What I Did Today To Allow Me To Keep Brewing

[Brewsmith]

I’m starting this thread because I think many of us intentionally (or out of necessity!) check things off the honey-do list to earn points with the significant other to offset the cost, time, and drinking, involved with this hobby. No actual brewing activities!

I’ll go first:

I started refinishing the bedroom furniture. I’m starting with the night stands. 120 sandpaper to get the finish off and some 220 to smooth it out. So far no need for wood putty, but I suspect the bed frame is going to be a different story. Hopefully tomorrow is paint.

Hmmm...A couple days and no takers. I think you may have laid it too bare. If we actually put these tasks in print, we risk confrontation and end up exchanging serreptitious task-oriented agendas for confrontation that will require emotional blackmail, and that never ends well for those of us whose brewing gear would dominate the household if left unchecked.

No task master for me. I changed the oil in the suv so I could keep using it to get sacks of malt. Now that's doing something to keep on brewing!

All I have to do to be allowed to keep brewing is make beer that she likes.

The garden needs tilling, but a tree fell across the path to the garden over the winter. so i need to cut up the tree and remove it so i can make a path to get the tractor to the garden.
