I am able to walk downstairs just starting today! Major accomplishment. One foot each step. Yea!
Was sitting here looking for words when my son walked in the door...all the way from California. Decided to post class tonight so I don’t sleep too late tomorrow and forget.

No, off of an active job order for a little bit until things get very, very busy again the 2nd week in September at the power plants.
So I’m up reading, writin’ and arithmatic’ing. I’m a moderator on a couple of engineering site, and on a climate science web site, but even that leaves some free time.
St Ronnie has me stripping, staining, and re-finishing the kitchen cabinets, re-building the back stairs tot he deck, and (just finished) did some woodwork for her classroom science tables.
