I've not purchased one gift yet and for some reason this year am struggling for ideas.  Usually something comes to me, maybe I just need to be patient and it will come to me in time for any ordering and shipping that's necessary.

Put a shelf in a cabinet (removed the doors) for my compound miter saw. Below the saw is my shop vac and cyclone separator. The separator only allows air and a minimal amount of dust into the shop vac, so that the filter needs cleaning less often. I had the vac and the separator on a cart that was in the way. There was a tool chest in that cabinet, but I'm selling it, so it went to storage, along with my old router table, which I'm also selling. All this clearing out is so that the table saw I bought can be accommodated in my tiny working space.

Clicking links on twitter to videos promising that: "bro this is actually the funniest video on the internet, watch till the end."

Watching it made me feel horrible and what makes it far worse is that everyone else (presumably) believed it to be funny.

A SawStop PCS with the extensions to put a router in. Went whole hog- got a router lift and everything.

I've had so much work on my plate because of the rental house that I haven't even put in the wiring to power it. Bought it in April and have yet to turn it on.  All that is left on the rental house is to supervise the flooring installation (kitchen, laundry and one bathroom) and carpet cleaning. Then it's up for sale, and out of my hair. I hope. I haven't done a lick of wood working or carving because of the mess, in many months.

Watching my homemaker wash dishes that are clean, but that I was too lazy to put away. Oh well, I'm going to have trouble finding things for her to do today as it is. I have a cold, and so I called her agency yesterday to cancel. They never called the homemaker and she showed up unaware that I had canceled. My homemaker is quite good. The one woman agency that sent her, not so much. Not a people person and clearly doesn't give a shit.

Waiting on a dreaded Zoom call and killing time organizing paperwork since it's really a slow week for me workwise.

Trying to find a place to buy turkey livers and gizzards.

Were I making Thanksgiving dinner this year, I would be happy to send you some.

I'll probably have to settle for chicken, but still will make an interesting pasta.
