Ran around to select some composite for my next project, drove a bit faster than usual because a full tank of gas is like a full bag of weed - caution to the wind until you get to that half way point :)

Spending the better part of the afternoon working on a quote for an outdoor living project, once that's done it's back to working on the house and beers beers beers. Putting up a 12x16 shed, have to put the hogs in first but it might be a tad too hot for that action today.

It's not real equipment unless it can mangle, mame, or kill you.

You guys don't even know.

You ever used a tractor as a skidder on a mountain side. I watched a guy get killed doing the same dumb shit.


There was some old growth red oaks on the property. Needed the money. Had a tractor.

Anyways. I cut a trail and used block and tackle to keep the front of the tractor down.

My asshole could've still cut washers out of nails.

Laid out some pavers by front porch...stared at steps for hour then snapped said fuck this. Took off glued tops and decided we're making them wider on Monday. I need enough room for 2 people to flank my 93 yr. old mother in law up those steps. Or somebody drunk up or down, never know...

So a temporary step back to make it a little better...0624161517c-1.jpg

the fucking room is getting painted today. the new drywall looks decent enough, it's been spackled and sanded twice now. threw on some paint last night just to see for sure. already painted the ceiling again, just waiting for it to dry so i can tape off and do the walls.

then i'll just have to trim out, frame a mirror, and do an easy little built in organizer.

the finish line on my "simple" remodel is finally in sight. fuckassshit.

I had to replace the 2 ballasts in my kitchen light today. Never done that before. After snipping and splicing what seemed like hundreds of wires I was as giddy as a fat kid at the ice cream truck when I flipped the switch and light appeared. The boxes said to be installed only by an electrician. I guess I'm an electrician now. :bigjoint:

Nice going. I just learned the plumbing trade the other day. Srh88 is all jealous and shit. Has been leaving passive aggressive posts on my Facebook page and everything. Keeps leaving dead animals in my lawn too.

You too! I replaced a gas water heater the other day and he was all like "hey neo don't forget to do the bubble test so you don't blow up". As if I actually care if I blow up. Man some people.

Been taking care of a kitten since I got home from work. I've been bottle feeding it between it's naps and making sure my cats don't kill it. I'm pretty sure it's my cat Lucifer's grandkitten, it looks just like her son, and he is the only black cat I've seen within several miles of here.

The rest of the litter didn't make it, and he wasn't looking so good. So I've been taking care of the little shit and my niece has been looking after it while I'm at work.
