    i spend entirely too much time on this damn little box and i'm not getting anything done. it just dawned on me it's nearly one in the afternoon and i'm sitting here in my PJs staring at this screen and accomplishing NOTHING. at the very least i need to spend a couple days away from this thing (and the HAMB i'm afraid) so i can get myself into a regular routine that involves working in the garage and getting things accomplished. i had big plans for when i got laid off and i so far have'nt really implimented them and the HAMB has been a big part of the distraction. no offense to the HAMB or it's members as it has at other times been a great source of inspiration and motivation.
    i have work waiting to be done in the garage and bills that need paid and neither are getting done in here so it's time to disapline myself (something i've never been too good at).


    anyway, just thought i'd let you know so nobody is blowing up my PM box while i'm gone. i will still check my email everyday. just no surfin or HAMBin for a while, till i get into a routine in the garage.

    i'm out. see some of you setup day (thursday) at the DEEEETROIT Autorama...

    It's an easy trap to fall in to, isn't it?
    How about checking in, say on Friday nights or somethin'.
    At least keep us updated on what you're getting done!

    In your PJ's...at one in the afternoon?

    No excuse for that...especially if you've been laid off...that's a rut.

    Will power...will power...will power...get back into the correct rut of getting up at seven, working or trying to find work, lunch at lunch time, etc....just like you are working...nothing gets done in bed or in front of the computer!!!

    It's a bad habit to fall into...quit it!

    <font color="green"> I had the same problem.

    Went to the "HAMB-aholics" meetings and all.

    As you can see, I've fallen off the wagon. </font>

    Yeah - because sitting in Flint would bring in the money...LOL.
    He can't get a job - he makes more money being laid off from GM (subpay and unemployment) than he would at any job he could find at this time. He's got lotsa stuff to do in the garage...maybe YOU should come see US!
