Title: 1 step forward, 2 steps back.....
Post by: jim_de_hunter on August 07, 2013, 05:37:49 PM
been that way all week.  Allotted 2 hours to powerwash the garage before paint - spent 8 hours with a water jet removing 50 years of paint.  Allotted 2 hours to tuck-point the block garage - took 8 hours and another 15 lbs of quick set.  Started to R&R the tires, brake and clutch lines and rear pads on the Blue Monster and decided to mow real quick before the rain got here - now the Blue Monster and TWO mowers are in pieces in the garage waiting on parts from Amazon.


I think I'll take a nap.

Sounds like an average day for me.  Remember my motto:

"The man who does nothing, does nothing wrong." ;)

The man who does nothing, does nothing wrong works the other way around, too.  :chugbeer:

Whenever I start a project and my wife asks me how long it's going to take, she doubles the time I give her and more often than not, she's right.     :o

Don't tell her that I said that.

Don't worry, she already knows.

Doing nothing is difficult because you don't know when to stop.

So what is the measure of success? When do you know when you have properly accomplished nothing?

Guess here, when you wake up in a Cheetos orange drool puddle?

I'm thinking that this would be a good measure of success if you're a dog...    :)
