Someone bought a new office and has been breaking someone else's back to get it ready for an open house this weekend.... You know, fun stuff like sheetrock, laying flooring, building cabinets and all those things that an engine builder LOVES to do!

So, there is no way I can meet the deadline- BUT it is HER fault!

I guess she liked your sheetrock work in the rental so much... She hired you again... ;)

LOL...

Yeah, I did the sheetrock work too damn good... Next thing you know I'll be building cabinets for the kitchen!

BUT unlike most women she works just as hard (or harder) on the projects than I do!

I used to hate woodwork, now after about 5K worth of tools it's not so bad any more and certainly better than paying someone to screw it up!

amen to that. i've about had it with having to beg to pay people to do a job right. i told my wife we need to fire the lawn care guys because they just can't seem to do a simple job right and her comment was "well, at least these ones show up when they are supposed to". customer service has just gone out the window when you are rationalizing people just showing up to do a half-a$$ job.

but i am going waaaayyyyy off subject. get that car on the road!

Beth's open house for the new office was this past weekend, so thats one more project off the plate... This weekend we'll finish the rental property remodeling and that'll be done as well (after over a year of work off and on!)

Then I just have 7 big assed Oak and Poplar trees to saw up for firewood out of the front yard and we;ll be able to get back to work on the car...

BUT len just gothis SCCA license, so we'll be losing one weekend a month to go spank the asses off of some Mazda and British cars with a little ole 1800cc TIV in a 914 :-)

So, how's the final week going? :p

massIVe 79 vert July 19th 2007 14:45

Final week huh? Guess Jake better get started then! Cause he hasn't even touched the engine yet :mad:

wrenchnride247 July 19th 2007 19:28

Well, from what I seen last week he did "touch" your engine... to move it out of the way to build two other engines :eek: . Sorry Beth, my smart a$$ side got the best of me for a second. ;)

NO_H2O July 20th 2007 03:00

I heard that those two engines were BIC's to boot.

massIVe 79 vert July 20th 2007 10:06

What's worse than pushing them aside to work on something else is when he "borrows" (aka steals) my new parts to put them on something else :mad:

Massive Type IV July 24th 2007 07:08

We have a break from SCCA events for a couple months since we decided not to hit Nashville on labor day....

So this weekend we'll try to finish the rental property and we can get back on the bug...

wrenchnride247 July 24th 2007 17:16

Schweeet!!! :) can't wait!
