Tools!


Life is too short to stay in a job you hate. When I worked with students, I would often talk to them about what they wanted to study in college and my standard advise was this: If tomorrow morning you woke up to the sound of someone knocking at your door who was there to tell you that your long lost uncle just died and left you 10 billion dollars, what job would you select if you were still going to work everyday. I enjoy my job quite a bit (what other job allows you to fight, bluntly tell bad parents off, and drive really fast), but I work with some extremely disgruntled individuals on a daily basis. A couple of days ago I was speaking with one of those coworkers who was telling me how much they think our job sucks and how everything is so bad...blah blah blah. I proposed the 10 Billion Dollar Hypothetical to that person and it really got me thinking. What would I choose? I think I would work in the tool section of Sears.

Some More Previews





These are a few sneak peaks at the miniature house I am building my daughter for Christmas. It still has a long way to go. I will tell you one thing for sure, Santa has another thing coming if he thinks he is taking credit for this.

Attention Pot Growers:

If you make the less than wise decision to become a cultivator of cannabis here is a helpful hint - don't let it grow taller than the top of your fence dumbass!

  3. Rocking Motorcycle (that's right, I said Motorcycle)

  5. Baby Doll Bed

Lacking


Much of this blog is devoted to my constant effort for productivity such as growing food, repurposing old furniture into more up to date pieces, and the awkward adventures of a male sewing and baking stuff. However, as of the last 3 days I have nothing to report because I sat on my can and accomplished a big pile of squat. That's right, I spent the last three days straight watching the first season of Prison Break. I have to admit - I am truly satisfied with my progress.

Dragging...

15 hour work day is too much.
