My condolences Bob!!

Thank you. On a positive note I may never have to buy another hand tool
again. Maybe not my son either.

Bob,

You may not have to buy one(1),
until you can't find the one(1) you need!! 🙂

Recently I could not find my best flashlight, for about 2 months
or more!! Then I happened to be at Harbor Freight for a something
cheap, and at check out they offered two(2) small LED Flashlights
as a "gift". I took them home and within about 2 days my best
flashlight showed up exactly were I had left it months before!!

It will never be explained!! LOL

Les, If I fell down in the wrong place I'd have flashlights coming out
my ears. My favorite is a shop light with spot and area lighting
functions I bought off one of those Christmas special racks at a local
chain hardware store. I wouldn't mind having a few of those, but I
haven't seen it anywhere since.

Hi Bob,
When my Dad passed my Mom had to split up his tools and stuff 5 ways.
Being the oldest I got to choose first. Well at least that is what
she said. Can't say for sure but....................

Its not any kind of loss. Its all the responsibility. If I didn't step
up and managed the trust, property, income, insurance, move my mom in
with us, etc, etc, etc my mom would be lost. Its all a giant time suck.
The trust says I can draw a salary (more or less) but there is nothing
liquid except social security payments to my mom and a rental which will
be moving out this summer. Everything else is tied up in assets... and
if you can believe it more tools than I own, and I own a lot of tools.
None of it is of course right next door either.

So I still have to find time to run the shop.
