If the sum total of work I can accomplish on a Saturday is to grind off two brake shoe guide spring rivets before the 2 year old wakes up from the nap, how many naps will it take to rebuild the truck?

Just kidding, but the naps are a serious thing........ I think I'll go have one right now?

Naps are waisted on the young...
Is this like the how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsipop?

Maybe the grinder woke up your kid! Try quieter tasks to prolong the naps.

Of course, you
could let the kid watch. Mom might be surprised at the newly acquired vocabulary, though.

Just be thankful you don't have the problem us old people do! How many rivets can I grind off before I need a nap?
