I walked into my shop today, but just to grab some tools to work on the dehumidifier.
I'm fixin' a hole where the rain gets in..........cuz I'm built for a kilt!

Tease.

I opened the shed yesterday, cleared the cobwebs, got the stool down that was sitting on the RD (yes, I did say sitting on the RD :sad: :sad: :sad:), dusted it down, and took it up to the house as my daughter needed it for a dye stand whilst she turned a friend into a bimbo with an orange stripe...

I am in such a state of limbo... I have not even touched any of my writing for over two months...

Anyone recommend a good therapist...? :sad:

I try and pick up the Jazz every day to keep the fingers working though...

I'm playing with the band every Monday night and teaching several other nights, so the shop is on hold right now.  Playing routinely is a lot of fun right now!

Might throw the LP together in a quickie moment when the parts arrive.

Still in my shop, unfinished and unmolested!  It will get some attention this spring.  Really, seriously……..I mean it this time.  :P

Well, you did say it was your summer project. Of course, that was back in 2009.  :)

Damn, what's a few years among friends!  In fact,  all of the hard work on it has been done.  Just needs finishing and hardware.  Geez, have I been out of it, or what??

You have been out of it and you've been through a lot. But with your illness in the rear view mirror, you'll be out of excuses if you don't get it finished this year!

... er... no particular summer was confirmed... ;)

It's nice to know that this one didn't go bye-the-bye, and here's me, the King of the Projects...! ;D

I hear ya Kenny.  I've had so much going on the last 4 years, it's a wonder I know up from down!  Now that I have my spray unit rigged up, I'll start some finishing this spring when it isn't 6 degrees outside.

Feel free to set a good example for me.  I have too many projects parked....including the need to re-install the head and manifolds on my 280ZXT.

It's great to be here!  Yesterday was the 2 year anniversary of my cancer surgery!!!  It's gone by so quickly and I'm feeling great.  Good medicine, docs and blessings have been with me all this time.  I am sooooooo blessed!
