    • Despite behaving myself really well post-op on the hand . . . apparently I was performing the physical therapy exercises as directed. They never expect anyone to do that and so they over-prescribe. The surgery is healing well but the opening is greater than they like due to the stretching, dexterity, strength exercises. A couple of butterfly bandages and instructions like "don't even scratch your head" for the next couple of weeks . So I sit in the fire-pit area and enjoy the flowering yucca.   We have yellow too but I didn't get any pics . . . I might have had to use my left hand to get out of the chair .  As a result the remodel is done and the dressers are not.  I will endeavor to persevere.
    • @curlyoak - I have a bunch of those.  They are great.  They are my "Ford F-150", "Vaughn Framing Hammer" abrasive.  Solid quality, reliable, long lasting consistent scratch pattern . . . AND . . . they go on sale about once a year at a price good enough for me to buy in a quantity that last until the next sale ;-) To me abrasives are a lot like other 'cutters'.  There is price and there is cost.  Some things I like a 'cheaper version' of.  Sandpaper and saw blades; not so much. 
    • I did the woodwork for my neighbor. The unit on the left is a Weber electric grill. I also am considering one. My neighbor gives it high marks on all counts. I have enjoyed several gas grills by Weber. I want to not carry around 5 gallons of propane. A plug in is my new speed. Thinking about a cedar stand...
    • We use LG washers and dryers too, but only get a couple of years out of them.  With the puppy business and dogs, we do at least 2 or 3 loads a day, so way past normal use.   We're able to write them off though.
    • This varies by product and model. Our LG laundry service has been flawless for 6-7 years now. That said, I dig in deep for cleaning and preventative maintenance. I don’t expect anyone’s front loader to last like the old top loaders. It is too much stress on the spider in consumer models. 10 years is a great run.
