I used to have problems with my mailman, but he retired. The more we complained, the worse it got. Our mail would be opened, magazines read, mixed with the neighbors mail daily. Put it this way, I think he would have been a good argument for keeping weed illegal.

Our mailman used to throw the mail down the steps, rather than place it

in our mailbox. The Richmond postmaster defended this workers conduct,

for which I can't help feeling I would have been fired for cause...

So yeah, I'm on board with USPS's rather steep slide in service.

Hey all!

Finally back in the shop after a horrific week of distractions. Kids out of school the day before thanksgiving; traveling back & forth; trip to the ER for my wife and mother-in-law to get stitched up after crashing in the 4x4 mule; taking care of the kids after getting the wife to sit the F down to recover; and last but not least, my great aunt just passes at 100. Ugh.

So, I'm about a week to week 1/2 behind schedule on EVERYTHING!! I'll be busting ass all this week to catch up and get everything out the door. I HATE being behind!!! I apologize up front for any delay. Hope you guys @ gals can understand. I could probably use a few prayers for sanity and quick hands this week, if you're the praying sort. I know I'll be saying a few!

Thanks again for all your support FTF!! You guys and gals are the best!

Sounds like it already took a little divine intervention to make it through all that. Sorry to hear about your aunt.

Wow Dave, sounds like a rough week all around. No hurry, take your time. I hope the wife and MIL are OK and my thoughts are with you on your Aunt. She made to 100 though, that's a pretty good run. My mom always threatens me that she is going to live to be at 100. Take care of yourself and family. Sometimes after a holiday, I feel like I need to go back to work and rest.

Thank you guys! Love having a second family here to vent & lean on once in a while!!

Getting back to working is exactly what I need to settle the nerves and put my head back on straight. Worrying about being behind on top of the family ordeals puts me in a serious funk.

Taking 5 now and have already cut 4 holsters out this morn and will have them all tooled and dyed before 11. My goal is to have 8 done and prepped for sewing before I head out late this afternoon to my condo remodeling job.

Just take your time!! We're not going any where!. Sometimes you have to think about yourself first.

[Mosin]

We're with you longballer! Even if you do live in a cave! Take your time! We'd rather see more quality work that you're known for, than a rush job, because you feel pressured.

Okay okay, just don't mess up mine! That's what I meant.
