Wait!  Where's the pictures?  They're supposed to be right here!  I swear, you can't find decent help these days...

Friday!

Just wear red and show your patriotism, okay? Don’t make me come over there and add black and blue to your palette today!

OK, so I’m not as stiff and sore as I was yesterday, but this metal splinter in the tip of my right middle finger sure makes typing harder than it was. If only I had a super-powerful magnet that would just pull the splinter out, instead of having to dig around in there trying to get it…

As promised, some “before” and “after” shots for you:

Also showing are a couple of the young men from church helping out with the cleanup.

Since it is Good Friday, TMBWitW is off work and we are going to spend the day together – as soon as she wakes up. MEG has been up and down a few times, and my sleep schedule is so whacked it’s not even funny. Tonight I’ll be driving a twelve hour shift – if anything amusing comes up, I will let you know.

Chat ya later…

    You do good work (in case nobody ever told you before).

    Hammer – thanks – I finally got it out using “New Skin” which is a kind of glue for cuts, and when it cured I peeled it off and the splinter (which I couldn’t grab with the tweezers and couldn’t get a good enough purchase on to cut out with the carpenter’s scalpel) came right out.

    Richard – I appreciate your comment. Some people have mentioned it, but it’s always good to know others see the results, too. 🙂

    BTW, my most sincere of apologies! I didn’t get your package off until yesterday; work has been frantic and, well, no excuses. But you should receive it soon!

    BZ – no worries! I figured you were kinda busy, don’t fret and certainly no need to apologize for helping me out.

    Hey Cary!

    Thanks for stopping by and I ALWAYS wear read, even when it’s not Friday. (wink!)

    Windows look good and thanks for the heads-up on the Bing West article.

    Hiya, Samantha –

    Thanks for stopping in, and for the kind words.

    The Bing West article is pretty much the only MSM article I’ve seen that mentions the DPSA; the only other mention I’ve seen was on Murtha’s own website. Of course, he doesn’t allow comments on his site…
