I want to applaud the sticktoitivness related by individuals in these pages. Life is hard, but one can make it if they apply themselves.

Thank you JJ, for illustrating the reality of many people's situation up here.
It is indeed what you put into it.

Yes I do know you and I know you are about as FAR from a slacker as one can get.

No, but I have a pile for trash, a pile for recycle, a pile for Goodwill, a pile for K to go through (stuff I am not sure WHAT it is or if it needs to be kept) and the layout bench and workbench that take up 90% of the back wall are accessible and organized. I've got a place for my three bags of good wool (still looking for a spinning wheel and no, I don't have one lost in the garage somewhere! ) and today -- after lunch and after I: sand and prime the next hex sign that has been ordered, work on half a dozen ads for the book project and get them placed in the publication and check to see what edits or new content I have been given for the body of the book, I will attack the pile of boxes and totes in the remaining back corner.

A 64 page book with a deadline of November 14 -- that I only started getting real content for this week -- kinda puts a brake on the amount of time I have to work on the garage... but it's some good $$.

And yes, Austin, I know you were kidding... wanna come throw some primer on a hex blank for me?
