it's a bandsaw fixing, knife sharpening kind of day.

Good weekend.

Fixed the cruise control in the Suburban, taught Son #3 how to change out his brake lights, taught Son #2 how to clean his battery posts, fixed the license plate light on MomHawk's car that had popped out of its holders, patched a small leak in the roof over our breakfast area without having to climb a ladder (went through the bedroom window), rehung a light fixture we took down to check the leak, built a Lego x-wing fighter, attended a recital at the music school where Son #2 is Operations Director, and got to see him jam in an impromptu Sax ensemble, replaced our sprinkler controller, and now I think I'll just relax before dinner.

I'm flicking between San Francisco and Oakland and season 7 of bosch on Amazon prime. Got a coffee and a pack of Newport's as well. Could it get any better?

so be sure to check locally before assuming they take it.

I talked with those friends tonight and they looked at me like I had 2 heads when I brought this up. Apparently its not a thing, but I swear I remember someone telling me about it...YMMV
