What a great project. Do you have help (assuming you need 1 person). Is it less expensive than buying a pre-made shed or are you looking for specific design that you need to build in yourself?

Im retired so nothing has changed for me. I have so many ongoing projects that some days I dont have time to play my guitar. Two others just sit in their cases.

Still working. There ain’t enough hours in the day.

But this is a sad Easter for me because the same group of friends here have gotten together for our shared Easter meal for 25 years. Because we’re under stay-at-home, and I’m in the high-risk group, we have had to postpone til whenever.

Hours and hours of intimacy with my wife.

I have to stop with the hallucinogens.

My small company is considered essential, so we all are coming to work as normal. We cannot work from home, so I drive to and from work every weekday. I only get weekends off.

I'm bored. I was doing pretty good but today I finished several projects and now I'm in need of stuff to do. I finished a couple of sculptures. Now I'm out of material. I got back into cross picking and flat picking so I reworked some songs I do for that. I'm kind of proud that I can now do songs in different keys and transpose on the fly. Just experimenting to see what keys I like best for each tune. I've been riding my new bicycle when the weather cooperates. The up coming week isn't looking real favorable. I have my car cleaned already. I started on straightening up the grounds around my tree. It's a oak tree that is a public monument to peace. Only it's on our property that's across the street from a park. I watched the yard maintenance people clean our grounds after the last winter. They finished the grounds around my tree also. So that projects gone now also. I think I'll hit the trails and walk the woods in a park up the road in the Loess hills. But right now I'm in real need of more stuff to keep me busy.

I am working, my job doesn't allow me to self quarantine. Unfortunately I have to come into contact with many people throughout the day and have to travel about 2000 miles a week I try to stay protected. But I have to say every time I start to have a cough or a dry throat I think to myself shoot I'm not liking being so exposed like this. I am hoping that my dedication to my employer is not going to come back and cost me. I was going to retire two weeks ago but was asked if I would please stay on through these tough times.
