Scott NC Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 I agree with everyone, Thomas. There is no place like home. Now, do you think you can drum up a New Mexico heat wave to beat down Frosty's (I'm sure he denies it) artic blast? At least send some of your sun here, it's been overcast for weeks. I miss ol Sol...

Frosty Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Your own bed, home cooking and a wood stove to sit and let the warm soak into the bones. Nothing better. Happy for you Thomas, what are you having for dinner tonight? Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thom Noblitt y Gonzalez Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Minion James is in Socorro and I am visiting family out of state. He sent me a great gift. For those not familiar the hammer is named Frenchie. The minions covet her, love her, and she is the favored hammer. So we share pictures of her and joke that when she is missing the other minion stole her. So to see pictures of Thomas, in his shop, checking in on her makes me smile. Thomas, student of Thomas, celebrating his return to the shop. How long until he tells us to clear out the stuff we stored in there while no one was at home. (Lawnmower and generator) we should have done it sooner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arkie Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 Methinks he covets his hammer....and the look is "Don't even try to take it away from me!!!!. Merry Christmas. Good to see you in the shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George N. M. Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 I have to admit that one of my great blessings this Chriatmas is knowing that Thomas is home and at least getting out to his shop with adult supervision. This is unexpected and wonderous news and makes my heart very happy. Blessings to everyone. George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 I thought I was having a wonderful Christmas already and upon checking Iforge I see pics of Thomas fondling Frenchie and grinning! I'm with George this has to be one of the best Christmas gifts I've ever received! I'm almost giddy! League Curling is starting up and I'll have to figure out how to name our team after Thomas! I've GOT TO come up with something, the club president suggested that because my name is Jerry we call the team "Jerry Curlers!" Yeah, I have 4 games under my belt but am such a novice I have trouble standing on the ice. So what if I've won the last 3 games, is that any reason to name the team for me? MERRY CHRISTMAS THOMAS!! Thom: I'll stand the minions to a beer one of these days! Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 It is such a gift to be home, warm and well fed. Probably fire up Hospice with the new year... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimw3326 Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Thomas, it's great you were able to get home before the holiday. Did you manage to get to the shop? My daughter has worked for a couple of the hospice outfits in ABQ. Pm me who you're looking at and I'll get you an inside review. They all have good and bad but some of the bad is administrative other is more patient centric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 After enlargifying the pics of you in the shop I was shocked to see mushrooming on the much minion coveted hammer of your preference! We all know what dangers flying chips entail, it obviously needs frenchie dressing! Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 It was annealed in a bombed out factory during WWII IIRC; why students can't mar an anvil face with it. Yes overdue for proper dressing; but SWMBO is not going to let me use power tools for a while.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Too dangerous is what what minions are for aren't they? You DO have a swagger stick to emphasize your instructions don't you? I can see why it's such a favored hammer, very cool. Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrick Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Thomas-So good to see you home and in good spirits. those are the first pics I've seen of your New Mexico shop. Looks like quite a step up from the one in Columbus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Griner Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 It is great to hear you are in your happy place Thomas! And I agree with Patrick, you new shop is much nicer than the garage that was slowly sliding to the horizontal! Terry, one of the minions who survived!

Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Thank you for the update & pictures Thom.
