Rings

OK, we have the front of the Coif done.
It took 22 individual 'strings' to make it, plus the connectors.
So, it takes 59 'rings' to make a string, and 20 rings to connect them... which adds up to a grand total of 1,738 rings!! Oh my aching hands Cutting each one out, with small nippers, yea, that can cause anyones hands to ache.

Now, as we see it, we have to make at least 4 more sets of that 'fabric'. One for the back, one for the side (one should take care of both sides), and one for each arm!

All total, it should weigh about 50 pounds!!
ROTFLOL...My Son says after we get done with his, then we should start on MINE!! NOT in THIS LIFETIME!!! Im trying to 'lose weight', not voluntarily adding on weight Though, I may try and wear his a few times and walk about it in, and see if it helps me lose some... But I dont need to go to the extreme and make my own, sheesh!

I simply told him that, me being retired, it gives me something to do, finishing his, and that will be good enough for me. But, it should look awesome when we are done...sure cant wait for 'that day'.

My Wife woke me up at 12 noon and told me that she has an appointment at 2:30 and that I should get up quick and get to exercise... No thanks! I am not going to be rushed into exercising, be it to, or comeing from, and doing them.. So, Im skipping today.

I dont know why, but, I keep waking up with a sour stomach, every day now. Could it be the abdominals doing it? What I eat? Hard to tell.
After my first cup of coffee, it seems to ease up, so, I dont go for any thing, such as Tums or Rolaids. Just makes a guy wonder though??

OK, Wife just got up from my easy chair and is getting me coffee, (naw, dont start on me now, she brings it cause she LOVES me!! I dont even ask for it, its 'automatic' most of the days)

Just took a sliver of glass out of my Wife's foot! She claims she didnt break any glass in the kitchen, but, that doesnt mean that the "dog" didnt bring something up from the basement, chew it and bust glass on the floor...Could of been a bead or something, but, its out now and she is walking fine ... Yea, that dog of ours will chew up 'anything', from placemats, to rubber balls, to stuffed animals, and have the stuffing out all over the floor to be swept up. Real PAIN if you ask me... But, my Wife and kids love him, and I like him too, so we tolerate the rascal... But, someday, he is going to get into something that is not going to be so forgiving, and we wont know about it, cause its in the basement... No, I am not going down there to 'child proof' it. If he is stupid enough to chew through the wrong thing, well, Darwin's theory will take over and he is out of the gene pool... OH YEA, Wife already got him fixed...so, he 'is' out of the pool already ROTFLOL... Poor fella... Makes a guy cringe just thinking of it.

And on that note, I will leave for the day, unless something exciting happens and I post again.

I wish you well...
