Bad Day at Block Rock - errrr - Make it Bad Year.

[teg]

My dog didn't want to go out to pee right before bed... that's fine, but then wakes me up at 3am needing to go out and pee... that's NOT fine.

I hear you load and clear with Windows 10... I don't plan to switch to it.

If I ever get another computer I think it will be an apple.

If it was one of the mutts that would not be too bad. When its me every hour or less that is worse.

More aggravation & frustration. Was fighting with an old 15 foot 2x4, when new it was real good. Part of some old rafters that I salvaged several years ago. It is very heavy & rotten on 1 end. Piece of ply I want to use is too small. could scab a hunk on it but do not want to. Next pay day will buy another one. Talking to my friend on PH, incoming call, they hang up before I can hang up. It's the VA, Tell the fellow that if Dr is too lazy or busy to sign paper for chair & brace, assign me a different Dr. Tell him not to change message or sugar coat it. Another call VA again. Says chair & brace can be picked up any time. Go to VA ahead of DR visit & have x-ray & tests done. already had x-ray & same tests done. Lady to mail me some forms to fill out to change DR.. Dr will discuss pain pills on the 6th of December. Just keep hurting for another 5 weeks.

Ken has spoken for the books will get them in the mail after the 19 of Dec. Will add in some dremel parts at that time. If you want to see the books let him know. Many of the things shown are made from commercial parts. I did 1 sand casting in gold & set with a nice green Turk. Made a lot of things similar without commercial parts.

Don't want to run out of beer & smokes before next payday. Bout time to go out light heater & have a beer.

More later,
Jim

Windows 10 is working okay for me, has some new things, sometimes when an update is done, things change. I try and stay reasonably current on home computers and it helps when I use the same at work. I've been on Win10 at work for awhile so updated personal computers to Win10 also... I need to take time to clean things up and remove duplication from keeping files from each computer over the years..

Once you go Mac it's hard to go back! My company supplies me a windows laptop. I pay for my own Macbook to use. Now it is creating a problem with our IT department not wanting to support both platforms as we get bigger. I am the lone hold out... don't know how long I can because they need to put security crap and company applications to access certain things. Crap.

Here are some pictures.

Now guess what I will build with them.

Flag just a few Months old.

Now some pictures of the mess in progress. I move the mess around just so I can do it over again.

North wall at start. Last years plastic seal.

North Wall.There is some slightly more progress now. Hope to put a window in some day.

West wall window.

Some small shelves. More will be put up.

Be careful going in & out. :laughing:

Yesterday was another good & bad day. May post about it later.

Some almost firm decisions. Plan on indoor carpet on deck. Sort of a desert color, only 1/4" deep.
Want to add a 3" cap on the upper part of the ramp. Seal it & hope it lasts longer than I do. Have fixed the ramp several times. Every few years have to do it again.

Slats keep falling out of bed. Yesterday some at the head fell out. Not the first time. Want to move antique bed in, will need a mattress, Temp have some foam. Its a little low, may do something to make it higher. Need to do a lot of things first, will not be right away.

5:40 am 29 degrees. Might be a little cold. What you think.

More later

29 degrees? That's swimming weather!! I am no fan of anything below about 45, hence why I live in Louisiana.

Looks like your set for seasoning your cooking from your stock on the shelves. Just wondering what kind of flavor the wood glue and 3 in 1 oil gives? Just having fun. Your looks organized - mine is not. Wishing you the best for the holidays.

PS: I have a small bottle of Gorilla Glue in my kitchen cabinet in the corner. Its the only place I can remember where I put it as I see it about every day.:confused3::laughing:

I had this issue for a bit, I screwed the slats to the frame. No more issue. If the frame is metal, drill some holes and bolt it. It doesn't take much to keep it in place.

As long as the wood glue and ketchup aren't mixed up on a hot dog, life should be okay. Talk about constipation.
