Busy weekend this time around.
On top of a pretty full plate at work today, I've got a pre-surgery visit with the ortho doc who'll be removing the plate in my elbow. (The surgery happens in 11 days.) After work I'll head to the house to load up all the guitars and other gear for the band's monthly stop at the Dragonhorn Tavern. Starting at about 6:00, I'll load up, set up, play for 3 1/2 hours, tear down, load up, and unload all the gear back at home, by about 2:30 AM. No wonder I'm sore after a gig. This rock & roll business is a lot of work, lol. We tell people that we play for free, but we charge to move the equipment. This will be our last show for about 6 weeks, since I'll be out of commission while my elbow heals back up.
Saturday, my pool team is playing in the regional 9-ball tournament. The tourney actually starts Friday night, but I'll miss the first round due to the band gig. Since several of our other better players will be missing Friday night due to other commitments, I suspect we'll be playing in the loser's bracket on Saturday. (We've gone to the finals from there before, so no telling how things will work out.)
Sunday, my BIL and I will be working to remove some juniper shrubs that the city wants taken out, as they're encroaching on the sidewalk at our rental property. The challenge will be to cut the shrubs down without eating up a chainsaw chain on the sidewalk. I'm predicting there will be two sore backs once we're done.
At least the weather should be good for us this weekend...sunny with high temps in the 50s.
