Good morning!  Soggy start to the morning, but the temps could touch 60 today.  I started taking apart one of my work benches to try and organize it better.....and de-clutter it.  Slow but steady progress.  Ok, where did I put my coffee?

Morning all,

Don't feel bad Mark.  I have two workbenches in the garage is serious need of a deep cleaning and decluttering.  I may start on that tomorrow.  I have a four day weekend coming up.  ;)

Good morning.


Raining here with it forecast to continue throughout the day.  That's OK because I have some work to do in the barn.  I worked outside yesterday and was too tired to model last evening.  I must be getting old...   Hopefully, I'll have some energy for modeling this evening.


Everyone have a safe and productive day!

Good Morning All,

Chores this morning then hopefully train room time. Probably decorating the Christmas tree tonight.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Morning,

Soggy here also.

Breaking News!

I know why my waist sized dropped from 38" to 36"; my jeans slide down below my belly. Seems to be a common issue around here.

Good morning. Our temperatures shot up to 48 degrees overnight and it looks like our snow is going to all melt.  At least enough for me to mulch up the rest of the leaves and keep them from killing the grass this winter.  So it looks like I'm going for a tractor ride.  I hope everyone has a great day.  From the F&SM:

Before I forget (yet again) sending out thoughts, prayers and good wishes for all our friends here with medical procedures whether recovering from them or pending.  Jim, the other Jim, Tom and anyone else I may have missed.

Afternoon all,

Later than normal for me checking in. Had medical test most of the morning.

I'm almost finished with The Pub Crawl second part and will post more updates later this fine day.

Have a great day!

Tom  ;D

A late check in for me, completed my pre-surgery tests and was told 'good news' all looks great so with the Boss at my side and my brothers showing up this evening I guess I will have chaperons to make sure I go through this in the morning.

Looks like a bunch of us going into the barrel at about the same time, so get well wishes to my fellow patients and thank you's to all for rooting for us. I will check back in when able.

Merry Christmas To All

Good evening. Upgrade of my pacemaker went without a hitch except it took two hours to install the third lead to the rear of the bottom right lobe.  Hope everything goes well for the rest of our "cardiac kids."  Jim

Great news, Jim!  Hope everyone else's medical encounters go as smoothly.

I finished my SketchUp model, but of course like any model, it's never really done.  LOTS of hiccups with SketchUp, but I got the primary stuff I wanted to show.  (The texture on the lower part of the outside bottom of the structure shows the existing material.  The white and brown stuff above that are my projections on how the building was composed.  I didn't realize that had a roof until I started researching it.)

Sounds like the whole gang is on the mend. Outstanding!


My big exit strategy went up in smoke today but life is still very very good. I'll do two things this weekend...Get going on these castings that are taunting me and plan my work life for next year (I'm very very fortunate to still be driving even if I would have preferred to pull off the road early  ;D ).

Jim,


Glad to hear all went well with you!  Hope you are able to resume modeling sooner than later!

Great to hear your procedure went well. And best of luck to all those that are going in for a tune up. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
