Glad to hear she's got thru it.  I've find my girls are much tougher than I even knew.

Kids are tougher than their elders are. My twins are four years old now. We have been waiting for this operation to happen since birth.

I do not know right term in english, but doc wrote it on paper "Hernia umbilicalis operata". i will not scare you for more information about it. But now her life will be more painfree and enjoyable.

Twins, wow!  Both girls?
If so, you will have your hand full of challenges, all the while they have you wrapped around their pinky. 

My two girls are adults in their thirties.  Only two grand daughters, and 7 grand sons.  Also, two sons.

Here is my latest acquisition.  Enameled cast iron pot. This comes from Lidl. Sorry to say, i would of liked to have bigger one. But they were sold out, so this was all there was left.

Busy day yesterday. Changed tires for my car. Took trailer full of garden waste to city composting area. Bought 9 meter long ladder for our condominium. Then changed burnt bulb for rear light. And last i installed new front fog lights.

My car has poor low beam lights, so i hope these fog lights will give good amount of extra light. I will have to think if i should get set of extra high beam lights aswell. I usually have to drive road that has lots of traffic, so fog lights became necessity.

It seems like Umbilical Hernia is what your daughter had, and it sounds like it is hereditary. (genetic) It is the hernia near where the umbilical cord came out of her belly.

I have one too, so your daughter is in good company. ;)

Our American cast iron pot company, Lodge, is marketing enameled cast iron pots now, but that line are made in China, so I will never have one. With enameled, you retain the even heating and heat retention of cast iron, but lose all the retention of flavor that cast iron was always famous. Still, I hope it works out for you!

As for your car's headlights, are they poor, or just aimed poorly? If they're poor, can replacement of bulbs fix it? Or maybe a new reflector? If they're aimed properly, sometimes in the US, they have a "Tamper-resistant Torx" screw for adjusting the aim, so that we can't aim them too high. Pro-tip: you can change a Tamper-resistant Torx screw into a slotted screw with a Dremel tool and a cutoff disc. ;)

Best of luck, whatever happens. I'm glad your daughter is OK.

Sorry, I have not been very active here lately. I have been doing long hours at work. I am at work right now, doing 12 hour night shift. Nine hours to go still, and nothing to do. This sucks. Looks like i will get minimum of 21 hours of overtime for these two weeks.

What comes to my car lights. New fog lights work great. I think i will buy new bulbs for driving lights to see if they get any better. Glass on those lights are little worn, and do need some polishing. Aiming is ok, and has been aimed properly.

We have had some snow recently, and my wife needs a car, so we got new used car for my work travel. It has much better lights than our old car has. Little love will be needed for it, but it seems very good car with good tires for winter. It is a keeper for now.

I will need to make little toolbox for it. Just in case something happens on the road. And i need to pick some multitool for car carry, because of no knife policy at work.

It has been awhile since my last update here. Work has been little hectik, and hours  keep  piling up. Best hours with in two weeks was little over 140 hours. Now it looks staying around 100 hours per two weeks.

I havent had time to make anything, but have had  couple nice things. From Ronald Shröder i got Workchamp, that i have been wanting for some time now. Thank you for that. Then i found a New Soldier year stamped 14 at sales after christmas. Couple days later i found Sentinel from same place. I havent had time to play with them much yet. But hope soon i can.

Little fun with Mora last night. I made a butterknife from a piece of birch. Oiled it with sunseed oil.

I washed and oiled it. Works very nice now. I like it a lot. I am not sure what it is, but i think it is Camper. Only three layers, Blades, saw, and openers. Backside 5 turn cs with groove, and awl w/o hole.  No tools on scales.

Ok, Camper then :D

Pre-1973 as it has clip point small blade though, so nice catch nonetheless  :tu:
