Sun and 40s in Michigan today.

"All done" is not in my vocabulary, Rick.

Felicitations to all the B'days in Badger Land.

1:1 a chance today. We'll see.

Heard on another forum that Atlas bought Micro-Train in the N scale world. Bought up all the assets to move elsewhere and one post said current employees were told to pack up, clean out their desks and you're done.

That is it for now.

Jerry, that soup sounds wonderful.

Ron, oops, then good luck receiving the RDC.

Karl, hope your day went well.

Dave, how was the concert?

Dave B, we have Cheerios today.

Philip, hope the trip to Fort Knox went well.

How is the rest of the gang?

Planning on continuing work on the oil well today.  I made a lot of progress on the various wheels yesterday.  Today, I hope to get to the NBWs for them.

Have fun,

Good morning Larry, Curt, TomO, Rick, Karl, Mike and the rest of the crew that drops in later.

Thanks for the coffee and breakfast Larry, hope the Honey-do list is a short one.

Curt, hope you get the instructions figured out today.

TomO, hope Terry's appointment goes well.

Rick, safe travels

Karl, I heard about Atlas buying Micro-trains too.

Mike, have fun working on the oil well today.

Freezing rain here with the current temperature at 0c (32f), it's a good day to work from home.  I already dropped the Mrs car off at the garage to get a tune-up and the winter tires put on.  I have to take a couple of online safety courses today to keep my credentials up to date.  After all that I think I'll work on the backdrop or the boxcars, or maybe both, we shall see how it goes.

Have a great day everyone.

ACL1504

Morning all,

Well, I'm back after a week off. I started out with a head cold. No fever and the chills only lasted a few hours. The past week I was just to dang tired to do anything. I stayed off the forum and pretty much stayed in the house for five days.

I got a doctor app. and was told I was border line anemic and needed more iron in my system and more rest. He asked me what my activities were on a normal day. He also advised I was probably burning the candle at both ends and to get more sleep and rest. I told him it was hard building a railroad empire.

I don't have sleep apnea but my sleep is connected to my anemia and visa versa. I don't sleep well due to low iron in the blood. He gave me a B-12 shot and now I feel much better.

So, I'll ease back into modeling. In the mean time, Pam has a very bad head cold and I just got her back from the doctor. When it rains, it pours, or so they say.

Hobby on.

Tom

Morning everyone

Larry thanks for the coffee & breakfast.
Watch out for the honey-to-list!!

Rick great video.  Thanks for sharing with us.
Yes seems everything is going up in price.

Karl go easy on the 1:1 projects.

Mike looking for the update.

Ron you have choices today skip work and work on the cars!!

Tom hope you fell better after the shot.  B-12 works wonders for people that are anemic.

Weather in South Jersey is cloudy going to 54 today.
The soup Diane made was delicious!!

Hopefully the honey-do-list is coming to and end.
I haven't had a good day at the bench in a week.  Always something that needs to be done.

Everyone have a great day!!  :)

Tom, you just need to eat more nails  ;D   Seriously, getting a diagnosis like that is more than half the problem, anemia is pretty easy to resolve, I think.  Were you getting night sweats?

Dave,

No, no night sweats, just "Tossin and Turnin all night" as Bobby Lewis sings.
