Oh! Speaking of breaks, I still need to run West to the mountains and speed my mother's ashes off the Blue Ridge Parkway. Right now she's in a box up in the spare bedroom. She's not complaining though so I kind of figured I could take my time. Still need to get it done before heading south or it never will get done. 
Matt, you do know that when you are finally finished and all moved - you will then be bored (LOL)... When you get used to being busy every day and it finally slows down - you relax - but if nothing else steps in to take its place - you get bored. A good bored, but still bored. Then you gotta go fishing, camping, walking on the beach, having friends and family over for coffee, going out to dinner, etc. to keep busy...
Hi Kenna, heading to bed here in a few minutes. Had a busy day so hopefully it's right to sleep... ZZZZzzzzzz_!
OMG, prayers being said. {{{hugs}}}
Matt, looks great! Fantastic job. Hope it sells fast, someone is getting a nice house.
Fran, nitey nite.

Your right my friend but, based on future plans, it's going to be a long time before I am going to be bored. Hope so anyway. Busy is pretty good. Keeps my mind off of the knees and breathing and aches and pains and such and such and so on and so on.... Wasn't there a song like that?
Holy cow! 43 more posts in the past 90 minutes that I haven't read yet.
That dual pain glass, Matt, is a pain in the .... and where else?
Y'all ought to be able to view this short funny video regardless of whether or not you have a Facebook account, since it was posted publicly. I don't know if I've put it in this post correctly, though.

What I enjoy is the younger folks that say they wouldn't be caught dead in what we used to wear, but when it comes back with a different name it's great. I was wearing a pair of yoga pants around the house the other day and caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror and went "Hey, hiphugger flares!" And then there's pedal pushers coming back as capris, and so on. (Though, guys, I don't think the leisure suit will ever come back.)
I did like bell bottoms, though. I have always had generous hips (though now pretty much everything except the chest is generous) and long legs, so for me they kind of balanced things out. And tie dye, but I remember dying my own. Kind of lazy batik. My still-in-the-closet garment is a knife pleated plaid maxi skirt. I couldn't get into it now, but I just loved that, and had a lot of fun on most of the occasions when I wore it. Most of my life has been spent in jeans and flannel shirts, though.
It was a beautiful day here as well Mike. However most of my work was indoors. Got the backsplash in the kitchen sealed and the outlets replaced and reinstalled in the walls. To top it all off, Doree found out what went bang in the night last night. The kid was moving the last of her stuff out of her room and apparently didn't close the window properly when she left and the wind blew it open. Broke out of the frame at the top where you release the clips for cleaning. Found it smashed this evening with glass all over the floor. Going to have to take it to the glass shop tomorrow and see if it can be repaired. It's a dual pain low e glass and this model hasn't been, are in 20 years. I don't know what I'm going to do if they can't fix it.
Good luck with getting that repaired Matt. We had to replace 1/2 of a double wooden sliding door. And it was 20+ years old. Thank goodness, the dealer was able to find some new old stock that matched.
Prayers on the way.
Yikes Matt, for a guy that has trouble sleeping you seem to have a lot of energy getting all these projects completed. You're making me look bad - I though you were my friend.
Well at least if you find that old bike you could still fit on it. If I could find my old leisure suit - no way I could fit in it.
We can make it 1984 ..
I love those commercials!
And here I sit. Vaping and reading... I guess I just have a boring life. Just the way I like it.
Always. I'll slow down if you really want me to. Still has to be done, tired or not. Figure if I tire myself out sleep has to come.

Amen to that Ken, done figgered out that most things just ain't worth fussin' or worryin' over, a low key relaxed life is one well worth having.
I wanted a pair of those jeans sooooo bad! But at 5' 9 1/2" I could seldom find any pants long enough, even wearing flats. I was lucky to find any that hit below my ankle. They didn't have women's sizes in talls back then. My mother tells me I'm legs from the shoulders down. They are a little easier to find now, in jeans anyway.
