Home Improvement

25 Apr
The house that i live in now is my first home. I have been in it for a little over 3 years now. So i have had this problem in the bathroom where the liner over the tub had gotten water in between it and the tub. It was very squishy. Also the panel that was put up next to the window had pulled away and water would run down it. Well some friends of mine that do construction come over and helped me frame in the window. Then i spent the rest of the day pulling the wall out of the bathroom. I have several areas in the house that i want to remodel, and i chose the bathroom to do first. I have some pictures that i will post when i get them off the camera, tomorrow night i want to go get the sink and the toilet. But i am not sure i might get them later in the week. I need to go pick up the flooring that i want to use in the room. Also i called to have the plumber come in and do some work on the plumbing. There's more to the story than this, but this is all i'm going to post for now.

Getting Ready to Ride

15 Feb
So there i was out in my garage trying to get my motorcycle to start. I should have had stuff done to it to keep it over the winter. But i did not. That is a lesson learned. It took me a while to get it started. I had to take the battery off and put a trickle charger on it. I had to do that twice. Each time i tried to start the bike i ended up draining the battery. I should have taken better care of it over the winter i know. So anyway i take the battery off and i lose one of the screws inside the bike. No big deal i think, i will just take this plate off and reach in and grab the screw. Well that was not so smart either. I ended up loosing another nut. So i decided that i would cut my loses and just fish it out with something that i could rig up. Well i recovered the nut, but i still had the screw to go. Well i finally got the screw captured in a little contraption of mine, but i pulled to hard and the screw went into a deeper hole. I thought then that i was totally out of luck. So i decided that i would just go buy another screw. So i went to my local Lowe's and purchased some screws that were the same size. Well i ended up loosing one of them in the bike as well. So i had this idea about a tool that had a little claw on the end. Well i talked to a few friends and low and behold there is such a thing. I don't want to be riding around with a bunch of lose screws in my bike. Since Menards is close to where i work i took a quick trip to it and i found one. So tonight when i go home hopefully i will have time before the shooting i will be able to fish the screws out. Well i will post more l8er.

Weekend with best friend

26 Oct
Well i got to spend the weekend with my one of my best friends. She came down to visit... well kinda. I had to meet her half way, but we had a good weekend. She has grown up allot from when we used to hang out. Also i ran into other friends that i have had in the past.... it was really weird. Like all these people that i know from way back were popping up. Well it was cool. I need to e-mail my old high school buddy i ran into his parents the other day. I also saw some people that i used to work with like 10 years ago. Some of them i keep thinking about, i want to talk to them more, but i just did not have the time right then. Oh well. It happens.

I got a new little bible. I needed it for when i go to church and help with the Jr. High. I didn't like caring around the bible that i have. It's kinda large and looks like the Family Bible that is sitting on the living room table or somewhere out where people can see it. At least mine does not have the dust on it like those usually do. :D I really like the young kids that are in my small group. They are really cool, and funny. They all have great potential. I hope they work for there dreams.

Well work has keep me busy. I have several projects that i need to finish. I hope to get one of them done before the weekend so i don't have to work on it on Saturday. I have a project on the side that i have been working on at home. It's kinda cool, but i have not been able to devote any time to it in the last two weeks. I hope to be able to work on it again this weekend. It's nice not having a girlfriend/wife/family during this time. I can get the things done that i would not be able to do if i did have any of the listed above. But when it's time, i can kick everything aside. I am sure that i will know when i have meet the one.
I have not been married, and when i do get married i want it to be for life. I think everyone goes into it with that goal, but i think some think if it get's to tough i will just get out. I don't want someone that thinks that at all. We know tough times will come, but we will work together and make it. I know of few marriages that have lasted years. I want mine to be one of them. Quitting is not an option. Oh well. With God all things are possible.

Well keep caring on... till next time.
