Chipped away at my mother in-law’s coffee scoop today and I’m happy with how it is coming along. Fits nicely in the hand, very comfortable to hold. Will tweak a few things tomorrow but otherwise this is just about finished.

What a week. Glass of wine now to close out the billable portion. All day in the shop tomorrow and Saturday to continue chipping through the Christmas list. Will have photos to share soon!
Tomorrow I shall finish carving a coffee scoop out of this lovely piece of cherry. That and a ½ pound of freshly roasted coffee for my mother in-laws’s birthday.
Do not underestimate yourself.
One thing a challenge will alway reinforce for me is that I don’t do very well with deadlines 😂

Tomorrow is another day. I’ll be a pedestrian on the sidewalks of the city for my every once in a while visit to the office.
One benefit to hand tools is a mask is usually never needed.
Lots of time in the shop today. Time lapse here. Massive progress on my dad’s Christmas gift. Should have it finished tomorrow.

A dilemma that I struggle with daily: I’m a dad. He’s 7 years old and I don’t know what I’m doing.
Have never been one to adjust how much I eat on Thanksgiving (or any holiday). Just a little bit of each dish that I like.

Time to call it a night.
Provision can easily be taken for granted.

Small batch roasted as part of my dad’s birthday gift.
Didn’t ask for this capture but I’m glad to have it.
When I’m on the border of something I watch You’ve Got Mail. Never quite sure why, but I’m drawn to it.

Looking forward to winter this year, which is very unlike me. I want to appreciate the season for what it offers, instead of suffering through it because of what it’s not.
My 7yo’s energy never seems to fade. Go go go from the moment he wakes to the moment he goes to sleep.
Happy with how much shop time I scored today! Here’s a quick time lapse of my time.
Roasted
Anything is possible.
