We made it to Friday again Folks! 

 

 Not sure what I'll be doing, I'm trying to figure out what the Roller Coaster weather is going to allow this weekend here "Two Weeks From Anywhere". 

 

What's on Your Weekend Agenda?

Lew edit and repost to see if it works

Have my last scheduled PT session  in just a bit this morning.  Then it's off to the (big) city to install shelving that is mostly cut to size and finished.  Back Saturday evening.  Start the next round of projects in the Sunday-Monday timeframe...

Well that was a good plan... before I got the last sentence typed in our son called to say he might visit in mid-March during spring break from his studies... can we build a special dog feeding chair that week? Don't know, never seen one... pics to come

At least that doesn't change the plans for the immediate future.

If my shop furnace gets fixed today (still waiting for parts) I have a backup of things to do. If it's not fixed I'll just suffer in silence in front of the TV.

 

This just in: about an hour after I typed the above the furnace guy called. He's been out and installed the new board and I have heat again in the shop.

Kind of foggy outside this morning.....have not been informed of today's  Schedule...yet..

 

Still looking for a car.

Still have some auction items to unload, sort, peruse. A couple night stands go to my daughters for grandsons

 

Domestic duties today, along with some phone business. Tomorrow, birthday party at the church for our former church secretary. She'll be 90 but you would never guess she's not 70. Amazing, sweet lady. Church responsibilities Sunday. 

About to go for PT and maybe take my driver (SWMBO) to lunch. Got a couple small things done in shop yesterday. One was a extended tool tray on end of the lathe to reduce some clutter. Hope to do some turning today and tomorrow. Back to church for the first time in 3 weeks Sunday.

 

My son got a couple of nice glass cases from a remodel at Academy Sports and they are still in my truck so maybe next week.

Mimi just said- "I have a thought"...  DANGER Will Robinson!!!  Run Away!!!

@Grandpadave52 ditto

Working on my second week recouping. Want to get back in the shop but listening those that know what is best for me so I can get there.  It'll come soon enough I'm told.

Still in prayers...and yes, listen to those who know. Better to wait now than to relapse.

I used to like Spam. Makes a good sandwich.

One of the granddaughters is getting confirmed at Easter.   Made her a box from some curly maple.  Applied a few coats of finish and will add a few more.

Gorgeous piece of wood!

Cameron is coming over for more lathe time. he's now at the point where he's doing everything on his own although he still needs to improve on sanding skills a bit. 
I'll be getting the ringmaster lathe out to make a few bowls. I need 3 done in time to get photos for show applications due on March 1st. After that there is a few more cutting boards to glue up and 310 cheese slicers to finish processing. this should keep me busy enough to stay out of my wife's hair while she does our taxes.

That's cool John. Soon you can put him on the "payroll." Glad all is going well.

 

310 is a lot of cheese slicers but hey, since you're in Wisconsin, guess it stands to reason. Good luck on the taxes and oh yeah, staying out of the Mrs. hair.

I made 5 cheese slicers a couple of years back for me and some family members. That wasn't bad...but 310 would be. That would keep me out of Marie's hair the rest of the year!
