My grandfather was a jack of all trades but a cabinet builder by trade. We were building my father a workshop and we were hammering studs. He had on overalls and the way he was standing was so that his back was to the stud and he was hammering away. He tried to walk away but had nailed his overalls to the 2 X4. He just looked at me and said "Well I guess it's time for a break." Then he just leaned up against the 2 X 4 and took a nap standing up. He told me later that you have to take advantage of every opportunity. Oh and can I share a grandfather quip with you? My grandfather was a jack of all trades but a cabinet builder by trade.

Oh, how I wish I still had a grandfather. Both of mine were farmers, and full of practical knowledge. My mother's father (8 children of his own who each had 6 or more children of their own) would look over all of us, piled on each other in the living room, and boom out "Everybody Happy?" And we were. Very. I’m looking forward to the new book! Oh, how I wish I still had a grandfather. Both of mine were farmers, and full of practical knowledge.
