    When we moved my kid into his dorm the first time I used my campus master key to let myself in while he was parking his car. He didn't even have his key yet. :laugh:

    Boats all fixed up and shifting the right direction now. Smoking cleared up with some run time.

    Now comes the hard part... the wife and I had a long talk this weekend and decided it's time for me to change my schedule at work. Going for the 4 day work week. I'm sure management won't be thrilled, but they never are haha :fingerscrossed:

    I worked 4 ten hour days for years...

    It sounded good on the surface. o_O

    My "normal" day started at about 5:15 am, if everything was working perfectly (yeah, right) I was leaving about 5:15 pm.

    Usually it was closer to 6, 7, or 8 -- whenever I was done, so my normal started out at 48 hours minimum.

    Production would often work 1/2 day Friday, so that would add 6 or 8 hours.
    :bananadead:

    Besides beating myself into the ground the problem was getting any kind of business done after 2:30 on a Friday afternoon. :annoyed:

    Hopefully it's the right move for me. I know what were doing now isn't. One of those.. time will tell things I suppose

    Well fellers, sometimes you have to spend some money to improve. :(

    Meet my new organization friend, made by Brother "by your side".

    KIMG4133.jpg

    Here is the model.
    I opted for an AC adapter, it runs on batteries too and a case to keep it nice.

    KIMG4134.jpg

    And just a little progress. :playball:

    The production people seemed ok with it for the most part -- "production worker" and "happy" usually aren't ever used in the same sentence. ;)

    Of course they worked regular hours too -- me not so much... :ballchain:

    I know we’re only internet friends but if there’s anything any of us can do, let us know. Even if it’s just moral support, we’re here for you :fistbump:

    I had one at work and labeled all kinds of stuff.
    This is the first time ever I have devoted time to real organization in my personal life... :anonymous:
