Bryce always gives me inspirations... if not questions that I need to spend a life's time to find the answer.

What do I want to do in my life? What's next about my PhD? What's next when I retire?

Seriously, I want to be a carpenter. I want to be like Bert, sawing wood, making little things... I want to be able to make furniture, fix the window...

I said I wanted to be a psychological carpenter, jokingly, when I was sawing wood in Scotland.

And Bryce actually built his house. Maybe I can do it too, someday.

So, to begin with, I got this book. Got to find out where to take a woodwork course to start.
