Try the Walmart generics. They're not bad. 

They taste great!   Ever buy those cheap 6 pack cookies at the gas station with one Oreo and one vanilla . Those are pretty good..

Speaking of Oreos, just had an Oreo Mocha Fudge Blizzard at Dairy Queen.  Was delish

I finally had to admit to myself that I needed reading glasses. I couldn't understand why all my car mags were making their fonts smaller and smaller. 

At least the Dollar Tree has cheap reading glasses. Got an extra pair for the modeling desk, too, and they do make a big difference. 

Maybe all this modelling has ruined my eye sight. Or other reasons...?

Tom, my wife uses those glasses. Can I give you a tip? If you are not a regular Glasses Wearer, go back and buy Ten Bucks worth, and just hold onto them. You will find yourself misplacing them and sometimes stepping on them. If you have a few put away, there will be no Drama when something happens late Sunday Night when the stores are closed. (ask me how I know)

Cheers, and Good Luck. Nice to see that the Print has gotten bigger, isn'y it?

Alan, I agree with your advice and learned by watching others -  I bought 4 pairs - one on the bedstand, one on the kitchen table, one on the modeling desk, and one for when I lose one of the pairs. 

 

Thanks!

A little model drivers helmet that always comes in 2 pieces so you have to sand it down after its glued together. This morning I put a stick in it and hand paint it then pop it in a vice to hold until dry. Walked out later and find the whole thing lying on the garage floor broke in half. No idea how it fell out the vice.

Surely you're familiar with the term "Karen" referring to a particular personality type?

They're everywhere.

I am, so what was this supposed to mean?

I think it's pretty self-explanatory.

[Slappylimper]

That people say things and explain it by saying they said it? I simply mean, that's pointless. Maybe your point was to post something pointless? Your logic is, well, unique.

I do so love to be appreciated. I live for it, actually.

No need to explain. The sweater maybe, but not the photo in general. Just coin of the public realm. I was just thinking the next time I was in GA and needed my Nash serviced who to go see. First thing that popped up.

Too bad. I'm not taking on any more customer work. Try to cope with the disappointment.

The golf course behind us is redoing their grounds and has moved the cart path up against our back property line. We don't have much of a yard anyway and before there was a good bit of the rough between our lot and the path with the fairway and green beyond. This worked well as all that was in the background giving both of us a space. Now we're going to have the carts parking at the edge of our yard giving us very little privacy when we use our patio. I had talked to the course engineer a month ago when they first started pushing dirt around, but he wasn't concerned about our privacy in the slightest.

Am I missing something? I tried reading the posts and can't understand what's going on.

 

 

Meanwhile, I had some last minute projects dropped in my lap an hour before quitting time while I am headed for vacation next week. The joys of being on the East Coast and your boss is on the West Coast and has no idea of the 3 hour time difference.
