CECAA850 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Very nice work Carl. Thanks Neil. After the granite trim was installed, I didn't like the gap between the tile and the granite. Monday I pulled the border tiles off and scraped the mortar off the concrete board. Last night I cut new tile and this evening I re-set them. That's why there's spacers in the pictures. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizRotus Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 (edited) It was a lot of work to correct the gap issue, but you'll be glad you did over the long haul. Plus, you may never have another headache after all that tile-n-all. Edited November 19, 2015 by DizRotus 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStewMan Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 THANK YOU TARHEEL ... Chuck had our backs when he started this thread ... Americans love coffee, and each sip of it may be lowering risk of early death for the 54 percent of adults who drink it every day. In a new study, researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health studied the benefits of both caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee, and found both conferred a lower risk of dying from the leading causes of death in the United States. "This study provides further evidence that moderate consumption of coffee may confer health benefits in terms of reducing premature death due to several diseases," the study’s senior author Frank Hu, a nutrition and epidemiology professor at Harvard, said in a press release. "These data support the 2015 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Report that concluded that 'moderate coffee consumption can be incorporated into a healthy dietary pattern.'" 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bench work is complete on the voice chip, and after a little break here about to find some speech for Mr Gopher ironically, my heart was trippin out yesterday up in Arrowhead. Came home early. Talked to cardiologist today, she said it was probably a combination of the altitude and my asthma medicine and the cold temperature. Told her i was afraid to use my asthma inhaler now; but, she said to use it if i need to because that takes priority over an irregular heartbeat. maybe i’ll just add another cup of joe in the morning. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, im aware of that, happening yesterday, saw the input from the other folks, that is enough. Told ya sometime back, get the hell outta there, quit being there for other people, and be there for yourself, it's time. Id consider you're arrowhead outing a warning, time to take care of yourself. I come from this angle, because as you know, every one i knew, is dead. Edited November 19, 2015 by minermark 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuckAb3 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Hey folks ... happy Thursday. Looks like I missed some good stuff yesterday afternoon. Steve ...sounds like positive news and nothing too serious although experience tells me it really pays to stay on top of heart issues. Stay healthy, friend. Carl ... beautiful work. Thank you for the pics and progress reports. Planning a little side trip in a few days to meet up with our daughter. She'll be in the States for a week or so. Can't wait till they are back on a permanent basis. Have a good day everyone. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akdave Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Good morning! It's 6 out this morning with about three inches of new snow - the extra 21 degrees over yesterday is really nice to have! A nice dark French roast to kick off the morning. Tarheel +1 on the thanks for keeping us focused on coffee - it's all about the health! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
