I hate being a responsible adult :rant

My brake upgrades keep getting put on the back burner for home projects now that I got the condo. I never realized how expensive some of these home projects can be . . . its never ending . . . next up is new patio chairs & table :argue

There goes my brakes for another summer . . . maybe I should have planted pot instead . . . at least there would have been a pay back :lol :lol :lol

Anywho here's the after shots, imagine it without the flower beds there, pretty drab. Pics were taken from my home office balcony :confused:

I feel your pain. I have two houses that has to come before the bike does most of the time. Good job. :thumbup I'll be tackling a new roof on the garage and digging up around the foundation to fix a small water problem this august. My honey do list is getting bigger by the day.

I feel ya.....6 palm trees.....mulch.....sod......for the yard. A remodeled master bed in the house. Glass blocked windows in the shop.

I could have add some fun mods....but then I'd have less of a house and a place to conduct business.

You young guys are lucky....you get older and this thing called "priorities" creeps up on you....no fun.

ok ron, here are some more clues....a movie about her life was released in 2002, numerous books have been written about her short life. she dated bob dylan for a while, and it's rumoured some of his songs are about her. she was part of andy warhols 'factory' scene. and the biggest clue of all....the 'cult" wrote a song with her first name in the title.:secret:
