California lead ban put a crimp on my squirrel shooting, covid hit and prices went through the roof for reloading supplies, my farmers are now allowed to poison the critters again, and I sold my property due to being too busy to maintain and watch it.

I’m only on a few forums and they all have experienced issues so I rarely take the time to post anything. Some bbq forums just died and went to farcebook type platforms that I never use.

The horses take all my time and money so guns are on hold. I haven’t pulled a trigger on a rifle in two years and it’s been six months for a pistol.

Working two jobs, 15-16 hour days, has put a crimp in free time. All my free time is spent working on my place  and helping the wife. Health issues come and go before you know it another year has passed. I have an engine to put in my Jeep that has been sitting for two years, several house projects sitting for years, and a few getting done.

Some day I will have time for hunting and guns again, it always runs in cycles for me.
