    Continued Remodeling, No Kings, and Outside Cats – Thoughts from October 19, 2025 – Part 2

    This is part two of my article from October 19, but you know that from reading the title. When I was last blathering on about Patti’s kitchen remodel, I talked about nature’s body glue.

    Upper Cabinets, Corner Cabinets, and Nature’s Body Glue – Thoughts from October 19, 2025 – Part 1

    Believe it or don’t, I didn’t finish talking about the kitchen yesterday. Patti and I put up most of the upper cabinets with no problems. There was one time in the beginning when I tried to put one cabinet up on my own. About the time I could barely hold one cabinet up, I realized…

    Kitchen Remodeling, Potential Problems, and Little Time – Thoughts from October 18, 2025

    It’s been so long since I wrote a Thoughts paper, I don’t remember what I was talking about the last time so I might repeat myself. The biggest event in Patti and my life recently has been the kitchen remodel. For Patti’s birthday, one of her gifts was going to be the kitchen remodel. I…

    Kitchen Remodel, New Tools, and Outside Cats – Thoughts from August 23, 2025

    I had my appointment to check on my throat after my surgery to remove the polyp on my vocal cord. I knew it didn’t feel like it used to years ago. Seeing the image the doctor took with the camera down my throat was disappointing. The polyp was smaller than the last image before the…

    Senior Birthdays, Cats, and Alcohol – Thoughts from July 2, 2025

    This is the day of my birth. I’m 55 years old today. In many places, I can now get a senior discount. Patti and I are both seniors. I’m not normally off on Wednesdays, but I took off this birthday Wednesday. As with every time I got to choose what to do for my birthday,…
