What have you accomplished this weekend?

Trimmed a hedge. Installed cold air intake on son's Trackhawk. Visited mother-in-law. Cleaned carb on lawn mower and mowed lawn. Cleaned gutters. Finished re-cap of Eight Deluxe.
Took wife out to lunch.

I think that's it.

1) Finished “greening” my Heathkit IG-5218 audio wave generator.

2) Drank too much.

3) Started a thread on AK and stalked numerous threads.

4) Did some research on bidets in case I run out of toilet paper.

...and today will be spent relaxing and reading.

Could not understand the older folks saying that when I was younger, until it happened to me in my early 30's. As a teenager I worked for 3 brothers pulling tobacco and can still hear them say "boy you aint old enough to have a back." I guess were old enough now

My first "paying" job was pulling tobacco in Mass at the ripe old age of 14. Didn't matter, parents took the money anyway.
 
Setup my new Klipsch SPL-100 10” sub that arrived yesterday, now my main “modern” system comprised of Klipsch RP-600M, NAD D 3045 integrated amp and U-Turn Orbit turntable is complete.

Gonna hit up the record store later to pick up the Abbey Road LP I have on hold and GTFO, and order take out from whichever local restaurant to do my part to keep the small businesses going. No panic buying supplies. And then catch up on household chores since I’m on a 20 day (or longer) paid leave from work.
 
Guess I picked a bad time to stop smoking bud huh? Nothing to do. I guess I could recap some speakers.
 
Figuring out an alternative way to do my weekly weightlifting since the state of France has closed (effin' near) everything owing to the Big Bug (well, virus). But I figured it out so all is well... on that front.
 
I'll amend my earlier answer. Made it to the gym this afternoon, being careful to wipe down equipment with disinfectant both before and after each use. Tried not to touch my face for a full hour, which turns out to be difficult.

Then back home, putzed around some more with an old NAD receiver I've been modifying (or depending on your outlook, torturing and maiming). It's almost done I think. Will post a thread about it in the DIY area later.
 
Had to go to work at the BD of Election for election on Tuesday here in Ohio. Went to grocery store twice since Fri. because of Corona Viris and the kids to have food since schools are closed down for 3 weeks last put up crown molding in my daughters bathroom.
 
Not too much of interest. Back from a week-long work trip of long days so kicking back with the TV/streaming services, doing a few loads of laundry, a little light cleaning, etc.
 
Yesterday I did some pond work - got the internal waterfall (filter box) working for the warmer months (I bypass it in winter). Goldfish are happy.
(Tho I do need to put on waders and pitchfork all those leaves out when its a bit warmer.)

Cleaned a lot of leaves away from the house, and tossed 4 bags of soggy mulch in the front gardens - my back will ache for days from the heavy wet mulch!
Oh, we did do Church today (my wife is the pastor) for a smaller than usual crowd.

Sorted and cable tied all my spare RCA , power, optical, AV, 3.5 & data cables which were a mess of spaghetti in a couple of boxes. All now crated up neatly.
 
Drank too much Friday night with brother and nephew from out of town. Took amp to repair shop on saturday...still under warranty. Ignored work I could have done at home. Cleaned up pool. Sprayed bugs and weeds. Watched lots of Live PD to kill time. Commented on general worthlessness of cat several times. Breakfast or dinner out 3 times to support small business and possibly spread disease. Getting ready for westworld tonight.
