Back Off or Off The Back
I spent all morning cruising new blogs about sailing and boats in general that I found by hitting *NEXT BLOG* at the top of the blog page. YES, they were all in English. Blogger must have made a change somewhere and only put blogs similar to mine. I found this from Lu's blog and found a whole bunch of women and babies blogs (go figure). After I got three in a row in English I knew something had changed in THE *NEXT BLOG* ZONE. Went back to my blog and YES YES, blogs about boats and travelers, all in English. I like this change!!! I found that after numerous next blog hits, they might start to veer off subject, like boat blog to canoe blog, to kayak and then change to hiking etc, etc. So all you have to do is go back to your blog and start over.
My back has bothered me for the last day or so (wonder why?) and my plan for the day was to take the morning off, rest, eat a 800 mg Ibuprofen at lunch and get to work. Well, I went up, cut one 12 ft furring strip freehand on the table saw and it fit great, so great that I decided to take the rest of the day off too. That makes sense doesn't it? I might wait, on the wood splitter plan this weekend too.
Be better to back off the back a bit before breakage.

Let's Smoke
A day filled with smoke was a good day indeed!
I think I'll see if they have a splitter available today, it's another beautiful crisp day here on the hill.

Attic Update
We hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving Day. I actually didn't do anything in the attic yesterday but I did get all the firewood cut and ready to rent a splitter.
With no money paying jobs at hand I've been spending my time working on the attic. It has to happen any way because last Christmas Bicky and I gutted this whole space figuring I'd have plenty of time to rebuild and insulate. Of course that means I'd wait till the last minute so I'd be forced to get it done. Instead of planning a new layout of bedrooms, bathroom and game room I decided to open the whole space as one large room so if we had to sell next week there would be a *wow* factor of stepping through the door and seeing such a huge space, the potential buyer could think "Wow this is huge, we could make this into....bla bla....
I'll more than likely do a little bit of electical work for a few outlets and some lighting but only just enough for use as it is. Working at my pace it will no doubt be a few more weeks before I call it enough done.
