Morning all,

Sorry, I don't have breakfast out.

Just checking in to say surgery was finally completed at 1:45 PM Wednesday and not at the scheduled 9AM. Apparently the surgeon was called to assist another surgeon with a difficult surgery. Never heard if the other person is okay.

I feel like I've been kicked in the left side by a mule. 

Time for another pill. Have a safe and happy day everyone.

Good morning everyone.

23 now, partly cloudy with a high of 39 later.

Hope no one has Paraskevidekatriaphobia.

Coffee, sodas and OJ are ready.
Two eggs the way you like them, crispy bacon and/or sausage links and home fries for breakfast today.

ACLTom, good to hear from you and very happy that your surgery went well.
Hope the pain lessen greatly in the next few days.

I have a kidney stone follow up appointment with the urologist early this morning and keeping my post brief today.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Have a great day everyone.

Good Morning All,

Thanks for opening Tom. Great to see you posting. Take it easy until you're healed.

Today for breakfast is coffee, cereal, bagels, yogurt, OJ, and soda.

Yesterday was a bust with the clevices. Yes the reamers work but I mangled 2 of the clevices using them. I'm embarrassed to say that it seems to be beyond my ham handedness. I called Brett and he will send me some 3d printed ones. I just think about all the modlers that made it work. :-*

I decided while waiting to spray gray primer on the 3d printed details and will continue with them until complete.

Nothing much else happening this way.

Rick hope the appointment goes well.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Welcome back, Tom!  Rick, good luck with your follow-up!

Cleaners come this morning.  Once they're done (including cleaning up the little mess I made with my 1-1 project on the stairs yesterday), I'll head down to the train room and maybe work on a second resin gondola kit.

Freezing cold in mid Michigan today. 

Curt, it took me half a day to put coupler boxes together for a coal hopper the other day.  Numb, fumbly, uncoordinated, drop it over and over...PITA :o .  I can share, if not feel, your 'pain' keep at it. >:(  I need to lube the desk chair, it screams :-X every time I roll back and bend over to pick up something. 

Few plans here, yet.  Wife thought there was something in the garage in the night,  :o exam this am saw nothing.

Dinner plans with friends tentative for later.  Mmm nope, no going to. Staying home, eat some kibble or something. OK by me I have severe CHS in restaurants ( Can't Hear S***) get tired of grinning and nodding.

Enjoy the day all, be well. 

Bench and layout my get some attention.

Bob, have a good one.

Terry, that sounds like a great idea!

Rick, thanks for breakfast.  Good luck with the doctor.  No fear!

Curt, good luck with the clevices.  

Jerry, good luck at the eye doctor.

Philip, have a good one.

Dave, have fun with the gon.

Karl, be careful in the garage, thar be dragons!

How goes the rest of the crew?

It's a bright but cool morning, warming to 65F later.  Tonight, a hard freeze is in the forecast.  Yikes, we are all gonna die!

I'm upstairs, but don't know what I am in the mood to work on.

Have fun,
mike

Good morning everyone,

Thanks for the coffee and breakfast Rick, hope the clinic visit goes well.

Tom, glad your home and recovering.

Curt, Brett has to be one of the most helpful manufacturers out there.

Karl, hope your dinned plan works out and you have a great time.

Current weather is currently 3c (37f) with the sun shining in the sky.  No modeling last night as I ended up watching the hockey game and then going to bed.  We shall see what today brings.

Have a great day everyone.
