That's what I'm saying but she was using the SWM(BO) scale and the back pain is making her beotchy.

DesertBrew said:Ok, I think it was three white lies over the weekend. 1st, a backgrounder. She hurt/has a bad back (spine L3/L4) and I had to do pretty much all of the house cleaning.
Sat morning house cleaning
swmbo: Did you use windex on all of the glass/marble tables in the living room?
Desert: Yes dear (busted).
Sat night party (I was supposed to be DD but she wasn't really drinking)
swmbo: How many jello shots and beers did you have?
Desert: 2 & 3. Wrong she was watching & counting. It was 3 & 4. I just lost count .
Sun morning NFL at the bar and the rest of the day.
I didn't really do anything wrong but somehow guilt was set upon me as I left for the bar and then brought a buddy home and we polished off the IPA. Guess she wanted me to be more productive on Sun.
Good to be back to work!! :rockin:
Nyxator said:Added my immersion chiller to the last 10 min of the wort boil and ended up letting the vinyl hose get too close to the propane burner. It melted the end I needed to hook the chiller up to my faucet, and I had to do a last minute repair. Putting the vinyl hose on the 212 degree copper was... interesting. :rockin:

mummasan said:I usually brew on my patio - but because of rain I brewed in my carport. Burned both my hands attempting to put sparge water in my mash tun. I picked up a pot of water that had been heating up on my propane burner and halfway to the mash tun I realized I forgot to use the potholders...oops
Later during the same brew session I was sanitizing my glass carboy. It had maybe one gallon of water in it. As I held it out to empty the sanitizer it slipped, fell and broke on my driveway. Some glass cut my heel and still have a scar...oops.
To finish my brew, I was walking around with a bloody paper towel around my heel and a plastic bag of ice for the blisters on my hands. The beer turnout out ok...not my best though.
I will never, ever brew in my carport again.
