Just spent the day doing house chores. Cleaned the pool, trimmed the hedges, pulled weeds, put together our new Viking grill, hung new drapes and reupholstered a hallway table. That more than justifies the heavy pour of VOF '62 in my tumbler.

What did you do today...and what did you pour as your reward?

I was on a ladder most of the day, trimming the lower branches off trees - fortunately, I did this prior to havingf a very generous pour of Elijah Craig 18 y.o...

(Of course, if I had it before my tree climbing, I might have been willing to go higher...:grin: )

LOL Mat. :lol: What a coincidence. It was rainy here this morning, so I decided to do some inside spring cleaning and a few chores too. Did dishes, to start the day, then began an on going process of laundry and giving my computer/bourbon room a thorough cleaning. I'm also taking the time to rearrange it a little, and update my inventory spreadsheet. :rolleyes: I've been treating myself to some Pappy 15 throughout the day. :grin: Cheers! Joe

Today and yesterday I mostly wrote procedures for work in anticipation of getting new equipment.

I'm about half done. If I did these at work I'd never get them done.

I did have a little WLW 117.9 this morning as mentioned in another thread.

This morning I took the boat to a nearby island for a few hours with the cousins and we sat on the beach, and then went out kayaking through the marsh this afternoon. I definitely deserve this pour of ND OGD 86!

I am sad to say I suffered through the beginnings of a cold all day, and my only pour was a generous shot of Vick's Formula something or other.

But I DESERVE a good pour of Pappy 15 that is calling my name.

I sat through 3 games of softball my daughters team was playing in, for the second day in a row. They went undefeated and won their tournament, the second in 2 weeks. Unfortunately, I have to work midnights tonight so I'll be toasting Memorial day with something nice, but yet undetermined!

After a week of stress, grief and living at a hospital 24 hour type days, I am tonight peacefully contemplative with pours of Louisville Special Reserve, Pappy 15, WT Old No. 8 (93), WT Rare Breed (95) and Very Rare Old Dowling BIB 16 year, distilled at reg. dist # 5 in 1953.

Popped a new bottle of ERSB in celebration of my acceptance to nursing school, then followed that with pours of OWA and ORVW 107. I only hope I can keep up the pours with my nose to the grindstone!

Pretty easy day.... just a few yard chores and then prep for a BBQ for my kids and their families plus a few of our friends. Feeding 15 folks does end up being work! Just a few pours of VW 10/90 late in the evening...

Congratulations on your acceptance. Sounds like you're already well acquainted with the benefits of self-medicating. :grin:

Thanks for the congrats, guys! I'll probably be making up for missed pours on the weekends. The waiting will only make them taste that much sweeter! :grin:

I deserve the couple of pours of Blanton's I'm enjoying right now because I get to spend the rest of the day at my wife's brother's house... who hates whiskey of any kind. I'll be drinking Budweiser the rest of the day.:rolleyes:

Sound painful...except for your pre-visit attitude adjustment.

Sat on the couch all day weaving in and out of consciousness. Now sipping on a new bottle of Elmer T. Lee. Not bad stuff.
