When people finish the mega Lego kits, do most put them on display in a special display room, or do they go back into the box to be built another day?

My Costco replaced all of their shopping carts this morning.
As I walked through the store, it was as if I were wearing big earmuffs.

You don't realize how much noise old ones make until they are gone.

I have not been to a concert in years.
But when seeing a photo of one where many are holding up their phones, I think I would not want to attend one because all those nearby devices would distract me from the performance.

Like yelling "SQUIRREL" at a dog

Even though we no longer have COVID shortages, I am still keeping an above-average stock of essentials like cookies, coffee & toilet paper.

Perhaps I should start digging for my bunker.

First time using compo for antique frame repair:
- Making the usual beginner mistakes
- The odor from the heated animal hide is challenging
- I may try to learn how to cook my own

With the supplies purchased, It's NOT a money-making hobby.
Silicone molding putty, compo, gesso, and paint to color match.
I'm not ready to try gold leaf yet.

Life's hardest left turns never leave your heart.

To prevent fading, I usually keep the shades closed in the morning.
But the chilly weather made me open them for some extra heat.

Almost everything you ate last week was probably handled/processed by someone not born in the USA.

Tell that to your uncle next time he complains about illegal aliens.

I love an excellent grave marker.

Have you ever noticed how you try to control odd things in your life while other things are crazy?

My microwave is always clean.
