This time it was my back aching and then the old dog that woke me up around 330. This not ideal but surprisingly I feel ok.

So, good morning early risers and diners overseas.

Let me know if you teach this technique. I know I got some sleep last night, but also feel I was lightly awake for most of it.

I wish I could as I would. Sorry you are having problems with sleep.

Wide awake staring at ceiling.... turn to the left turn to the right....fluff pillow repeat

Dropped off in a snap but somewhere around 0330-4 wide awake…did the same toss and fluff routine. No avail so threw in the towel. Was supposed to go home today but company had other plans. Still getting home, just much later…

Hope everyone made it through “the Monday” and now settling in for the week. Will leave a little PNW MZ.

If you do the rest of them right you don’t have to worry about the last one
And we have a backhoe

A large auger is recommended. Vertical holes don't cause suspicion like ditches when viewed from satellites.

Vroom vroom...haha

Super Fred will be capable of all of that.


Hot Rodded Fred will be more capable.


And if Frankenmotor comes, well . . . .

Happy Tuesday. Still have a check to write, an envelope to stuff and drop in the mail, and a resentment not to get. It's called Business, I reckon. There was Uber-Complaint greeting us coming to work yesterday. It seems that the damned plumbers made a mess in a woman's apartment - again - not like this is the first time, either - and she wrote a fucking dissertation complete with a ream of pictures. And she used her thesaurus, too. It made it all the way up the property management chain before 10 AM, so by the time it made it back down the our side chain, Wat had a firm grip on who was where, when they were there, and who was guilty, and of how unsurprised Wat was by the suspects. My boss has decreed the death penalty for the next batch of culprits.


Who says management was/is fun???

Better than Folger's.


My brother used to chew up the army men. Little pieces of plastic were short-lived at our house.


At least models weren't chewable, and they came with great-smelling glue . . . .

What was the name of that glue? Probably explains my tic…smelling that model glue all those years ago!
Smelled like oranges if I remember?

Hello MissK…did you ever drift off?

I gave up. Been on the early shift all week so, I just got up.

The non toxic stuff smelled like oranges. The good stuff smelled like Nirvana.

That’s right! I had forgotten…till you mentioned it…then it all came rushing back!

My best model I made was of the Concorde. It was huge. Almost a foot and half long or bigger if I remember. I made it with the nose cone down and landing gear out. Had it hanging from the ceiling. Got to see them take off and land in Dulles when I was a kid. Due to the big model and seeing them as a kid they looked HUGE!

Was taxiing in at JFK around 25 yrs ago and one was sitting next to a 747. They’re TINY! . Had planned to take a flight on it before they retired them but I drug my heals and never did.

It’s been so long ago, I vaguely remember both. I just know it was heaven building a new model!
