World of Tanks Blitz Review - Nintendo Switch

 This game has a serious problem with not being able to finish downloading resources on Nintendo Switch. Every time there is an update you end up trying to deal with the same error. It's a shame, because the basic gameplay is fun, addictive even. But with the inactive players, the lopsided matchmaking, the constant hangups, and the unbearably long load times, this game is nearly unplayable. Not to mention the toxic community which is further fueled by the emoji reactions after the battles. Until I see solid progress on these issues, I will never spend another hard-earned ruble on this game.

 The lathe has arrived! It's missing a piece though, so a quick email and they say they are sending it to me. A year of battling with this and hopefully the worry is finally over.

Facebook has quite possibly the shittiest customer service on the planet. None at all would be better.

 I am gradually lifting restrictions, one person at a time. It takes awhile. I am finally done with another big purge from my so called 'friends' list. This time I unfriended and blocked 110 names from the list. Everybody else was restricted. I am disgusted with Facebook. I spent over a year combatting a hacker who was trying to take over my account, attempting to control my posts and comments, trying to change my password, and those useless nerds that run Facebook didn't help me at all. In fact, they helped the hacker! I finally had to devise my own trap and caught the hacking lowlife, and in doing so, I came to the realization that many of my so called other Facebook 'friends' on the list could be capable of fucking with me the same way.

Country Gems Bowl Factory

 Here are a few recent items to come out of our bowl factory!



 Today's photo journal entry:







The Snowflake Snitch

I set a trap before bed the other night and first thing the next morning the Snowflake Snitch on Facebook had jumped right into it! HAHA! Now I know who has been doing this.




7:28 AM Snowflake Snitch:

Is everything alright, or are you just in Facebook jail?


8:46 AM Me:

No? Everything is the same as it always is. Why?


8:46 AM Snowflake Snitch:

I haven’t seen a post in over 4 days


8:48 AM Me:

Really? I've made a bunch. Other people are seeing them and liking them etc.


8:49 AM Snowflake Snitch:

Must be something goofy on my end then


8:50 AM Me:

Could be. When I get time I'll check and see if I accidentally put you on the naughty list or something! HA!

 It's a beautiful black walnut day!

Beautiful Day In The Woods

but the pile that I'm trying to haul up is still all frozen together. Takes a long time to hammer each piece apart and put it in the wagon. So far I've managed to get one small load up. I was surprised that I made it through the drifts along the field without getting stuck, and no tire chains. Soon to come to an end though, more freezing rain tonight and tomorrow.....

Worn Out

My fuckin gloves get worn smooth and then I drop the pieces of wood. It takes so much longer when I have to pick up every piece of wood three times. I'm finally done though.

Today Is The Day

for the monthly chimney cleaning and refilling the wood stack on the porch!

Made It Back

to the yard from the office with a very small load. I also made some repairs to the wagon. I couldn't get the hunk of plastic to fit back in where it belongs on the four wheeler, so I just put duct tape over the hole instead.

In other news, my stupid Facebook is getting slightly better to look at. I'm slowly dumping all the political losers from my friends list. It's the same ones that constantly bitched about politics for the last eight years and now that Obama is gone they're still finding stupid shit to bitch about. Delete.....

Today

laundry, fix the hole in the back of my four wheeler, then try to haul the last little bit of the pile I was working on up to the yard. Without tire chains.....

Lots Of Problems

Tried to get a load of wood up to the yard this afternoon. Got stuck. Broke the carrier off the front of the trailer. Somehow the trailer came unhooked and smashed a big hole in the compartment door on the back of my four wheeler. And broke a tire chain. I give up. The forester expects me to cut a year's worth of firewood in the three most difficult months of the year, in between all my other jobs and duties. I don't know how I'm ever going to get caught up.

Fern Dell Gorge

was beautiful today! We were the only people there after a fresh snowfall.
