What in the HE** are you shooting in that thing? You may want to consider another powder. WOW. Why did you shoot a hole in the bench? Dummy rounds are good for clearing drills. We sometimes load our buddies mags with dummy rounds during timed shoots to practice clearing malfunctions. What did you decide about the Slide?

How do I say this.....I have a birthmark that covers a large portion of my face, have had to learn to live with it and accept it. Does it affect my daily life as far as being able to walk, talk and go about life in a normal manner? No, it only causes the occasional glance or look from those unaware of "port wine stains" or birthmarks. It makes me unique and gives me character.

To a certain extent, the same could be said about my "issue" with the slide. Is it perfect, NO. Did it hamper the way the gun performed or shot today? NO. Am I laying down and settling? Not yet. I will contact LB again next week and talk with him again.

After a thorough talk with Mayla who reminded me that I'm being a bit over concerned about a barely noticeable gap when I should be more concerned with making sure we can continue to pay the bills, think about others who have it less fortunate, to think of others that have serious illnesses, those who are barely making it by, etc, etc.

I am really lucky to have such a wonderful, grounded wife!

I find myself feeling a little guilty and a little sorry for making such a fuss over "my big toe hurts worse than your broken leg", as a close friend told me the other day when I was explaining the situation to him.

Time to get back to gratitude!!!
