* Video for "Squaring Up" "Rush"
Chair Bottoms' using the "Goff Method" was completed this afternoon! I was informed

Five Things That "Seat Weavers'" Cannot Recover In Life: (1) The Stone ....... After It Is Thrown! (2) The Word .......
After It Is Said! (3) The Occasion ....... After It Is Missed! (4) The Time ....... After It Is Gone! (5)
A Person ....... After They Die! So use integrity! Less of a burden than regrit!

Chair
Caning, & Seat Weaving What If (For Me) Recently I read a very interesting paragraph
about how, & where to strip off old chairs, & it will NEVER be in my shop again due to inhaling
dust, mildew, etc. from an old chair(s) because of where, & how they may have been stored!
It will be done outside of my shop with maximum ventilation, & before I bring the chair caning, or seat weaving re- storation into my shop to restore! Coming from an attic, an
old barn, a basement, or an out building may cause health problems which I did not bargain for when
I took in this or that chair caning or seat weaving restoration to do!
IMPORTANT NOTE: Dust Mask, & Gloves will be used ALWAYS during the strip off of old chairs etc.!
|
* If you have discovered,
& are daily using the Chair Caning Lock Step Method TM that's absolutely fantastic!
I will be teaching the Chair Caning Lock Step Method TM without the references/substitions so that it will
(hopefully) not be so confusing to my Online Class as I did with MY STUDENT ADULT EDUCATION CLASSES!!! They got it, & use it every single day!

Primitive circa 1810 corner chair from Virginia!
I personally did the "Aged" Splint bottom in this primitive Va. circa 1810 corner chair I found in a antique mall several years ago! It"s a real "Keeper" and has been passed on to the next expert chair caning
generation!

* DAY 26 AFTER "OPEN HEART SURGERY"!!!
* I really don't have much to say about my recovery except that it
appears to be on track as the incision continues to heal, & the pain (Hooray) contnues to daily decrease,
& that is really more than welcome to this really tired ole soul: but above all else I am so very
"Thankful" for getting a new lease on life which this "Open Heart Surgery" has given
me!!! * This is being posted so that I can personally keep track of my "Open Heart Surgery" Journey back to "Driving", & my Chair Caning,
& Seat Weaving Craft World, & whatever I choose to do after all of the loose ends are caught up due
to the "Open Heart Surgery"!!!
* ON
SAT UR DAY (OVERCAST X MAS DAY) DECEMBER 25, 2010 @ 8:34 AM EST
* With Breakfast out of the way, & by the way I am eating double portions of breakfast, & lunch so that
I can put on some of the weight I lost due to the "Open Heart Surgery", & not more than
I need to gain back hopefully!!! * Teaching anyone "How to" "Hand
Cane Chairs'", do"Rush Bottom Chairs'", do "Splint Bottom Chairs", etc., & not
teach them "How to" "MATCH STAINS" on any type of these Chairs is giving
an incomplete "Chair Caning Class" because sooner or later your students' are going to have
to "MATCH a STAIN", & they haven't been given the knowledge, or tools to do do!!!
* And sadly it is a very easy, & simple thing to teach your student to do!!!
* Tomorrow I will begin a very short; but extremely accurate, & factual verbal post on "Caning, &
Staining"!!! * "BLESSINGS', "THANKS" for stopping by, &

* DAY 25 AFTER "OPEN
HEART SURGERY"!!!
* I've stopped asking myself what if I had gone home
on November 19, 2010 instead of taking that very last test the ER Doc wanted me to
take!!! He was very insistent, & convinced me to take that last test to look for an aneurysm which
I did because this was a test no Doc had ask me to take in the past year!!! & that's
what the Doc found, & the rest is history!!! Without a doubt I know Gods hand was in all of this, &
it really will change the remainder of my life forever!!! * I have
some very important things' to do now!!!
* ON FRY DAY (PAST MIDNIGHT) DECEMBER 24, 2010 @ 12:56 AM EST
* I will now focus on other things related to "Chair
Caning, & Seat Weaving in this Blog instead of just Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving!!!
* The "Binder Cane Rockers'", & the "Rush" Bottom Chair re- mained stacked up until
I can go back to work in February, & get them done!!! Then I'm going to take a permanent vacation from Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving "UNTIL"!!! * The
Client whom owns the "Binder Cane Rockers'" came by today because He had not heard from me, or
seen me stop by my favorite shop in Petersburg, Virginia, "THE TRADING POST", &
reasoned He's either extremely busy, or something is "Wrong"!!! Well, He learned something was
wrong, & had been fixed, & I was on the mend, & would be doing his "Rockers'" the end
of January, or the beginning of February, & was happy to wait!!! Just take your time,
& get well, He said leaving a "Christmas Cake" to enjoy over the holidays!!! I might add He
is a "NEW" Client!!! * It's 11:14 AM, & I have finally gotten
up for the day: but this schedule will not last forever so I'm going to really enjoy it while I can!!! * Had breakfast earlier this morning around 9 AM along with my
Meds, & simply went back to bed to get a little extra sleep which I really needed because I'm still not
getting a good night's rest due to the "Pain" , & simply not finding that comfortable sleeping position yet!!! * & yes, the Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving
continue as I mend from my "Open Heart Surgery"!!! Do you have a back up plan due
to not being able to do your Client's work for several weeks, or months like I have!!!

* Sleep is still an issue as a result of the fact that I am a very light
sleeper, & I toss, & turn on top of that so I will just have to learn how to deal with it until I completely
heal!!!
* ON THURS DAY (AFTER MIDNIGHT) DECEMBER 23, 2010 @ 1:13 AM EST
* I have done a lot of Chairs during my lifetime, & have never taken a penny from each Chair job
to benefit, & bless others; but having had this "Open Heart Surgery" has really made
me re- think my priorities in life in a way that I have never done before!!!
* In 2011 I am going to put aside a simple single dollar ($1.00) from each Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving job,
& at the end of the year donate the proceeds to my local worthy community charity in the name
of my business "Country Seat Weavers", & make it an annual event in the years' to come!!!
Of course I'll match the Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving proceeds from Caning, & Weaving!!!
* IN A FEW DAYS I WILL BEGIN TO TAKE THIS WEBSITE, & EDIT IT, & DECEIDE IN WHAT DIRECTION
I WANT IT TO GO!!! I KNOW THAT THE TUTORIALS WILL BE TAKEN DOWN, & AT SOME POINT IN
THE FUTURE WILL BE REPLACED WITH A CHAIR CANING, & SEAT WEAVING VIDEO WHICH CAN, & WILL
REPLACE ALL OF THE TUTORIALS!!! * "BLESSINGS", "THANKS' for stopping

Pain wise I'm still having a lot of trouble finding a comfortable
position to sleep in, & get a good night's rest so this morning I'm am going to go back to bed, & start
my day later which will not make any difference because I simply cannot do anything until after the
top of the year in 2011!!! * In spite of being very apprehensive today I
took my first walk today for six (6) blocks to, & from the 7/11 without any problems what so ever!!!
Tomorrow I will tackle a small incline, & walk to the drug store!!! And gently push towards the top
of the year when I will start driving again!!!
* ON MUN DAY (BRIGHT BEAUTIFUL SON NEE DAY) DECEMBER 20, 2010 @ 8:55 AM EST

I'm going back to bed!!! * Later, ... & it's now 11:33 AM, & I'm finally
up, & at em to start my day!!! * And it's back to my student,
& that "Rush" Bottom Chair!!! This has really been frustrating for me because I cannot even pick up a "Short Wide Bladed Screwdriver" to push the "Rush" around to get it striaght!!!
But hopefully today we will turn the corner, & finish it up!!! *
Posting on my "BLOG" everyday has given me an overview of what I have been doing, & has
made me realize I'm really not going in the direction I want to go nor am I achieving the goals' I want
to achieve as far as the internet is concerned!!! * So those goals will be some
of my New Year's resolutions!!! Yes, it's that time of the year again!!!

* DAY 20 AFTER "OPEN HEART SURGERY"!!! *DAY 20 AFTER "OPEN HEART SURGERY"!!!
I'd rather sleep in everyday; but my Meds make it absolutely necessary
for me to keep a get up, & go to bed schedule so that I can take my meds around the same time everyday
so they can be extremely effective, & do the job they were meant to do!!! Just simply cannot
monkey around with this Meds' business!!!
ON SON DAY (OVERCAST) DECEMBER 19, 2010 @ 8:33 AM EST
* Yesterday's breakfast repeated for today along with Meds makes for another
beginning of a day for which I am more than "Thankful" as a result of the events which have occured
over the past few weeks!!! * If Dr. Lewis the attending ER physician
at a small city hospital has dismissed my "Back Pain" as merely "Back Pain",
& not looked for "Back Pain" due to an "Aneurysm" (THE SIZE OF A GOLF BALL) between
my heart, & lung I would not be hunting, & pecking on this computer this morning!!! I'd probably
be, yes, pushing up Daises!!! * This afternoon I'm going to make a valiant
attempt to finish teaching my student how to do that "Rush" Bottom Chair, & simply get
it out of the way so it can be delivered!!! * IN A FEW DAYS I'M GOING TO BEGIN
DIMANTLING THIS WEBSITE, & THEN I'LL DECEIDE IN WHICH DIRECTION I WANT
TO GO WITH THIS WEBSITE FOR THE FUTURE!!! * "BLESSINGS", "THANKS'
