Unforgiven

Today I've been tasked with meeting with the principal survivors of my recently deceased BIL. The agenda is to label what tools were ours and what were his so they can decide who gets what. When we retired, he and I each stored some of the tool of the trade. We had duplicate nail guns that we used all of the time but many were unique guns that we only had one of. We had multiple sanders, routers, drills, and the like, but also had unique electrical tools. The bottom line is, our company purchased most everything we used to earn a living. Many of the items would only be of use to a trim carpenter. Lots of the everyday sort of desirable tools I do not want and will never use again. It's not going to be fun sorting out the tools and it bothers me that it has to happen so quickly after my partner's passing.

I hope that either way the tools go to someone that respects what they are and cares about the craft they are meant for.

Sad to hear but glad he has moved on to a better place.

FWIW, got a call early this morning from a long time friend who I do not keep in touch with like I should be doing.

Another of our group passed on last nite ... yup cancer. Awhile back they gave him 6 months and his time expired.

This is the second time that I only managed to charge one hearing aid overnight. I must have been in a hurry both times. No matter the reason, just one hearing aid is more awkward to wear than no hearing aids. Fortunately, they charge fast, so I sit and wait.

Yeah I do that one so many times, one of them is always like sixty percent, the other one is at zero.

For what it is worth and those who need a wipe out clean.

Before doing anything when copy and pasting to a new device, use the cable and connect to the devices,the wifi requires an "okay google set up my device"

Has a strange moto 771 on it, I said oh clover it over with mac and cheese on it, toss it into the garbage, I factoy reseted it again and I did connect both devices with my cable, that was I began early in the morning since I had my mother's party last night, took me most of the morning up until afternoon..

Keep that in mind if you have two devices, do not do the Samsung switch thing,that is complicated english for anyone to understand!

The "I'm so old" thread game

olbriar
Jacks, marbles, jump ropes, and tops were THE toys for girls and boys when I was a kid. We had to improvise to go beyond the norm. We had a 55 gallon drum that was sealed on both ends that we would walk around the yard or try to knock/walk each other off of. We also had an inflated tractor tube that was our trampoline. A favorite of the boys was a pair of boxing gloves. I'm talking a left glove and a right glove. We'd square off, each with a glove, and when a kid got knocked down, we would trade gloves and fight again.
