Nothing like a little bit of good humor. Thanks.


If you want to do something, you will find a way.
If you don't, you will find an excuse.

It's been said, the road to nowhere is paved with good intentions.

Also, it's the thought that counts. Doesn't really matter if you do it or not.

Ah, yeah, right. Duh...

I had good intentions. I also had the energy. I had the time. However, it didn't happen. Yet, I got nowhere.

There is a reason. Today is our anniversary. I decided it would be better to spend time with my spouse. After all, today, it's official. We've been married for 50 years. Yeah. Half a century. Lol.

Sounds really long when I put it that way.

It's been a good day.

I do plan on working tomorrow. Have a good one.

Congratulations on the anniversary! Some things in life are so much more important than an old RV project. Have a good time!

I think we should also be honoring the wife of 50 years. Using this project as an example this has to be a very strong and forgiving Lady. Congratulations

What makes you think I am the lucky one? Maybe she is the lucky one! Lol. Yea, just kidding. I tell every one, she got the short end of the stick, and I married up.

Everyone has their moments, I don't care who it is.

In some ways it doesn't seem that long.

Absolutely. We try to have a good time on a daily basis. If you can't find humor, make it!

Well, I finally blew it up.

Wasn't trying to.

But it happened.

I was in the middle of testing the strength of 2 different items, when the one gave up the ghost sooner than I thought, and when it did, pieces started to fly that weren't supposed to.

As a result, my scale is now broken.

That's the thing about electronics. The screens don't take very much abuse. One good punch to the face, and it's all over. The left side of the screen still has a little display, but the rest is history.

Another one is on the way, so I can finish the test and post the results, hopefully, within a few days.
