    I can tell you that shingles on your face is the most pain that can exist. BTDT.

    Jen gets shingles outbreaks on the bottom right corner of her eye all the time. Any time there is extended periods of stress she gets a breakout. Dangerous there because it can cause blindness.

    image.jpg Got the oil finish on the deck before the wood migration started. This stuff is going to take forever to dry! The column wraps are assembled just need to install caulk and touch up paint.

    Can't like that. It's a stress induced thing. I've been doing everything I can to reduce stress. Hopefully your wife can too.

    No bundles sold at our sons wood bin yet. A bigger sign will be made.

    Started early re-stacking the tipped over cords. Definitely wet ground and the briers interlaced the rows. One went over pulling part of the row next to it. I made some PT shims and propped up the leaning racks.

    Before...

    Mid point break... I'm sure I burnt all those calories off.

    After...

    I ended up dumping a cartload of part punky spruce that soaked up rain. No more saving that stuff. Startled two grown fawns that were laying behind the dump pile. Mom was behind me across the path grunting.

    I am starting a project in the basement. I framed out a wall that was painted concrete. I installed two outlets, ran the wiring, sheeted with OSB, primed and painted it. In the same room, I ran two more outlets and then sheeted that wall, primed and painted. Just over 5 sheets in that room.

    Then, in the room where the NC-30 is going to rest, I threw up 2 more sheets. Then, on the other side of the masonry chimney, I framed out a complete wall from center beam to the floor with a RSO for a 3' door. This wall was close enough to 8' also.

    I have one more wall of just over 6' to frame and then sheet.

    Over all this sheeting in the stove room, I'm going to use some rough sawn white cedar that was from local trees. I picked it all up today, better than 250' board feet total.

    Yes, I am taking pics.

    No, I don't know where my connecting wire from phone to laptop is to load them up. "In a box somewhere"........it'll show up someday.

    Its probably 3+ times a year. She can identify when its flaring up now and takes the meds to mitigate it. Thankfully, its not the debilitating pain for her at least.

    Really? That's awesome, I was not aware of any meds to help the pain my mother, MIL, and FIL that even touched how painful it was, and theirs are not recurring!
