BMW 121 Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 What are your children up to?? My 12yob wants to power drill rocks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Renee in NC 551 Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 My 11yo is learning to cut wood with a miter box saw and frame in a door. I don't know about drilling rocks, but what about a rock hammer? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
joannqn 539 Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 My 12yob wants to power drill rocks. Ack! I can't imagine that happening here since DH almost never uses his power tools. The miter saw I bought him 8-9 years ago has never made it out of the box even though it was something he wanted. My kids? The boys, ages 2 and 7, are at the dog park with my husband. The oldest girl is using her screen time on the computer until I can get up and cut her hair. The baby is in my lap sleeping. It's very quiet here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TraceyS/FL 546 Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 I was checking to see if a friends son is going to get sprung from the hospital today (he's not :( ), and mind took that opportunity to ESCAPE the great american "muck out the schoolroom" project! Time to go back and round them back up. But, i was the one with the powertool in my hand today - crappy version that it was!! LOL!! (and my shelf is not level because of it) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LizzyBee 1,066 Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 Your post title reminded me of a conversation I had with my uncle this summer. His granddaughter is married to a Southern Gospel singer who is one of the best bass singers in the world. He is incredibly talented. My uncle said, "Tim can sing good, but that's all he can do. Don't ever give him a hammer, and if you see him with one, take it from him." Apparently, Tim has flooded the house and busted a window out of the van, among other things.
