aurfalien Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 (edited) Awesome.Charlie LarkinI work with ppl like that as I do IT for CG. Without exception the artists are all very creative, hard working and have this sort of spirit. Lotta DIY-ers and they do cool stuff. It's inspirational to work with em and I'm happy to be able to do so. Edited January 23, 2016 by aurfalien
Tom Geiger Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 Dad builds treehouse in bedroom...http://www.boredpanda.com/daughter-bedroom-fairy-forest-radamshome/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=BPFacebookYep, dad of the year, for like a decade.The practical side of me asks... what happens if you need to move?
aurfalien Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 The practical side of me asks... what happens if you need to move?Well, if in SoCal they ain't. Property taxes alone will keep one locked in there home. Its not so much the tax rate but the % on say a mil dollar 2,000 sq foot 30 year old fixer upper etc...
James2 Posted January 23, 2016 Author Posted January 23, 2016 (edited) The practical side of me asks... what happens if you need to move?The practical side of me say, she's gonna out grow it in three months! Less then the time spent building it. Edited January 23, 2016 by James2
unclescott58 Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 I'm very happy that I'm not having to share weather with the east coast this weekend. In we're getting a January thaw. As I write this, my digital thermometer just showed 30 degree Fahrenheit. The sun is shining. What a difference from the last two weekends. And it looks like it will be staying like this for the next few days. Life is good. I can stop searching for my gun. ? I'm happy again.I am sorry for all of you guys out east.
Ace-Garageguy Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 I'm pleased I can get it up to 52 degrees in my house. It's much better than the 27 degrees it is outside.
Olskoolrodder Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 Got to play in the snow in the FJ Cruiser for the 2nd day in a row (and was able to help a few people throughout the day who'd stuck themselves and needed a tug...priceless that 2 of em were modded Jeeps and the FJ went right passed them to yank em free,hahaha!)
slusher Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 Snow all melted today in the sun. Cold 14 but going to start warming up. I feel for everyone affected by the blizzard...
Crazy Ed Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 Today marks 4 weeks without a cigarette. Hang in there Jim. Wife and I quit ~11 years ago and haven't regretted it a single day.
crazyjim Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 I'm trying Ed. Very seldom do I get the urge for a butt and then I just grab a piece of celery to munch on. It's really not bad. I also joined a local gym to get some exercise.
James2 Posted January 24, 2016 Author Posted January 24, 2016 Today marks 4 weeks without a cigarette.Best way to quit is one at a time. Never light that next one. Toughest thing I ever did, twenty years ago.Good for you mate!
cobraman Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 Keep it up and good luck Jim ! More money for models and hopefully a longer life in which to build. : )

High octane Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 Today marks 4 weeks without a cigarette.Congrats, as today marks 10 years without a drink for me. Sure I have more money for models, but I really don't need anymore. Just LOTS of "motivation" to build what I have.
Agent G Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 4 years smoke free here!Stopped the drinking completely 12 years ago. I will now have a beer maybe once a month. Lost 60 pounds in the last two years as well. It's doable Jim, just keep at it my brother.G
crazyjim Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 I'm trying guys. It's not really as bad as I thought it would be. And I've stopped coughing already.
slusher Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Best way to quit is one at a time. Never light that next one. Toughest thing I ever did, twenty years ago.Good for you mate!Great advice i threw them away 22 years ago in march. Hang in there Jim..
Scott Colmer Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Today marks 4 weeks without a cigarette.I quit too when I met my wife 10 years ago. It was hard. The urge hangs around, but gets weaker. Taking a few slow deep breaths helps. Hang in there. It's a good decision.Scott
High octane Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 It's been over 31 years since I've quit smoking and I've never regretted it. Your body will love you for quitting smoking.
Ace-Garageguy Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 I got paid, in full, for my last two months of work, and I get to take a few days off before starting the next project. Whoopee !!!

All this snow and my Tracker is sitting in the garage with the roof still off from summer! And I let the registration lapse, it was due in December and as of January it qualifies for historic tags! (It's a 1991) I just haven't gotten around to filing the paperwork to get them... and of course Pennsylvania requires photos of the vehicle with the top UP for the filing! Nothing makes you feel old than when a car you bought new is 25 years old! So I missed this storm... the big 4x4 guys feel really stupid when I pull them out of the ditch with a puny little Geo Tracker that never, ever has gotten stuck! Edited January 26, 2016 by Tom Geiger

We had a '94 tin top 2 door,that thing was fun on wheels FWIW,yet to stick the FJ in the years we've had it,including trailing for the weekend,winter,mud,etc,it's locked at both ends with 33" Nittos. The best part of owning it? Driving through the more difficult line around the non-Rubicon Wrangler (you know the type...lift,tires,blingy wheels and big light bars and the belief they're unstuckable by the owners,and open diffs spinning freely,LOL!) to yank it free
aurfalien Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 My wonderful cup of Jose's Columbian this morning. About $13 for a 3 pound bag at Costco.
Agent G Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 I saw snow in the mountains yesterday.......................G
