I’ve had a raging toothache on/off for the last couple of weeks. Last place I want to go is a bloody dentist. Might have too soon though.

numbing the pain with Vodka 🤨🤪👍

Good luck at the dentist col. 😂

Good morning, everyone hang tough. I am lucky in a way I retired about three years ago after almost 50yrs. in the tile business. This job takes a toll on the body. Two knee operations and sore back. My son ( 3rd generation) has been setting tile for several years. I am glad to be out now as the tiles are getting bigger and bigger ( his brother in law is working with 2'x4' tiles right now).
As I said I am retired but have been doing some work for friends, neighbors and a contractor who lives up the street from me. Stay safe.

Morning all.
It's about 40 and real damp out. Forecast is a high of 59 on Sunday then rain snow thru Thurs.
The good thing is the snow dosen't last for more than a day or two.
Having lived in Northern New Jersey most of my life I don't miss the snow. One year we had 13 snowfalls in 13 weeks, between 12"-30" each. The 30" one left me with 6'-7' drifts in the drive and 4' on the roof.
I was shoveling the roof to prevent ice dams.
It got so bad I had to have my neighbor clear out some snow from the drive with his backhoe as I did not have any more room to put the snow. I had piles 8'-10' high.
Where I live now NC, USA when ever there is a forecast of snow the locals get real excited, they can't wait!
It was here that I fell first ever cleaning snow off the cars. It started ad rain then froze then snowed on top, making it real slick.
Since I am retired now every day feels like the weekend. I have a few bathrooms and a laundry room to do for a builder who lives and is building a new house less than a mile up the street from me it will be a nice commute.
