  5. I do the 14 hour day routine.

    And I don't know if I'll ever have time to give to my "projects" again. Frame looks sweet...

    I work offshore for six months a year, so I guess I could work seven days a week when I'm home. But I don't. Got a wife and three year old daughter who need a little affection and company occasionally.

    When that 3 year old stands in the doorway, with them big brown half asian eyes, asking: "daddy you finished in you garage yet, come in and play with me" It's usually all over and the garage is locked [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Haystack, looks like you already are, and it looks good too.

    I must take the day off though,

    told the wife I would spend the day with her,

    I will but it aint gunna be easy,

    nothing really big or special, just that I know all those guys and haven't seen them since I moved.

    In between changing diapers, playing horsey, and working 50-60 hours a week at my bill paying job. I wouldn't have it any other way...

    It's really nice to see a group from WI on this board.

    <font color="red">Morrisman,
    Nice kid. I know exactly where you are coming from. I have a grandaughter that can do that to me (and another on the way)

    Hot rodding is an important thing in my life but it isn't the only thing. It will always take a back seat to family.

    Unfortunately I'm working right now at midnight. Of course in Austin, I'm just happy to be working. I also juggle my kids (year old daughter and 9 year old son),wife,school, writing, carving tikis and working on my underground hip-hop project(yes-a trad kustomizer into hip-hop but I listen to everything...).
    My mother-in-law has the audacity to say I sleep too much and she's semi-retired and cooks all day.
    Whatever.... [​IMG]
