A new tool

I have new tool. It didn't come from Tool & Drool or even from Sears and Sawbuck. In fact, I made it from a piece of plywood and a nail. Take a piece of plywood about six inches long and a half inch wide. Drive a small nail through it leaving the head of the nail about 1/4 inch from the wood and the point protruding through the wood.
To use it, hang a picture from the head of the nail and hold it against the wall. When the "boss" agrees that the picture is in the right place, push the nail into the wallboard and remove the picture.

You now have a mark at the exact spot where the nail for the picture should go.

My thanks to HGTV

Second 39th

Well, I have had my second 39th birthday and I feel great. I remember that Dad was in a lot worse shape at this age; probably because he sat down to die at 75. He lasted till 87 but I don't think he really enjoyed it. I can assure you I do.
I am enjoying eleven grandchildren and making sawdust and have lots of friends at the hospital and the retirement gang.

Stop by and enjoy it with us.
