Tuesday I got started on it about 11 AM. Fit in supper about 7 PM. About 11:30 thought about maybe quitting for the night. No, just one more this or that. Then at 1 AM. I packed it in for the night. 2 AM. Couldn't sleep. Too much on my mine. Then 3 AM arrives. Sill wide awake. I then decide that if this continues till 4 AM. I'm going out to get a real early start on Wed. 4 AM arrives. That's it. Get dressed, and head for the shop. Got a lot done Wed. Finally packed it in at 12:30 AM Thursday. Yes. I'm determined to get this thing to the Spring GMCMI event. Well. It's coming up on 12 AM again. Time to hit the rack. MAYBE.Bob DunahughPossessed

Bob,
This is a well understood condition that affects many of the of us large project guys.
It is called "The Going Together Screamies".
After going so much of a project for so long that it looks like you might actually complete it, one finds himself thinking,
"If I can just get this done, then I can do that and I will be a lot closer."
Now it is 9pm, and there is still lots of time to get to bed.
So, you do that one and takes a little longer than you expected because something wasn't "just so".
The clock says 10:46, and it would be good if you do this one more thing. It goes pretty well.
But the clock says 12:48.
Do I need to add - BTDT?
