Damn! Seems to have taken forever!

All good, I hope.

Not today, but tomorrow, my son has a job interview. He wants to keep his present job, but not enough hours for him to sustain his needs right now.

An additional source of income would help a lot!

I hope he gets it.

I've been goofing with this thing since last spring and I think I finally got it going well.

I took the garage door opener from our old house and altered some things to make a rock polishing tumbler.
It's really quiet compared to some rock tumblers I've looked into. It will still live outside!

I've only had it going for a couple of days and I just used play sand to clean up some promising looking specimens.
I used a large PVC pipe with adapters for screw on ends and a rubber roller around the contact edge. I will have two gallons of media and maybe four or five pounds of rocks per attempt.

Beautiful, so far!

I don't really have a frame of reference for these things, but he's okay now. Apparently one of his hips is still weaker than the other, but not to the point the doctor keeps needing to see it. I'm supposed to keep doing exercises at home with him, but we haven't been able to do them regularly, it's too hard and always an argument with him.

Not sure there is such a thing as a timeline.

I'm over a year in on this broken wrist shit and it's still not right yet. I am assuming that it will never be OK again.

My third trip with broken ribs as well and all seems fine, until I breathe deeply. Worse when I sneeze. Coughing is more controllable.

When I was recovering from hip replacement, they switched me from stabilizing the new hip with weights to building strength in both symmetrically after about three months. That went fine at first, until the pain caused me to cheat some.
My pain caused me to object fiercely to every movement back then.

Forcing through pain is an adulting thing. Kids will have trouble even trying it..

Confirmed that I have tickets to the Indy Car Grand Prix this year.

It's not the Indianapolis 500, but it's the same cars, running a road course on the infield track.

I'll get back to the 500 eventually!
