I've decided to name my little friend, Stevie, cause I was just listening to Little Lies from Fleetwood Mac, and it seems fitting

chillin with Kitty while I enjoy one more cup, and I get to hand the on-call phone off today - I've had to deal with some kind of after hours issue every day since it was handed to me last week we're gonna have a great day today - Lets Go!!!

leaving my own note, 70 years later, for the next time she's serviced - I probably won't still be around, but it warms my heart to get to be a part of history #Typewriter #RoyalTypewriter #TypewriterLady

back on this cert - I was so close on the practice test, but this test is expensive as hell and, like 90% of all my certs, I'll be paying for it myself, so I'm taking my time and starting at the very beginning

I always love the notes, initials and other writings found under platens and carriages - this machine is one of the last of this series from 1950 as evidenced by the bodywork and keys the owner will be pleased to learn more history it appears indeed she has been serviced before so cool

just finished this 1947 Royal Companion for a local poet - she really just needed a good cleaning, ribbon, and bell trip lever adjustment Poets are my best customers 🖤

one of these days maybe I'll be able to afford electrolysis - shaving does kinda make me looked ripped though

wow, check this 1951 Royal I'm workin on for a woman here in North Park - it belonged to her grandmother, who is still around btw - she has great disdain for this machine, but her granddaughter and I love it! it has everything, key, brush, documentation, OEM certificate, and original bill of sale 😻

so long little Pixel 7 Pro, we had a great run... really hoped to get the fully supported life out of it, but my screen cracked, and I thought my work phone smacking up against it was the cause, but it was really the swelling of the battery underneath man, that shit started shedding my fingers

I worked all weekend on a huge cutover of one of our medical systems, and I'm about to head into the office - I didn't get much time with my buddy, so I'm enjoying some now - if I'm late, I'm late

today is animal rescue Day at the Shane House - this bee was dozing on my windscreen as I left to meet my friend for breakfast - I used a napkin to move her to a plant before I got on the highway - she was hangin out on the UV glue I used to repair that chip the sun'll be up soon sleepy lil bee 🖤

workin on laundry and I noticed this little baby outside my door - no idea how it got so far into the building, maybe it knew I would help - it must have crossed relative miles of carpet

I've had this typewriter I'm fixin up for a local poet on my bench for three weeks now thankfully he's in no rush for it - I just haven't really wanted to do much of anything lately which is strange because this is the first time I've ever even seen this model of Royal - its SN is from 1948 btw

as we watch the flag draped caskets of our fallen service members returning let us remember they gave their lives, not to stop nukes, but to divert attention from our president's involvement in the Epstein files

we're this about nukes, we would also be attacking North Korea, who is known to possess such weapons

finished repairing this Triumph Tippa - draw band had jumped and wound itself into a ball of spaghetti I feel this was because of the design of the carriage lock - which is on a cam and semi-automatic I'll warn the collector, and offer my standard warranty, should it cause problems for him again
