Prepare for Obama's Muslim "refugees".
Use bacon grease for lube.

In all seriousness, there was an old guy in a shooting club I was in thirty or so years ago that cast his own bullets and mixed bacon grease in the pot. He said it was a good fluxing agent.
I've been loading some hunting rounds on a single stage, but am in the process of setting up another bench in my man-cave for my Dillon 550 to do a lot of .45 ACP.

I'm not sure, but I think getting fluxed is an insult to Islam .

I suppose that bacon grease would work as well as a flux as paraffin, beeswax, or rosin. Ought to smell pretty good, too!
And, I also have about 1500 or so .45ACP begging to be reloaded. Got primers, powder, and bullets, just need to clean off the bench and get on it. (sigh)
How come I'm retired and STILL don't have enough time to get things done?

Because you are LIVING instead of sitting around waiting to die.

Time to... kick off.

There's a difference between "retired" and "retreaded."
And another factor is the amount of time it takes us geezers to actually DO things. We tend to care about those tasks we undertake and take the time to do them correctly. Add to that the fact that we just aren't as fast as we were some years back, and you have an ever increasing time deficit.
Another complicating factor is the time it takes us to remember what we actually wanted to do at any given time coupled with a short attention span. You know, we go for a cuppa, see some envelopes on the counter, realize they are bills, don't remember if we paid them, light up the computer to check the "bills paid" page at the bank website, see that we have mail, check Downrange as long as we are on line, get po'd at something Bogan says, go the Drudge to see if he was right, get outraged that he IS right, get angrier when you see something the Dummycraps are doing now..., etc. Pretty soon the coffee is cold and the morning is gone and nothig substantial has been accomplished.
Personally, I have set as my goal to accomplish one task of significance in any 24-hour period. Some days, it's only taking a shower. But, dammit, I get it done.

Oh quitchyer bitchn'.
You've been storing up errands and chores for 40+ yarns, it's to take TIME to get through them.
If your "Honey do " list was started on parchment you aren't going to finish it this week. LOL
