Dullsters

They usually come in the afternoon, but I like to put it out the night before so I don't forget. One house has their recycling out, but I'm pretty sure that's next week.

I often feel tired and the sleepy around 2-4 pm and I’ll take a nap. They’re usually an hour or two long.

I thought the food would spoil soon, so I finished the rest today.

My avocado recipe is 1 avocado squished up with a fork, salt, lemon juice, Mexican taco seasoning

Bit of a marathon session today in the wood shop finishing a computer stand I'm building for my father. Did most of the construction of a drawer box. Had to do some tuning on my dovetail jig, it's not as definite as I'd like it to be, but the drawer box turned out okay.

Worked up some fatigue, my cat Izzy helped me take a nap on the couch. If you don't have an air purrifier, I highly recommend one.

Woke up hungry, made a stir fry. Still missing a tooth so a stir fry is a great way to get an actual hot nutritious meal in me. Thoroughly enjoyed it, too.

My second son will be here in less than a month. So I've spent the past 2 months doing some major renovations in the nursery, the kitchen and now our master bedroom.

The nursery was a lot but easy enough, I built out a closet since there wasn't one, reframed and put in new windows (the ones ones must've been a thousand years old by my guess) and laid new floor and trim all around.

The kitchen sucked, total gut and remodel, new drywall all around including the ceiling, managed to keep the counters and cabinets, they're not my favorite but they work and saved us a nice penny, fixed a leak I found under the sink. The ceiling was awful, I'm so happy it's done but my back is still yelling at me.

Now I'm on to the master bedroom, I'm extending the closet opening. The closet itself is 8x2 but the opening is a foot and half for some reason. Putting in new windows, replacing the subloor since most of it is falling apart and rotted (has been for a while), laying new floors and patching up some drywall.

When we moved into this house it was falling apart. "We'll have time to do it" we said a week before finding out we were pregnant. So I started putting in overtime and got a second job so not much got done aside from my sons room which was rushed and not my best work. This time around I'm very grateful to have the time and money to do all this. I've done everything myself with a lot of help from my 3 year old. He loves being 'construction guys' and has actually been really helpful through everything. It's been a lot, but my heart is full and happy.

...I was wrong. The instance hadn't federated to my instance yet. I fell a slight sense of loss.

I've been a follower of the other (dull_men) sub and, of course have hit the dull.men forum at (yuck). I even watched James May try his hand at being uninteresting on TV. I have come to the conclusion that I am so dull that I have nothing interesting to contribute. This is my legacy and I know that this cements my place here.

...or rather the woodwork around them. It was a DIY job that I was not looking forward to. The steps are covered in carpet, so it proved particularly challenging not to make a mess. Before doing the actual painting, I had to repair several minor scuffs and scratches.

The end result is quite decent.

I almost didn't as it's not that full a load, but decided to do it anyway.

I have a day off from work today and I'll be spending it dismantling and then reassembling two beds.

I’ve heard it been called both ways

If you go to an asian grocery you might be able to find a bottle of tonkatsu sauce. It's the stuff they put on pork katsu and chicken katsu at Japanese restaurants. Put it on some vegan chicken tenders from the grocery, and you've got homemade vegan chicken katsu that tastes just like the stuff they serve at restaurants. Rice optional.

4.4% Lager. Think I'll have a couple.

Saw a community on lemmy had moved. Decided to subscribe to it in the new place too. I was subscribed to it before and liked it well enough.

Only a 10 ft x 4 ft section and it took all day and 5.5 bags of mulch. Have 2 more sections to do as well. Hope I can do that sometime in the next year.

I didn't want to waste it so i had to throat it down. It was not good. I felt sick after it but i think that's just placebo.

I look forward to seeing this community continue to grow and thank you for being here.
