    The Wretched Mess Garage

    I was actually able to use up all but 2 of the old bricks. Then it was time for 3/4" crushed rock. LOTS of it. Now to rebuild the fire pit, get out the lawn chairs, and sit my tired old **** down for a while.

    The Wretched Mess Garage

    Remember I said I used the old brick pavers for edging? I edged the walk way{both sides!} from the front deck to the side yard gate. I edged the flower bed around the other side of the house. And one other flower bed I didn't get a picture of. I even put bricks under the garbage and recycle bins!

    The Wretched Mess Garage

    Years ago, I built a brick patio and fire pit area in the side yard. And it was really a nice spot for entertaining and roasting marshmellows. It was also great for my cast iron dutch oven and camp cooking. But, over the years tree roots had pushed up the brick work and made it actually unsafe...

    2 Sluggo's Garage

    I remember those old Anco cabinets from my days pumping gas in "service stations". Back when you actually got service. Tire repairs, brake jobs,oil changes, and, WIPER BLADES! I pushed many of those things out in the mornings and back in at night. Dang! I'm old. {When did that happen?}:lol_hitti

    The Wretched Mess Garage

    WooHoo! I actually got my lights a full day early. After finishing up some promised,long over due, yard work, I started installing them. They have a nice "diamond plate" look to them. Although, you can't really see it after installation. They are supposed to hang by chains, but, I couldn't leave...

    The Wretched Mess Garage

    It's been a while since I've had a chance to post anything here. As of January 8th, my stores manager was fired for treating the female and non-hispanic employees like ****. Even if it's true, you can't call out an employee{in front of customers and other employees}as a "fat,mouthy,ignorant...

    As long as you don't get a fever along with that tired feeling you should be okay. This Corona virus thing is getting crazy. My wife says I'm too cheap to get Corona virus. I would get "dos equise" instead.:lol_hitti

    The Wretched Mess Garage

    Hello world! I have been busy the last few months. I have helped my daughter move...twice! Once into the rental house. And once after her landlord blamed the flooded basement and the broken pipe that caused it on them. On to better things! We had our big annual Christmas party in the garage...

    Nice job on the meat gods burnt offering. That looks like the way I like 'em. A "severe" searing on the outside{but not burnt} and dark red in the middle. Then...devour like a savage while hot! I think I'm going to bust my **** on the yard this weekend and then find myself one those "offerings"...

    The Wretched Mess Garage

    I went to purchase some replacement florescent tubes at the local box store and was surprised to find out there is now a separate "environmental surcharge" on them. The 12-pack of tubes was $29.99. The surcharge was another $10.00! So it's basically 30% extra to keep you from tossing them in the...
