Not much done, in a while.

.

I feel good.  No terrible hurts, no aches or pains, not a headache this week.  I haven't been too hot or too cold.  Though, truth told, I'm not sure I would notice.  There is a certain condition that just seems to be outside of these things and more.  A disconnection to all, with all, external and even many internal affairs and events. {pic stolen from AoSHQ}
There are times when that is so potent I can't see, remember, feel, or know... or even not know.  Accidental transcendentalism, as I have called it.  It hasn't been around for a while, or to this depth and length for even longer.  And, yet, it isn't all consuming this time.  I suspect, with the heart in better condition, I don't just disappear down that particular rabbit hole.  I get to stay near the exit... entrance?  I can see out, I am in, I can almost pay attention... or really I do, if and when I do.  Ever watched a cat, sitting there looking at you, yet really not there?  You touch the animal and she jumps?  Not always, but sometimes.  That is how it is, or can be.

Ghosts are still here.  I don't think the girls can see them.  I've never seen them look.  They can sense them though, in different ways.  And they avoid me, even staying out of the room when the activity is heaviest.  They don't seem terribly perturbed, mostly.  It seems more as if they just don't like whatever is present.  Ghosts?  Spirits?  A mix I would say.  It is much off from the heavier times.  The activity fell to a... recent midlevel, then became a bit more sporadic, and has become those as a usual.  There is always the possibility that health has failed more than it seems, and these are just problems with low oxygen.  So I have been checking blood oxygen level, at least with the tools I can afford at home.  When I check it, it seems to be in the 95%~97%.  That... shouldn't be a problem.  Hmm, I'll check when activity is up.  Yeah... even for my own things?  I am a doubting Thomas.  What can I say.

Oh, about kreg pocket jigs?  Rather than just like, or not, I decided to do more thinking.  As if by chance, I stumbled upon a video that compares various connections.  Now, in absolute measures, the pocket jig is less, and far less, powerful of a connection than the others.  Is that much strength always needed?  No.  But when it is, it definitely needs to be considered.  There are reasons for the kreg.  Namely speed.  Now, you can make a jig yourself.  One that is just as fast or faster.  But it would require some decent shop chops itself, and would probably be limited to one width of wood.  Still, just... thinking.  I know if I decide to make cabinetry for the shop and kitchen, I will probably go with a kreg.  Just the number, the speed, the ease.  It is expensive, but comparing buying even cheap store-bought, plus installation (though even without), and the tool covers itself.  More so when time is money.  Oh, and the woodworker in this vid?  He does some crazy stuff.  Well, like his force scale.  He is a serious wood and mechanics nerd.  Yeah, I'm a bit jealous.  I just... I might end up trying some of what he does, but... yeah... no way I could do a lot of that.

Oh, I'll... try to figure out how to get out of the transcended state.  Meanwhile, the list hasn't changed.  Nothing has been done, mostly, and I am still technically functional.  I'll... see about things.  Later.
