get rid of clutter, simplify, be happier. Thats my goal.

Looks like a lot of hops. When it finalized, double the late additions. Cant go wrong with more hops. Unless you clog your valve ports, eh @Jdub?

Long Story: Two saturdays (brew day) ago, I was really tired. Sunday, even more tired. Monday, tickle in my throat. Tuesday, sore throat. Wednesday, I left work. Theres about 400 signs posted saying that if youre sick, they dont want you there. Got tested for Covid that day. Thursday off while I waited for results, Friday I stayed home even though I knew I was negative but they didnt... Monday, went into work. Actually got walked out because I still had "symptoms". Told not to come back until I am symptom free. So I took today, Tuesday off as well since Im still coughing up shit and throat is a little scratchy. Just got off the phone with my boss, told me not to come in tomorrow and he'll call me tomorrow to discuss what Thursday holds. So, my work is telling me to stay home. Allegedly people are mad that I even tried to come back Monday despite a negative Covid test. This is a place where I told my supervisor I was sick and was going straight to the ER while im almost in tears and had almost fainted a few moments before and all he told me was "go take a shit, youll feel better.". The same place that punishes you for calling in sick by forcing you to work later on Fridays. Now my boss is like "under no circumstance do we want you here if youre sick". "If youre trying to come back for financial reasons, we will give you a pay day loan". I mean, Im glad Im being encouraged to stay home if I am not well. However, I never thought Id be forced to stay home like this. Im sure things will calm down in November, but hopefully a little bit of this concern for the employees health stays. And honestly, Ive put it off long enough. Freaking 7 days off and I havent brewed!!!! That changes tomorrow. If not right now! Oh and I get to see my boys off to their first days of school tomorrow!

New brew set up. Limited on overhead space (I always really was). Knew what I needed but didnt want to spend that much on it. Guess what? Its on sale!!! Was $65 and is now $23!!! Sentinel Boil Over Minder is a great way to drain a BIAB Bag if you have to walk away
