    Default Cabin fever

    So we lost power around 8 this morning, and my girls have been laying on the couch watching movies on the phone. So that left me with nothing to do, I have gone thru my safe, cleaned my guns, gone thru my turkey hunting stuff/ammo, put new fishing line on a few reels, now I’m running out of things to do. So those of you with or without power what did y’all do today since there was nothing to do.

    Just got back from camp Friday night. I turn a few duck gizzards into 40 gallons of blue cats.

    Made a massive batch of catfish stew today and put up gallon bags of fillets.

    Listen to your elders. Not because they are always right but because they have more experiences of being wrong.

    A pot of catfish stew sounds pretty good about right now

    Knives can always use a sharpen. I have power, but I finished reading Bendigo Shafter by Louis L’Amour. I was hoping I would get to read it while looking at some snow. No such luck. Now I’m about to make some chicken wings.

    Working on my taxes. Earliest I've ever worked on them and it's boring.

    If you cleaned all of your guns that quickly you need more guns.

    It was just really a wipe down, but I agree I need more

    Went hunting.

    Left Greenville when the power went out and stopped for a quick hunt on the way home.

    I'm glad my boys are young enough to still want to play in the snow but sitting around with nothing to do would be awesome right now. Instead I've had snow in every hole in my body multiple times today.

    Go through your clothes and get rid of what you don't or can't wear anymore

    Been out since this morning turning people’s lights on. We were very lucky. Was right on the verge of being real bad.

    Went through emergency bags, separated a mess of fish hooks that got tossed around and jumbled up, drank some Woodford. But we didn’t lose power…would have probably done the same without power though.
