      End of a week off. Work on master bath today and hopefully be able to install all the cabinets tomorrow. All they need is final sand and spray laquer.

      Have to run the mower tomorrow...Yard sale Sat/Sun.

      Plan to get some shop time during the sale.

          Wife'll be at home mowing 8 acres of lawn, planting a 10 acre garden and spreading about 8 tons of manure on one of the fields while I'm 450 miles away at work (again). I like work!

            Tear off the incorrect fascia on my garage and put up the right stuff and gutters.
            Finish (hopefully) my new portable BT3 station (read frankensaw).
            Clean up garage/shop.
            Finish sheeting ceiling in garage/shop.
            Get car running and truck stereo working for trip next weekend (800 miles with no tunes...never again).
            Go to work on Sunday and clean up my office of paperwork.
            All this while keeping 4 yr old daughter entertained for 2 of 3 days while LOML goes to work.

              watch the baby on Saturday, spend the day just playing with her.

              Sunday, take Samantha to see Julia down in Columbia, and hopefully this time, I won't get rear-ended like the last time I took Samantha to see her.

                      Headin' to the Expo 2006 Show. The East Coast Sawmill and Logging Equipment show at RIR this weekend. Sure, I can't afford a WoodMizer, but one can dream!

                      And more importantly, maybe one can meet a local sawyer/dryer!

                        it's a holiday weekend in canada but since i'm retired every weekend is a long weekend! i started power washing the cedar boards on our sun deck today - got half of it done and will finish that tomorrow. then, it's on to the sidewalks. i'm always amazed at how much muck accumulates on the concrete and wood over the winter. sure looks nice and clean when i'm finished though.

                        also have to cut the lawns out front and back, weed-wack and stuff. also hope to get some shop time to finally put together the mission nightstand i'm in the middle of building. this project seems to be taking forever and i don't know why - just is. all the pieces are cut now, and the dadoes, mortise & tenons etc., so i just have to start assembling, sanding and finishing.

                        should be another busy weekend.

                          I am moving our daughter out our house into the house she just bought. She has been living with us for about a year because her husband (now ex) left her after she had knee surgery, and couldn't hardly walk with crutches couldn't work, and had no income.

                            Helo maintenance and a few mods as a result of the first flight test. Going to HD with my birthday gift card and getting a new blade for the CMS and some oak for the next project. Cutting the grass will also fit into there somewhere.

                                Well now lets see, I'm taking LOML to the Casino for Dinner and Gambling Saturday evening after she gets off work.

                                Sunday MORE packing! We've got two weeks till the house closes, then all H*ll breaks loose!
                                Sandy is taking a week's vacation beginning the 31st and we'll use the time to get everything moved to the new house.

                                Because of the Stroke I had on Feb 25th, I'll hire most of the heavy lifting done by other younger and stronger guys. I'm getting better, but still tire very quickly when doing anything of a manual nature.

                                So far I've moved 4 16' X 8' trailer loads to Miami, Oklahoma and stuffed it in Storage Lockers. Most of my Tools and most of Sandy's Sewing stuff has been moved up there and is just sitting in the Storage Lockers.

                                Looks like I'll FINALLY have a permanent Home for all my Tools! YIPEEE!
