Re: winter projects

Hi Lois

Sounds like just the thing to work on on a cold winter day. And a little fire to keep you warm, too. <g>

Re: 1989 S1600 White Rhino

Sometimes the body calls "Time Out" and you have to go with it. Try not to tie knots, just accept the call cuz that's all you can do anyway and be cool with whatever comes. We does the best we can and at some point bashing ourselves about it is just tiresome and worthless. If you want to w...

Re: winter projects

Still rewiring the house, build out the laundry room, recopper the other house... that'll take care of a few months! And the niece wants to open some kind of business when she gets back from the Gulf in the spring - assuming she decides to go non-active. She's talking opening a bar/grill, but she's ...

Re: The Swiss Army Knife of Apartments..

Jeeze Lois,

I had no idea you were in the very heart of nature land - you practically live on a boat! <g> By the time you get across all that water you might as well shop the USA!

Re: 1989 S1600 White Rhino

Ach! Do what the Doc says and get right back at him if things don't get better real quick. IOW, don't try to be a Man Of Steel - BUG those medical guys, ask what might work better, ask what other tests, ask what more could be done, etc; if they say "call if", then call right off, don't let...

Re: Photos From This Year's Bedford New Zealand Rally

Well, he was an interesting energetic guy. But it's hard to be moving all your marbles around... I'm glad he's didn't quit doing his chronicles.

Re: 1989 S1600 White Rhino

Now I get it. Don't know what you have for a mattress, but my first thought is - don't split you mattress lengthwise if you can avoid it. 2nd thought is if you have to split it lengthwise, you need to have some surface that is one piece across the split and connected (glued?) to each side of the mat...
