He alluded to the fact that he isn't into it right now in another thread. I know how he feels. I'm trying to reinvent my hobbies so I stay interested and enthusiastic about them. Funny how priorities change as time passes by.

I looked at it yesterday, found something better to do. Sorry. Ive got all the tough things done. Its just a matter of putting it all together.
My wife has a honey-do list a friggin mile long because our daughter's graduation open house is the 17th.
Rebuilt the broken-down section of the garage wall, repainted the garage inside/out, she's been staining the deck (not a small job).
I now have a sidewalk to pour, some mortar work to be done and have to rebuild some steps in that time, not to mention go buy all the refreshments for the party.
But yeah, smokinlmm is correct.
I'll get back at it eventually.

This is why I plan to stay single, no honey-do list to get in the way of race truck priorities haha:roflmao:
Brian, you have no idea.......:roflmao:
Her idea of fun is work, work, work. Im getting real tired of it. I work enough at work. Weekends are supposed to be fun. Life is too short.
But remember, houses need maintenance no matter if you're married or not.

Children are more fun than any race truck buddy...:thumb:
The wife that generally comes with them, that's often debatable...:joker:
The partners Brian is interested in can't bear children anyways due to having the wrong letter on their birth certificate.....
In this day and age, what with people "identifying" as WTF-ever they want, you just never know.
I wouldn't change a thing about having kids. Even though I could easily have a race tuck with what I have spent on them and they are only 4 and 8months.

Neither would I. Mine are 21 and 18. How the time flew by.
I'll get back to working on the truck eventually.
Put them to work on the honey do list and work on the truck :thumb: I thought that's what kids were for right?
I have a 67' RSSS Camaro that has been waiting for me to finish it for 22 years Tom, your doing just fine:rofl:
Lol there you go. As long as you finish it before you're so old and senile that your kids take away your drivers license you're good to go!

Just so you all dont think Im bullshitting you:
shop (rebuild sill, new windows, paint, landscaping) Still have to trim out the windows, but they look ok as they are. Id like to put up vinyl siding one day.
deck (Roni refinished it -- took her a month b/c Michigan weather doesnt cooperate much)
New sidewalk that Roni has wanted for five years (first time we've ever laid concrete -- be gentle in your assessments of our skills)
Plus, I had to rebuild the lower part of the wall and sill plates ^^^ of the garage, and lift it up 2". (the wood is 90+ yrs old and was completely rotted away) , then paint the garage interior. Ugh. Still have to finish the exterior, as you can see. Added new LED garage lights. Those are nice.
Took a fall Thurs night, twisted my ankle up pretty bad and hurt my knee. Had an ankle brace on Friday, so that was a wasted day (called into work -- they were not happy). Took us three hours to pour the walk today, and I found out my 18 y/o daughter can finish concrete pretty good, considering it was all of our's first time. Now to a bit more landscaping. Saturday the 17th is coming quick....
