Not fancy but better than the store and cheaper too!
Baseboard for the bathroom. I could not find any in the store that I liked. The price was too high and the molding was too cheap so I am in the process of making it. Not fancy but it will look nice when it is in.
It is my lucky day. On my daily morning bike ride I found a Klein electrical screw driver. I think it is worth at least $3.00! It was on the road and had not been run over so it is like new. How lucky can one get???
We picked the first of the cherry tomatoes yesterday. The plant looks like a huge bush and all the fruit was green BUT when one looked inside there were about 15 ripe tomatoes. They taste delicious. Now I should transplant it to be right by the path to the shop so I could pick some on the way there and on the way back. The raspberries are about done so I can not pick them.
This old age thing is getting kind of old! I knew I had trim paint left but I looked high and low yesterday and could not find it. I mean I have at least 20 different containers of paint but the trim, there was none. This morning it dawned on me that in June, when I painted last, there were tiny bits of stuff in the paint so I strained it and put it in a different container. I went out into the shop this morning and there was my container of paint right in front of my eyes but the label read concrete mix! Oh, I almost forgot to mention that I also looked and looked for the primer and finally found it in the quart container instead of the gallon I was looking for. Like I said, this getting old stuff is old. My saving grace is that brother Dave mentioned also that there are times he looks for things and can not find them. So if an accomplished woodworker and craftsman has that problem I guess I will not complain.
I continue to write my "to do list" each day and I am actually getting better at being realistic. Yesterday was not the best day but most days have been fairly good.
I have a Dr. appt this morning as I would like to find out if this lack of energy is normal or if there is something wrong in my system. Yesterday I was so exhausted that I took a nap. Now with all the projects to do a nap should not be on my to do list. But what can I say, not much.
My breakfast is finished, my bike ride is finished, my FP is finished so it means it is time to work.
