Gaming and Fixing


Armored WarfareArmored Warfare

It's the last Sunday of February, no treatment today so hooray!  Yesterday it was almost 60, today it's 30 and a mixed bag of rain, snow, sleet...it's warm and dry at my keyboard.

So I've been working on the upstairs bathroom, the tub in particular.  Picked up a new faucet with a diverter for a hand held shower, which given the size of this bathroom is a must.  Trying to switch all fixtures over to the brushed nickle vs. the polished chrome.  The nickle looks nicer and is so much easier to keep clean.  There is some behind the wall plumbing work that needs to be done along with the rest of the job.  But, with a crawl space closet getting at the plumbing is very easy!  The final piece of the project will be changing the sink faucet to a single handled nickle faucet and then the bath will be complete!  Should look pretty nice and at least somewhat updated from years of nothing being done to it.  Have done some painting and put in a tile floor...well if you can call a 2' x 4' a floor?

Along with the bathroom project, I've been getting into on-line gaming a lot more then ever before.  I've tried a few different games but the one that I have the banner for above I seem to like the best!  Seems to be a very fun game to play.  After years of using the same keyboard and mouse, opted for a new G-910 keyboard and a G502 Proteus gaming mouse.  Both are LED back lit and designed for gaming..so thus far I am very happy with the choices.  The other pretty cool thing is Logitech has an app for the G-series you install on your phone and you can see PC stats and game stats on your phone vs. a little LCD screen that some of the other keyboards had.  When your tied to this desk for 30 hours a week for my dialysis treatments a guy has to have something to occupy his time?

On a totally new subject, after trying the credit/debt consoling path, which by the way I don't recommend at all.  They do not give a flying crap about you, while the lie through their teeth and tell you they do...they don''t!  Their loyalties lie 100% with the credit companies.  So don't be fooled by the rhetoric they spew!  Have now gotten a lawyer to file chapter 7 bankruptcy.  The only course left to get this giant ACME anvil off our shoulders!  The process has just started and it takes about 4 months and $1500.00 by the time it's all said and done.  I have enough things to deal with daily without have to deal with a bunch of assholes calling for money I don''t have any longer.

Well that's about it for this article of trivial ramblings, have a great Sunday and hopefully March comes in like a lion and goes out like a docile, warm baby lamb!  Later peeps, back to AW for me!
