    Same story for me. I shoveled snow 3 times this week and today it will have to be done twice. So 4 times this week and it's windy so probably again in the morning too. Went to the travel agent today. Florida sounds good for about a week.

    I fixed a loose poster frame with painter’s tape (which I always have in my archery bag.)

    I got to use a wire-cutter, pliers, caliper & drill, all before 7 AM. I built a thread stand for my sewing machine, out of a wood block & a wire hanger.

    To explain, thread can be bought on oversized spools called thread cones. They are more economical, but don’t fit on a lot of home sewing machines. The thread stand enables you to use them in spite of this.
    Just for fun, I painted it.

    Started replacing the fan pulley bracket in my Toyota Sequoia. This is a real fiddly PITA job to do. The part takes about 20 min to swap and about three hours worth of taking stuff off the truck.

    This old bird is 2003! I would really hate to have to tackle a much newer one.

    I let my wife sleep, after she woke me up at 3 am, with her constant snoring. She isnt feeling well, and she needed the sleep. Coffee, and news time, for me.

    I like beer and wine, but beer after work, wine sometimes with dinner when we go out. Not too sensible to keep around the house since the wife isn't drinking anymore.
