Wasn't it Eisenhower that said trust is gained by the spoonful and lost by the bucket?

Some family member ground my last f*ckin' nerve and is now completely empty of my trust.

True in all circles, family, business, international affairs.  I learned the value of trust as both a powerful gift & also a weighty responsibility from some good people in my young years.  Extending one's trust to others can be hugely rewarding or savagely disappointing.  Sorry to read that your trust has taken a kick.

All good, or as good as it can be.

Time to adjust perspective as that person certainly has.

Thanks for your comments

Morning. Master bath faucet failed. This went from repair the faucet to I never like that faucet....or this sink. Might as well replace the vanity...and now the cabinet should match.

Long as they're out might as well paint the walls. That tile is ugly...too.

I can stop anytime.  :P

Eugh.... slept real bad.  Still awake at 02:30.....  awake again at 05:00  [bang]

Unusual for me, I'm normally a professional sleeper.

I slept well. I still have a touch of some illness. Primed the bathroom last night. If it ever stops snowing I can get my garden set up.

Evening

Got news of a family member who's passing away.  Got about five weeks until...

Just having a hard time with all this

Anywho, there's [wine]

The concept of death is the one thing that is universally troubling.

Sorry to hear Stu.
