: just keep telling yourself that .

I do that every stinkin' time I gotta get out there, Bill. I have lost about 17-lbs on this project but gained back some fairly ignored muscle mass which I somehow lost once I completed my big river trip. Mom saw her new sidewalk yesterday...she's pretty darned happy about it...not so happy when I told her how much more $$$ I spent to get it as far as I have thus far. I love spending other folks hard earned $$$. That said, for a grand total of ~$3000, mom is getting about $12000 worth of effort out of me.
