I’m so bad… for every book I read, I buy at least one other. Only by rounding to the nearest percentage point can I keep the ratio constant :-)

How I did it: Duh... Just get on with things (and write this much because 43things won't take less...)Duh... Just get on with things (and write this much because 43things won't take less...)Duh...

A year ago I remodeled kitchen. All the old cabinets ended up in my shop. I installed the pantries and some other base cabinets on one wall a couple of months after. Then I hemmed and hawed about the sink cabinent. The challenge was the location of the waste water/sewage pipe vs where I wanted the sink. I finally built a false wall, which gives me more space for hanging stuff or shelves, and plumbed the sink in.
I ended up using all the cabinets except one, which I was forced to re-cycle.
Now I have to finish putting wallboard up on the ceiling (it will reflect the light down better), and then I can get back to fixing up my brother’s old table saw and building things.
I’ve always said I can’t do this because my beard is thin. But once I let things go, it’s actually not so bad. There’s no threat of a Mountain Man/Prophet level of growth, but there’s enough to work with.
The big question is, what should it look like in the end? The beard on my cheeks is so thin that I just shave them. I shave a little on my lower neck, but the rest is free to grow. I’d like to have things fairly long, and perhaps give into the temptation to braid things ;-)
