Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

You will need it for deck boards. Just butt them up tight

 

I guess I would have never thought of doing something like that. Even more frustrating would be if that was done by someone I paid for work like that.

 

Thats a safety hazard.

 

What in the name of Raymond DeWalt is that mess.

I sure hope that isn't something you own.

 

Not mine, lol.

 

Same with me. I can pretty much sleep anywhere.

You got me there. I don't remember the last time I had a dream. It's been years.

Now that I have a smart watch that tracks my sleep I've been going to bed and getting up at more consistent times. Even on the weekends where I would usually stay up entirely too late and sleep in, I've been in bed at 10:00 and up before 6:00 without an alarm.

I started lifting weights again this weekend so everything hurts and I'm worn out when I'm done so I'm sure that's played into being tired and going to bed earlier that usual, too.

 

I’m at the point where it doesn’t bother me anymore. If I’m tired the next day, I’m more likely to sleep better that night. It all equals out.

Works for me but then again I’m not operating machinery or welding stuff…

BTW, it’s called mid-cycle awakening. It’s normal and there’s all sorts of strategies to try out to help mitigate. Here’s one hit from Johns Hopkins:

Wouldn’t that just pool up water?

 

No, because the PT lumber shrinks when dry even if its out on a deck. It basically water logged with chemicals and moisture when you get the lumber from store.

 

“It's those dreams that a communist dictator took over the country that get me.”
Ask me, the living witness of that tragedy!

New poll idea- replace the old worn out rainbow pickup in this thread’s header and replace it with a corgi pic

 

On the subject of porches, I’ve had an unwanted visitor. Just when I thought I closed in the ceiling in time.
Too open I guess. Let’s try this,

and if that doesn’t work, this;

 

Smells law suit!

 

But, did you shut it out or shut it in?

 

Yes.

 

Bet you can't tell when my wife came to bed, woke me up and I couldn't fall back asleep for a while...

 

Start with option number 2. You can always de-escalate later.
