What made you feel good today?

This snippet is essentially how hundreds of thousands were taught - myself included. The only power tools being a corded drill and planer.

The expectation was, you should be able to hang eight doors in a day, excluding architraving. That includes cutting and assembling the jambs, packing and fixing them squarely into the opening (whether brick or wood), fitting and hanging the door, and fitting the lockset. If a door was slightly warped or twisted, you humoured it - not threw away. Clearance at the top was set with a pair of 20¢ coins.

Initial thoughts were lol..... then realised this young Lady & her instrument have been amusing me of late... her Western covers anyway.
People in glass houses...

Took the day off work and got through quite a bit of the work in the garden in this nice weather

Deffinately not the worst problem to have. But weekdays ever since my son got his big fish tank, from 3pm to 10pm its machine gun messages of everything tropical freshwater fish, and tank related stuff. Weekends its 7am to midnight, with usually a window. This weekend there was a 3 hour window yesterday, and im almost at the end of a 3 hour window today. Thats because he's at work.
As a parent im very happy that a fish tank is what he is into. Way better then ice or herogroin that where he lives others are really into, and the improper ways people go about 'supporting' that.
Man, he is a good young fellow.

When picking up a pallet of wine today (NO, I don't drink) I saw these cute little fluffies. That made me feel good today.

Crap quality.. shot through the windscreen of the truck... at 4 O'clock, so glare was an issue, but you get the idea.

Dude, that reminds me of a story an irish blokes mrs told me. She accidentally ran over a few ducklings crossing the road. But a few doors down she knew the people. So put the mother duck and remaining ducklings in their front yard behind the fence. When asked how they were going, well the was answer was not an answer but an explanation as to why so many feathers were in the front yard. The people whose front yard got the duck and ducklings dropped into had a couple pet german shepards. Must have been like kfc for lunch for them.

Haven't been in a good headspace recently. Been trying to see it through, but went and saw the GP today, who put some plans into action. Didn't walk out feeling top of the world, but there was suddenly a feeling that things were going to get better.
