It was like that . No idea but I aināt taking it down. LoL just went over it with cement board. I just discovered this friggin Go board @ Loweās like 1/3 the weight man. Iām gonna use it for my bathroom this summer. Slym⦠itās my first pan ever bro. LoL never done one before. A plumber friend quoted me $3,500 to do the pan, I was to just do all the demo and tile work and then he f****** ghosted me. I originally charged dude 15k he pay for the materials. It went to 20 w my plumbing work. Iām water testing right now, worked out gr8 as I have a TV to go hang and then a shower head to change out today. I canāt leave a condo without getting 2 more jobs man. No one wants to deal with parking downtown but if you get in with the right ppl, workers, maintenance, tip front desk Iām treated like a tenant man. I brought a front desk girl a rose for her birthday last week, got it at 7-Eleven for $2. LoL Iām telling you it works to be corny.
It wasnāt all that bad to build out BUT the floor is post tension cable so I couldnāt chip * really* shhhh I took down about 2 inches. LoL but Iām a week behind schedule because the plumber said heād be there Tuesday and then Friday last week. Screwed me . I know he didnāt want to deal with it cuz I didnāt pull a permit. The only thing changing was the drain by 4 inches. Whatever!! Iām doing it all in subway tile, I started that while I was waiting for him. But Iāll do it again, not that hard at all.
Howās life without rice burners treating you Prey⦠I know I feel bad making a once a year presence but Iāve just been swamped. Still no excuse not to find time to grow. Its getting kind of itchy - I tried month back or so but killed em all. LoL
What do you think, another 10k miles or so? LoL
They sure are pretty!!!
Iām sure you have some kind of project going on. Hey donāt you have a bad ass Tacoma TRD Pro or some TRD edition? I got to get a work truck and everyone says tacomas are it.
This is my latest job. Finished it yesterday. Just a facelift. New counter top with vessel sink with faucet, new lighting , removal furdown, and wallpaper, skim, texture and paint. I changed the front faca board on it too. Updated shapes.
I didnt want to repopcorn⦠i told them no. Lol
I did one similar to this. My house had a wood floor. I built it out of wood, set the drain up a little bit and had an old boy that did nothing but custom shower pans. He did it with tarpaper and tar. I think thatās mostly lost trade anymore. He rolled up with a tar kettle behind his truck had it done in a couple hours. then I floated it all and then tiled over that. I hired some guys to do the tile, they said they need to go get some sand and weāre gone for four hours and expected me to pay them. They got the sand five minutes from the house. Needless to say, I got very proficient at tile.

Bro I did one just like that except I went gray to White. face lift only, except I painted the existing vanity, walls & door. Same floor almost⦠LoL
I canāt do wallpaper man I got a really good guy though
Appreciate the looking out but my wife be BS if a care package came I think⦠LoL if she doesnāt know its ok but I couldnāt explain QP appearing out of no wheres. But ya itās been a little hectic - I honestly thought I was going to just take small jobs hanging TVs fixing blinds putting up artwork that kinda crap. donāt get me wrong I still do a lot of little shit but I sneak it in between these big jobs. Iām painting a condo on Jupiter Island like 1 mile from Tigers place. Seems Ike so many of my clients are big ass contractors. This guy named Anderson owns Andercorp out of Gulfport MS. They build casinos and hospitals and he said it cost him 12k to fly a crew down and put them up for 2 or 3 days to paint the place so why not have me do it for half that. Iām luckily in tight with like 3 realtors, thatās the ticket man. Just dumb luck is all. I had no idea every client they sell a place to wants it fixed up or atleast painted. Dumb friggin luck is all⦠just fell into my lap. LoL
Yes i have a crazy over powered tacoma! Like 460hp superchargedā¦de-governed and it will go 142mph. It would go faster but only if the transmission gear ratios were higher. At 4:88 and 37" tires on a 9" lift i can only squeak out 142.3mph as of last test run. I do have some long tube headers and an aluminum crossflow radiator to install next. But were gonna pushing close to 500hp and that 3.4l v6 will not handle that kind of power without forged internals. Mines an offroad rig for overlanding not really racing. I crashed a 2004 tacoma that i used to autocross and thats how i crashed it. I put it over a wall at 120mph on the last lap! I was low on fuel and i usually dont race below an 1/8th of a tankā¦But i was sure i could do it. Well the rear tires broke loose at 120 on the last turn and i could not get it back it was swinging to fast to the right and i tried to save it but there wasnt much room and clipped the wall and the kicked me up in the air and boom thats all i remember.
Hereās my money pit. 17k for the truck and 50k in mods and neccessaries! You know the accessories you need. And farkles! The fun stuff that Functions and sparkles! Heres my wrecked tacoma.
My current project is this little mazda3s i scored for 5k and it has 59k miles on it. I just lowered 3" on coil overs. Added cross drilled and slotted rotors front and next generation carbon fiber pads⦠serviced all the fluids. Added 8" wide 18" racing revolution wheels. Riding on some cooper zeons rs3-g1ās in size 21545r18. Now this little car tears up the corners! Rear brakes and rotors are on the way here tomorrow. Gonna put on a borla exhaust and enonen stereo system and a cold air intake. And ill drive it with a for sale sign on it and see if i can get 11k for the car or ill just drive it. I have 5 cars and 3 are for sale now. Im looking for a corolla gr or a 2012 mazda speed3 turbo.
I took it to work to mount the wheels.
I put Borla cat back on mine when I first got it. I put the K&N intake in first then played with a chip for a bit too. LoL Then I came back to reality, quit being stupid with a V6 ya know. Well itās nice to see you so grounded & slowing down since your bike days . LoL
I didnāt know you had that much fun with the Tacoma, supercharger for real! I can envision you rock crawling for some reason.
Thatās my weekly check in for today. Be good, keep it green all!
Yeah i always liked to soup or suāp up anything with an engine. Id like to find a lower milage 2013 mazda speed3 for around $8k but there fetching like $10k for around 100k miles. 65k miles is like $14-18k still its nuts!
Iām the same way. I donāt have any imports but I do have a 13 Ram 5.7 I picked up about 7 months ago Iāve been slowly doing things too, āslowlyā only because itās been at the dealer for 4 months , damn service contract jerking me around. , finally got everything approved and getting fixed lol. , my previous f150 had a lot of work done also intake exhaust, rims (22ā Foose) engine tune , tint kenwood excelon 2 10ā Rockford hx2 2k watts kicker replacements for stock , had the f150 7 yrs was time for a change and I like the hemi power. K&N cold air and magnaflow muffler that need replaced , blew the internal baffle loose hard accel kinda cold she let out a little boom boom between 1-2,2-3 shifts dumping some fuel into those cylinders ![]()

Locoooo!
Well That happens. So are you gonna drop a couple beans anytime soon?
Iām ashamed to say O I have been quite the poser with the growing of the Mary Jane mi amigo! A pretty lame attempt on my last foorah⦠is that a word it sounds rightā¦hurrah maybe?? . Maaan! As I exhale! LoL
But yes man ⦠bigger and better. I have to install a mini split in the shed ⦠Gotta run 240 & insulrate her good like, sure enough! I did finally redid the roof round Christmas X. Summer was costing me $300/month running a window shaker last 3 years in Florida summer! LoL
But imma try and drop some beans in the drink in honor of you - busting my cookiesā¦
well deserved Iāll admit! LoL but seriously itās always gr8 to hear another old man u know is still kicking and growing. LoL how go the adventures in O-man Land?
2 days in a row⦠I want a GD prize! I betcha them other grow chats award prizes! LoL
Okay ok okā¦itās done. They made a splash! We are calling them " bottom of the junk drawer kush" !
My honest guess is a Sniper special ⦠Dementia maybe? Look what I can do ma!!
I have so many gd seeds rolling around in that drawer! LoL
I really really feel like this is the one! In other news - I just got back from Belle Glade, 1 1/2 hour drive to get my kid a mini bike. Says he wanted a fixer upper to call his own. I paid $100 for this pos, what did he pay into it u ask. Uār funny for asking! . He says heās going to put a predator motor in it. What say you ??? Over and under is 1 year.
Heās already too big for that thing!!
HaPPYyyyyeee!!! Ya man he is⦠now heās got the Infiniti I35 and the bike the spoiled shit. According to my math he should get interested in one of them⦠statistically Speaking right? LoL the bike is actually on me - I told him if he got my lawn mower running Iād get him the bike. He ordered a carburetor on my Amazon account unbeknownst to me and changed it. Ofcourse he didnāt pay attention to the linkage and it ran full throttle until he came to me and confessed. LoL being a man of my word (gulp) ⦠Plus I made him drive most of the way to pick it up so thereās that being a 90 minute drive and all.
He does have to hold a pt job and pay his part of the car insurance though. I am serious about that part I will not cave on that promise. He gets his official license in September⦠Thatās 6 months after his b-day. Thatās how they do it down here, permit for 1 year then licensed. Iām getting old Hap! Not like you but closing in⦠ha ha
Youāre the best kid. Your sense of humor brings light into the room. No matter how dark it gets.
Give me a shout next week when you have a couple of free minutes. We need to do a quick catch up. ![]()

Hey i learned to drive a stick shift in the snow when i was 12. I got pulled over for the first-time when i was 14yr riding a 1981 suzuki gs450l model. It cost me $425 in 1983 i was only 14 and was sluffing school and walked by that bike and itnwas for sale. Some guy bought it for his son and his son didnt want it? I saved up all my newspaper route money and bought that black beauty. I only weighed 68lbs when i was 14. Best memories ever. My dad let me have it and those were good old memories of dad. Hell he got us a mini bike from the salvation army for $20 and we just adjusted the carb and brakes and it ran great.
