Oh Deer... The Wall... The Paint...

Wednesday night, driving home from McCook, I schmucked a buck. Thats right folks, Rob hit another deer with his car.
Were this picture of higher resolution, you could see the deer hair stuck in the door handle.
Look ma, no mirror... don't worry I'll find a replacement.
The gas cap cover even got busted. Now people can get really cheap gas, if they have a piece of hose and good seal around their lips.
I would feel worse about a broken turn-signal if people around here actually used them.
What next? What to do about the car? I am thinking about getting something cheap to drive back and forth to class while I find the parts to do a good repair job on my Toyota. Or I might just keep driving this one meanwhile looking for something better. Cars are a hassle.
Now for my newest project... a raised flower bed and landscaped area in front of my house.
I painted the stair railing to match the color of the bricks and my house. The bricks were a freebie from a bass-playing friend of mine. Free is the best price.
Beautiful, isn't it. It will be sweet when I get the fill-dirt in and fresh flowers in the springtime.
When I was busy painting I decided to finish the paint job on my Pagora. All done!


I am getting my National Registry written test hand-scored. When I got the results in the mail, I found that I had missed one too many questions in one section of the test. In every other section, I had done pretty well, and overall I had a passing score. But becuase I missed in one section, I failed the whole thing. The hand score may pick up any mistakes that the computer scoring missed. One mistake on the part of the computer could mean that I actually passed. I'll keep ya'll posted on what the hand-score results show.

Howdy Robert Martinson II,
I'm impressed with what you wrote here in your Oh Deer... The Wall... The Paint... post. I gave up my search for wood dog houses information and wanted to hang out here on your blog - well done. I might make a blog like yours about wood dog houses, but I wouldn't try to compete with you. You're doing a great job Robert Martinson II.
You got a great thing going... by friend.
