Hopefully it's not just me. Having recently moved into the middle of suburbia and not wanting the building noise to upset my new neighbors, I noted those who had young children and then went around and let them know I was building and to expect some noise. Having had 3 children myself (not all by myself), I know that young children take afternoon naps and the last thing they need is the sound of very loud power tools waking them up. It was a good opportunity to introduce myself and they all really appreciated the fact that I gave them a thought. Turns out that one of my neighbors is a cabinet maker by trade and has offered me the use of his vast array of tools. Anyway, I down tools between 11 -2 on the weekends and I have a self imposed noise curfew of 6pm during the week.
Right at this moment in time I have nothing to do but cut timber and scarf plywood which are noisy jobs. I get home from work just before 6pm so am getting no building done this week. Needless to say, I am going a little stir crazy. I still grab my cup of tea and head out to the garage just to spend some quality time with my KR. Having nothing to do, I went to bed at 9:30 last night for the first time since giving up my own afternoon nap when I was a child. The weekend can not come quickly enough! Whilst on the subject of the stability of my mind right now, is it normal to wake in the morning with KR thoughts pulsing through your mind and during the day do you get ideas on design changes for the KR because a curve in the road reminded you of the curve of the fuselage? How about noticing a VW with a hot engine but failing to notice the hot babe driving it. I know that the last thing on my mind before sleep tonight will be the KR and I will awake tomorrow, one day closer to the weekend. BRING ON THE WEEKEND!! -- Darren Crompton AUSTRALIA www.kr-2s.com
