G'day Evie,
Yep, I lost mine and have a paper to prove it

Got some of it back though

I'll still be here, annoy, enjoy, and participate.

The beauty of people is that they are all different, I'm pretty good at letting things roll of my back, though sometimes something sticks real bad and just has to shoved.

Sis, you aint upset me yet, If you do I'll let you know.

Naw, the people here have their minds. It is the people who work a 9-5 job they hate for years on end, and have nothing they do that they truly enjoy who I wonder about. That doesn't match those here, so therefore, we all must have our minds.

Nope, sawdust making keeps us sane and happy. Actually it is the pleasure that others get from the things we make that allow us to keep it together when all others are losing it.

On the humorous ( I hope) side of things:

They say that the mind is the one of the first two things to go. I forget what the other one is.

My doctor says that every day I am to say to myself; self, you are the only sane one left, all the others have lost it.

I have been doing woodworking of some sort for 50 years. I have lost my sanity a few times but have always managed to get it back. Maybe not totally, but a good part of it. I have always woundered what has mad me regain reality. I have decided that it is the SAWDUST. Nothing else has been that consistent in my life.
So get out there, make some and take a good whiff.

Evie,
Are you talking about the forum or life in general?

Sawduster · 12-24-2007, 01:22 PM

It's a bona-fide fact that I have lost my mind

Ask anyone who knows me personally

Sounds like you're dealing with the Christmas gremlins Big Sis ....thank goodness it is only once a year !!

Andy · 12-24-2007, 01:33 PM

I know that yes, I did lose my mind. It went shortly after I lost my hard drive yesterday. Sheesh ... just what I needed during a busy holiday. I lost my mind, my patience and about 2 months worth of patterns. The backup was scheduled for today. *heavy sigh* Still gonna have a Merry Christmas though ... and I'm back up and running ... sort of ... enough to post anyway.

Can't say I lost my mind...........misplaced it several times.
Some people I know say I've never had one to begin with.
