Vacation
 

Since the ***** factor at the other site has gone off the chart and some anonymous ***** deleted my thread, then banned me forever (lol) I'll post it here and update it. It's been a hell of a ride for the past two months.

• Baby Doll sold her practice: high cotton.
• She retired the next day.
• Then we left for Paris, spent two days there, then a week on a 5-star river cruise touring the Sone, then the Rhone. Then a high speed train to spend a few days in Barcelona.
• Before we left we put the city house on the market and it sold to the first viewer while we were in Paris, for full asking price. (I set it at the top of the range our Realtor, Gigi Babe, gave us.) No contingencies and no inspections. Looks like the work I did painting and cleaning the garage helped. (Those who thought otherwise were wrong as usual lol.) I also had a half-page list describing the "hidden" features': stuff that pussies don't understand like full masonry fireplaces, full masonry foundation walls, high efficiency heat pumps, reinforced retaining walls, permanent stairs to the super insulated attic...
• Moved my licensed professional engineering office to our vacation home.
• Bought Baby Doll a new computer: an HP all-in-one. Very cool. Now have that and both printers set up with wifi (no wires).
• New cable internet instead of the slow DSL crap.
• Got the Fiat Spider running, sent it over to Mike's for final painting before I drive it up to the new place.
• Moved my workshop and the furniture that we decided to keep. Sold/ donated/ trashed the rest.
• Got the antique Persian rug that my mother gave me "bathed" with new fringe and minor repairs; moved up to our new home. Switched around some rugs and now my 64 TBird is parked on a rug that Baby Doll deemed unworthy of her royal standards.
• I'm slowly organizing my garage. Now that everything is in one place I can determine what can be trashed. Multiple dumpster runs. Very cool that they recycle mixed metals here. My vintage turntable, 2 feet of vinyl and rebuilt Advance speakers (serial #74 and 75) are now set up and playing. New heavy duty shelves with a small fridge full of beer and sparkling water underneath (acoustically isolated).
• Now rewiring my Rockwell drill press.

Life just keeps getting better.

Well there is that one guy

Did I just step in dog shit again?

No, it's worse than that.

Sounds like you're off to a good start here too.

Wow special welcome back thread.:rofl:

Well, at least GTOgay knows where to get his YadKarreNNN fix.

Wait, that means they both will be here :banghead:

Yes, yes you did.

:rofl:

Wait till you get your new name. :D

I smell what both of you are stepping in and I don't think a water hose and a stick can be used to clean your shoes off this time.

Great, more people like the rest of us

Lifestyles of the rich and famous, when is Robin Leach coming by for the cavier crossaints??

Says this two weeks ago: Then starts a thread announcing he can't stay away. :lol:

Go try to find another forum to get banned from. It seems like you collect them like badges of honor.

So, bye. Again.

Who rang the douchebag dinnerbell ?
