Not the type in casing, just free ground pork and flavoring. I am getting better at cooking eggs. I prefer overeasy or omelets. I simply don't have the right tools for omelets. Yet. Two eggs and a few small patties, no toast, and I was out of coffee so went with water. Just enough.
My days and nights are getting messed up again. It's just the way it goes. I'll try to track what I want to do, like finishing the faucet installation tomorrow, and figuring out what pieces I need to tackled the undersink plumbing while I am at it. I don't need all new, just a few pieces that are longer, or some sort of odd gap coverage between the main metal drain line and the pvc perhaps. I suspect, after putting the faucet in, I'll do a lot of work right then, just figuring out what exactly the problem is. Irritating if I am sure it is fixable.
It looks like I have a lot of projects coming up, and a number of trips. I am going to have to holler at the old friend to see what is up with his world. I hadn't thought I'd be going to Burning Man, and he might not have the time or money or inclination. But if he does, this would be the year to go. He's a nerd (too, in my opinion). But he has come a long way. Actually, most of my friends are, mostly, of that sort. Almost frustrates me when they don't see me that way. I suppose there is a sort of difference. But the notion is sound. Ah, perhaps that it isn't as much of a limit? Then again, I'm not half as good at tech either. More a tinkerer, when I can, than an official or professional tech type.
I am working on upgrading my skills. Tools are being laid in, learning is happening, mostly just on the practical side... if slowly. I have put in my first ever toilet, water heater, reverse osmosis, and a few other things, and just in the last few years. I have learned to patch drywall. I have learned how to install various products, and make them fit and work. Oh, the faucet too, and having to fight that tooth and nail to include improvising tools. I did find the set of screwdrivers I thought would work. The big one wasn't big enough. Which means another trip to the hardware store... oh dang. :)
It does take me a long time to get going, to get to any particular thing, and such. A little pressure can help a great deal. Doing things for myself is hit or miss. I have a house to clean, then a bathroom to put together, and then a kitchen floor to redo, along with some cabinetry work. Money is always a bit of an issue, but less so these days. Big projects and trips drain the treasury though. But that keeps me kicking if I had to guess, or helps. Later, or perhaps good night.
