the back of the courtroom.

Good morning everyboomie.
I'm running late tonight. I started a new project today flooring a bathroom, and I didn't want to stop. When I finally did quit I needed a shower and supper.
Now I'm just too tired to talk. My hands are cramping big time. My legs are too.
I hope you all have a great day.
It's
FRIDAY!!!.
