Doing Stuff

Restarted putting wood trim of floors down in front rooms. The stuff is really expensive and since I am trimming the whole house I put it off until I got a few more dollars. I am putting down baseboard as well as ΒΌ round trim in front of the baseboard so the floor really melts into the wall and looks whole. That is also why I picked up the new miter saw, which works great for getting the 45 degree angles in the corners. The trim may end up costing as much as the floor!
Started cutting and forgot a dust mask to cover my face when sawing the wood. I had forgotten how sick not wearing a mask while cutting the floors made me earlier in the year when I was sawing wood like crazy (put flooring in entire house) without a mask. Really took me down for over a month and slowed me down for longer than that. I was unable to run, work out or anything for a long while and was taking medication for a few months for that. So tomorrow I will pick up some dust masks and continue my sawing
I also picked first tomato of the year from my garden.

Sunday Tossed Salad Day

Depleted baseboard materials from local Home Depot and then did stuff around the house and hit the pool! Had a nice dinner later, weeding the garden and some nice mellow music with feet in the pool and some wine.

Old Friends

Went to a get together today and met up with some old neighborhood friends that I have not seen in a long while in a matter of fact had not seen some since we were kids.
Good to see people doing well and living right makes me feel good that people I know and hung out with when I was younger are productive in the community

Strange Day

Could not get my laptop to login from home. As a matter of fact all I could do was login, then it just sat there. Went into the office to let them run OS rescue disk for XP. Doesn’t tell you what it fixes but it works. I didn’t have my backup system ready at home because I have been reloading and moving systems around without setting them back to their previous configurations.
Had a nice long late work-out that just ended. Now listening to some mellow music to relax and drinking juice with ice since I’m out of Gatorade.
What a nice night cool breeze and a crescent moon.

Piddling around Sunday

Today did the normal Saturday things I didn’t do yesterday because I was going from store to store yesterday. Things like mowing the lawn, laundry, cleaned the pool etc…
I tried to find a method to keep the wood trim pieces against the wall while I fastened the pieces of the trim against the wall.
Was surprised again…. lol …. the past comes back? Not sure what to do just yet.

Getting On Top of Projects

I have purchased a compound Miter saw today @ Sears so I can finish my wood trim for my floors. The Miter saw will help me properly cut for the angles in the corners.
Also had surprise for me at the door after right after I finished assembling my saw and was about to do some practice cuts.
Maybe I will elaborate on the surprise at a later date.
