    I just had an implant done in early December Andy. So far so good. The wife's is about 6 year old. I incurred the gross national debt over the years between caps, crowns, fixed bridges, root canals and the implant. I wondered why my dentist was always on vacation to some exotic island.

    Good morning everyone! Not much planned today. Working on fixing some nail pops in the house - 1st sanding today. I hope your wife is feeling better today - tooth and back pain truly suck.

    Stay safe!

    I hate to paint. Prep work is better than 50% of the job, at least to me it is. I only use high quality paints, brushes, rollers and roller frames it makes the job easier. If I have to tape I use Frog yellow tape, there is less glue residue. It has become harder for me to work on a ladder so I taught my son how to cut in the wall to the ceiling. I will still roll the walls if my son will let me. LOL

    Mark you will say a lot of money by doing it yourself. Down here it cost close to $1,000 a room to have it painted by a contractor. Doing it yourself save you over $800 a room.

    A little something every chance we get.
    So organized! I think here the State just hid it in several places around the state, and said "go find it"! I'm in no hurry to jump in front of the essential folks, but I asked my local Walgreens pharmacy about their plans last week, and they "said they had NO idea - no one has contacted them about distributing anything!"

    Hope your wife feels better Ken. My wife has to use that rinse all the time. I'll stick with my too many fillings.....

    Garage work was positively illuminating yesterday!

    If I put up a door, will there be a new room behind it?

    Well, completely unrelated, but I wanted to say I really like that style of bumper in your build photo!
    I have a somewhat similar one waiting to install in my garage. Just waiting for the courage o_O.
