long run it's cheaper to just buy the stuff, not as much satisfaction
though, and it seems to me there's SO much less hand made or custom built
stuff around, people just live with what they can buy in the store and much
of that is cheap ****, one size fits all, when it breaks throw it away,
never really fit all that well anyhow.)

I hope so, but it is not at all a given that they will want to do
their own stuff.

As far as weight loss, things are not that bad, basically I regained
19 lbs, but I am still way below my starting weight.

in the comments you mention the adults are fatter. that made me wonder
how's it going with your weight loss, have you been able to keep the weight
off? i know it's difficult.

b.w.
