Along comes another weekend...

.. and I am going on call. Frustrations about the corvette, work schedule, season, and the house have all compounded into a couple of lessons for the ages. What I have learned is...

• An expert is only an expert because they do that on a regular basis, meaning you, yourselves, should be able to do as well as any expert if you set your mind to it.
• Just because someone claims that they are willing to work things out doesn't mean they actually are willing to.
• Do things on your own. That way, you can expect a specific result. If you don't like the result, just do it over, until you are satisfied.

That's not to condone becoming a hermit, but just a simple principle. You are the best expert when it comes to things that are close to your heart.
