You have little a Hero there. Take time to acknowledge his small accomplishment.
Small to us - giant concession from him.

Pizza? Cake? Something unexpected? Celebrate!

Such training is full time work. You know it. Set aside the grout for now.
Make this day about his victory!
 :thumbup:

He works nights so he crashed shortly afterward.  :lol1: I cleaned all the grout except for the boy's room since he was sleeping. I'll finish that part in the morning. I still haven't decided if I'm going to wash the cars, but I have decided I'm not doing it today. I just washed them last week so they're not really dirty. The problem is, I don't want car washing week to be the same week as big grocery shopping, because big grocery shopping day usually kicks my butt. If I don't wash them this week, then they'll probaby be dirty by next week and I'll feel like I have to do them. Maybe I'll just give them a quick once over tomorrow and skip the wax.  :dunno:

This morning I finished cleaning the grout, and I tore apart the robovac and cleaned the filters and brushes. I also packed a lunch for Sugarbutt and now I'm alone and not sure what to do. I have the guest room set up with a long term project I've been chipping away in small bits whenever I have the emotional fortitude to work on it. Maybe I'll spend some time in there today.  :dunno:

Noonish, it was already hot, I took my Chevelle out for a spin.
First time in a year, almost.

GOD! What a beasty girl she is! Sassy!

Just playing on a lonely stretch of road, this baby doll can start off in third gear and burn rubber!
Now, understand, I like my expensive rubber so that was a one time thing. Just playing, first time we've kissed in a while.

But it was so much fun getting her out again!!
All I have done for almost a year is polish her. Well dink around under the dash fixing the A/C vent stuff.

I need to get me some cheap throw away tires just for the fun of it.
 :lol1:

I won't.

We have that coming up soon.

My son has had his changed last year, but my wife's and mine are three years old. Kind of bad.

She has like laser eyes from previous laser surgery. She sees perfect, except up close. Old person syndrome.

I have not had eye surgery, but I have a feeling they will suggest it again for me. I have always refused.
I have 20/10 vision still (from twenty feet away), but I also can not focus within two feet or so. (old person) So trifocals with no lines for me - expensive!

Soon.

Husband drove me down so that I could put in a new faucet down at my son's house.

Still no vehicle.

Ton of shit either half assed or not done down there. My husband does some weird shit with his ADHD sometimes...but some of that is becoming disturbing anymore.

Duct tape and zip ties don't fix everything.

I did my weekly chores and picked up a couple of things at the dollar tree. Everything is clean and stocked, ready for what may come in the next week. :hadron:

Well, I made me a Kumiko Stratocaster style guitar!

NOPE!! Just kidding.

This is for real though. A youngster with skills, did the Kumiko work and epoxy filled the frame, then built a fine sounding guitar.
Restores my hopes for the future of hand crafting.

Spent most of the day cleaning out a basement and talking to my wife's uncle who is most defiantly on the spectrum and is one of the smartest people I have ever known

Not sure if that was intentional or not, but made me grin. :laugh:
