We moved into a place that has an automatic light sensor in the laundry room. They put it behind the door though and when you are working in there longer than 5 minutes it shuts off because it can't see you moving around. How easy is it to add a 2nd sensor?
Actually now that i think of it, maybe it will be easier to adjust the length of time the light stays on (if possible)

You can get Hue bulbs and then sensors that you can put anywhere you want.  It would avoid messing with any wiring.

Yoga, how many bodies are you planning to bury underneath the concrete, and why did you murder them, you sick SOB?

Probably 2 1/2-3 hours. Concrete saw is pretty amazing (minus the fumes even with water). Cut it out where I needed it then some smaller sections so hauling and breaking it out would be easier. Took the sledgehammer to it and hauled smaller pieces off in 5 gallon buckets. Then dug the dirt out where I need to put the vanity and shower line. The rest will take a lot longer

Why were there fumes?  Please tell me you were using an electric saw?

It will kill you if too exposed.  That is where the term "widow maker" comes from.  A specific tool back in the day would take 20 year olds and kill them in a year or two.  Too much silica dust

Grandkids can't pedal the tractor but want to be pushed.  Made this to save my back out of half a lawn mower handle and rubber grip off Amazon.

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Looks good but based on the oven towel I have to ask how many "Live Love Laugh" "Eat" "Welcome" etc fancy cursive signs do you have in your house? I'm putting the O/U at 8

LOL. The towel was given to my wife by her BFF. We have a few signs with our last name and/or the initial of our last name but that’s it.
