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

Hey Bob, how about boxing some of that surplus energy and send it my way. I
am recovering from open heart aortic valve replacement surgery and get
tired way before my mind shuts off for the day. But, it's getting better
day by day. One month out today, doctor released me to my local
cardiovascular doctor here in town. Another month before I can lift
anything over 10 pounds. What a bummer.

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?

Matt
