Long weekend

It was a long weekend here at bluecollartrader central. Lots of construction work... I nearly finished the install of 750 sqft of hardwood flooring while Mrs Bluecollar touched up paint and filled the nailholes in the casing after a family friend hung our doors then covered them and the windows with the trim casing. With only 11 days left on a very firm deadline, I haven't had much time to think about trading. Only the occasional moment to log-in, the one trade if things look right for it.
I have the flooring nailer rented until 2:00pm today so I must not sit in on the markets today... In fact, I should be nailing flooring NOW! After the return of the nail gun, it is on to the countertop manufacturers to give them the sink cut-out template. I'll make time to stop at the post office, then back home. By then, it will be after 4:00 pm market close, I'm sure. So, there is too much "life" going on in my trading day! After this weekend, I need another cup of coffee as I make my way to the project...

Good luck to you all today. I'm planning on taking some serious trading practice time in July. But, it all depends on how busy day-job is... after 20 years doing it, I have very loyal customers calling for service. This is why I have a long outlook on my goal of trading for a living. It is impossible to just drop everything and practice trade. Slow and steady wins the race...
