Very nice.

Today is lazy for me as well. Next week is when the grind will start but it should still be good as long as I dont run into any problems.

I was glad to go back to work this morning. I was eyeball deep in plaster dust all weekend. I was trying to run electricity in a room with 100 year old concrete plaster and laths on a log wall. I had to use a diamond wheel in the grinder to cut through the wall before I chipped a hole into the log to make room for the boxes. I drilled a hole down the log to the floor height and a hole at floor height into the wall to intersect so I could pass wire. I cut a slot along the floor and tucked the wire behind the baseboard. This project has been a thorn in my side. I have a spot of water damage from the old roof on the ceiling that I need to cut out and replaster and then it's up to the wife to repaint.

Oh come on Cory, it really hasn't been "winter" this year.
It's actually been pretty nice outside, I think I have only seen negative temps on the thermometer a couple times this year. Nothing colder than -15 either, last couple years we had 7-10 days straight of -20's to -30's at least three times during the winter.

Gimme 20 degrees and a foot of snow please. It can stay until the 10th of April too.

Sorry Cory. It is Wisconsin. I like to visit florida too but I don't wanna live there either.

Well its hard to find a place that is perfect. But I do all my own automotive work so the weather is hampering that and that is why I want it to warm up.
