*Shrugs* As good as any other barn of its size, I guess. I might post a picture of it to show you.
I've been looking back over these past few months, and I've felt off. Felt different. At the time, I wanted nothing more than to go back to the good old days.
But now? Could I just ignore all the ways I've suffered and grown? Caught hold and let go? Could I return from life, having now lived?

Okay, sounds good. I've made a bedside table/shelves thingamajig, a working clock, heaps of strange boxes, countless chopping boards and tons of other, random stuff. I quite enjoy working with wood.
    I have a shiny thing! See?


And also some random, unnecessary coding.[/li][/list]<br /><br />

Long live the RRR!

How did you make a working clock?
As in, would it require special tooling to make the pieces?

Our local clock shop guy made the mechanical bit and I just had to put it together and install it into my clock body, then adjust anything that needed it. Pretty simple, really.

I suppose so. I think the best part of wood working is the smell just after its been finished with linseed oil and twerps.

These homeschool threads are great.
Something funny: Once my brother was a party thing with a friend of his and another kid (who went to school) said to him "Homeschool sucks." My brother replied "Yeah, it really sucks going to the skate park in the middle of the day."!
(Note: this only happens if we have finished our schoolwork by midday, which does happen frequently.) ;D
Infant Ebby is a smol, out-of-control firebending terror. It's a good thing she's also quite cute.

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
And rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Which brother was that? The small cooking one or the slightly less small one?

Ah yes. He can be amusing at times. Whenever I think of him, I get the mental image of him tap dancing. That child is made of springs.

He has them in the soles of his feet. (not actually, it just appears as though he does)

I know. It's amusing and somewhat adorable.
