Charlie Self Moved Back Home - and I'm happy for him.

Been a lot of trollish shit associated with Charlie's name - I just
wanted to start a thread that was positive.


I'm glad to see the man back home, where he belongs and feels natural.


These pissants ain't no nevermind. They don't know him.



I'm looking forward to his posts from Home.




Regards,
Tom.

After all, he wears a white suit. Mark Twain got away with it, but for the past
50 years it's been the symbol of the Good Humor Man.

It is great to be back, even though the associated work is more than I
wanted--and we paid guys to do the heavy lifting! Ya get old and fat you want
someone else to sling the ice box around.

Actually, we didn't pay them all. Some teenagers from a local church helped a
lot, as did family and friends. This end was a lot less costly, even though
some local pick-up labor thought $14 an hour was a fair wage for unloading a
truck (sure is far, for a good carpenter around here).

So the next couple of months will be spent straightening the shop, painting the
walls (did the ceiling about 4 years ago), painting the floor (it's varicolored
right now, between dark green (terrible for photography, but it sure lets you
know where the excess sawdust is--plus every other speck), setting up
machinery, building a wood rack, getting ready to add a foyer to the house,
getting ready to add 4' to the bedrom end of the house, and onward. Biggest
deal is clearing out a section of the old storage shed so I can move my loads
of air dried oak and cherry indoors. I want to do that this weekend, but it
depends on the local dump and how much they'll accept at one time. I think it's
1000 pounds before the bills start. With an S10 pick-up, that's 2 FULL loads.

And, did I mention, working full time? I plan to kick back to about 65 hours a
week soon, though.

Thanks, guys.

Not really much. Left WV and moved back to VA. Time to get back with family and
friends, and regain my 1200 sf shop.

a) Congrats! Always good to be home.
b) a Smidge confused (albeit normal) - did you move *back* to the same
house/spot? The "painting the shop" comment made me think so...

Yup. The place we made the mistake of leaving 2-1/2 years go for my venture in
corporate--I was going to write "life" but that's not what it is. Something for
which words fail me.
