It was one of those type things where I should have known that it would be a gamble to let him do it, because I knew that he always was in a rush to complete any job. He is a good guy, but his standard motto was... thats good enough for now, and we can redo it later if we have to. I on the other hand, always obsess on every detail and try to make it perfect the first time. I think that is why I don't get as much done as I should. Now, I say that I just don't have enough years left to get to everything that I want to. Sometimes retirement can be depressing, because the light you see at the end of the tunnel isn't really light, but the beginning of another era. I wonder where all the years went, and when I think about all my friends that have passed on, I get more depressed. I guess that is why I read and post on this forum. It keeps me busy when I don't want to go into the garage...
