Progress

The farmer is making progress on the wood shop. Since this picture was taken, he has all the boards in the pile up on the ceiling and walls. The electrician hooked up the wiring this week, so once the heater is installed, it will be warm and cozy for winter. There is a tool sale Friday in Bismarck. He has done hours of planning to choose the best combination for function and price.

I am excited for the future. Once the shop is done, the first furniture project will be new end tables for the living room. It is like quilting with wood. You are only limited by your imagination and budget.

Today is a clinic day. One never knows what will walk through the door. On Monday, our PA, Jody, was giving a tour of the clinic to two other PAs who might come work during her vacation time in January. She told them how pleasant we are to work with. It was nice to hear that our group stands out as respectful and friendly. Seems like those are qualities one should learn by first grade. I feel sorry for workplaces where people yell at each other, or dislike one another. I have often thought I would do the same work even if I didn't get paid. Just don't tell my bosses!
