Good Morning!

Take it easy today, Skip. Drink lots of SBUX.

Mike, still keeping your son in prayer. Praying that the infection is gone, and your son will be gone from the hospital today.

I still have cold in my chest. I hate chest colds! Going to the office today under protest. I still have tons to do for year-end.

Have a great day!

Good morning gentlemen.

I'm there too, Mike, in praying for your son's continued improvement.

Another nasty day in Tumwater. But the weather is always fine in my shop. Trying to finish up the cabinet I am making to hold my new lathe. Cut all the finger joints for nine drawers yesterday. I'll glue up the drawers and install the slides today, I hope.

Sorry bunch of football games this weekend and a college championship today that holds zero interest for me. Glad I have woodworking for entertainment.

Good Morning.

Mike, I am also praying for the end of the infection and you some coming home to continue his recovery.

An on & off windy break in some of the rain storms from the Pineapple Express before they ramp up again tomorrow. Our area is just getting mud slides and trees toppling from the wind and saturated ground. It has been several years since rivers north of hear have gone past flood stage. I walked at the mall in the early AM yesterday to stay dry. Might do the same today. Knee is struggling a bit, switching to icing and Tens treatment. But tracking continues to go well and the good days are outnumbering the not so good ones and the scale turned downward this weekend. 0.4 but I will take it since my goal was to at least level off.

Morning. Good luck back at work Skip. Easy does it. Bitter cold here today at dawn -- zero. Going to check the nearby pond ice today to see if safe.

DS maybe coming home tomorrow. They pulled out more staples this morning. Treating it with a "wound-vac" thingamajig. His spirits are good. We have a large family, so no shortage of visitors. Thanks all for your kind thoughts and prayers.
