Wishing I was a black bear and asleep in my den, waiting for the warmth of spring to wake me up, getting tougher each winter to get through this. Football is about all I can say I have to look forward to this weekend, might be busting out an IPA early.

When I get out of work in the morning I am boarding a plane with my son to Ohio. He bought a truck and we are driving it back. Nothing planned for Sunday

Horrible this year. I worked outside all day Saturday. Just brutal.
I have really had it with this winter and will not be here next year. Jeanne wouldn't travel due to Covid but come hell or high water I will be South starting December 1, 2022. |
No boat, back in the suds.

No one is handy enough to convince me that a dip strip service isn't money well spent....

Watch football, golf and tennis and read more history books. Bourbon and Scotch. Clean basement, never ends. Avoid frustration with current state of being a human.

How old a table
The old ones were shellacked, steel wool and denatured alcohol will strip that way better than paint remover

I have to strip a door that was probably built in the 1830’s and it’s loaded with lead paint. you think I should get that dipped? Or for just a door, should I just throw on a respirator and heat gun it?

You blow glass and a little lead concerns you 😊
I’d do it outside with a fan or wind

Speaking of Marblehead... Reading a book called "The Indispensables". Marbleheaders were leading characters up to and during the Revolutionary War. Very good.
