    I build Tiara’s,and Pursuit’s. It amazes me how many people can afford these things. We build the bigger Pursuit’s $500’000, and the Tiara’s,$800,000,to 2.5 mil. Must be nice.

    Morning all
    Feel much better this morning

    It really depends on the project. If you have a lot of hands and no access to machinery or it's a trail project, it's all about shovel time.
    At least you arent shoveling wet snow on the roof.

    Yeah I tried that years ago, lived near West Palm,boat yard was in Lantana. I just could not deal with south FLA. To hot, to long, those palmetto bugs, and way to expensive.

    I've always liked the smaller Pursuits. Strong, solid hulls.
    Almost bought an '89 22 ft Cuddy, but I couldn't walk away from the deal I got on the Sea Ox.

    Just got done taking the outside Christmas lights and decorations down.
    I have those lit up deer that were staked into the ground. With the ground thawed out this morning, the window was open before the ground re-freezes later.

    Happy to hear you are feeling better Mike. Haven't gotten a flu shot this year... yet.

    Good morning. Up to -10* now and supposed to get up to 4 above today. Up into the teens tomorrow, and more snow of course. Followed by a couple of days with highs in the below zeros again.

    Regional effectiveness varies but nationwide it is about 30%. Covering Fl. Mn. and Az. we kind of average out to nationwide average. Although have people coming here from all over the world so get all types of strange and exotic stuff, ugh.

    H3N2 is the main strain this year and it is a nasty one. Even if the flu shot doesn't cover H3N2 hopefully it will cover the other variants that often set in after you get it. Can be quite the nasty train ride once the body is weakened. Your right people complain the flu shot doesn't work and don't realize how much it actually does even when they do get sick, not a job that has a lot of gratification from positive feedback from others. Sounds like a lot of jobs the more I think about...

    Nice job Susan and smart! I only use excel because I have to and watch some people make it sing and dance. Me I just do what I have to and google anything more complex on the web. A lot of what I do is that. Someone somewhere has already done what I need to do and is damn proud of it. And has posted it some place on the internet. I can and will find it, why reinvent the wheel?!

    One of my sisters called me last night and ended up talking for 2.5 hours don't know the last time I talked on the phone that long before. She is in Buffalo and think by the time she hung up we decided we are getting a place together in Western North Carolina in a few years. But her grandkids are in Buffalo, so probably not.

    At the hospital with Mom. She is sleeping. Never exercised, never smoked, never drank, terrible diet her whole life, always overweight. And here she is at 92.5 years.

    Amazing what the body is capable of.

    She told me she wanted to see what 100 is like.
