Well, I thought I'd just share a bit of good fortune with you all since that is a rarity for me. I was at a family reunion this past weekend when I'm sitting with my grandfather talking about a flea market he visited that had mediocre wooden furniture for outrageous prices. So, I say "One day I'd like to get into building things like bookcases or a rack for all our dvd's and stuff but, I can't really afford to right now." So my grandfather says, "where would you keep all your tools?" I say, "My garage." He say's, "So you'd turn your garage into a wood shop?" I say, "Yeah." Then he says, "When's your birthday?" I tell him and he says, "You've got yourself a wood shop. Come by my house with your truck and I'll give you all you need to have yourself a nice wood shop." And we shook hands. I WAS STUNNED!!!!! My grandfather owns all kinds of stuff and he's just going to give it to me!!!! I said, "Oh my gosh! Thanks. I don't know what to say. I'm speechless." My grandmother who's sitting next to my grandfather says, "Honey, you don't have to say anything. We love you."
I love my grandparents!!! And now I can do stuff I've always wanted to do. I'll start with the DVD rack, then I was thinking of making some racks for my gear and a Quadratic Residue Diffusor and some night stands for the master bedroom. Man, I can't wait to pick up all that hardware!! Grandparents ROCK!!!
Well, thanks for letting me brag a bit.
