The Project Pad

being out of town for long periods puts a damper on things for sure. then coming home and "getting" to work 13 days straight then one day off then 6 on one off 6 on one off etc really doesnt allow much to get done. but i do werk as i can. and its not all car shit either.

so i had the weekend scheduled off for the whole year; friday thru monday for a race on sunday. but, knocked myself out with a fence post driver, concussion and 20 stiches (to the skull, 4 internal to sew the liner back together and 16 outside) and they recommended i dont race. so i didnt. i worked on this car saturday (incident friday) then finished the chicken compound and mansion sunday then back to the car monday and right back to work.





















































yes that white spot is my skull. head CT scan clear. 20 stitches. concussion. lost about 45 minutes from the house to urgent care and from urgent car to ER. no bueno.

OUCH!!!!! how many stitches!

4 to sew the skull liner back together and 16 outside.

fence post hammer to the face. must have misjudged it and pulled up a smidgeon too high. slammed down and BOOOOOM right between the eyes then on to the good shoulder. soooo much blood. 5+ hrs ER, head CT scan (concussion without (much) loss of consciousness), and now twin black eyes 3 days later.

Ouch, at least you gots eggs!

yup. Chicken Mansion is complete.

oh yeah i forgot. ran the car on a stock trans the other weekend. first pass 9.69 @ 148.

Ouch! That's almost tough to look at. That'll leave a nice battle scar

Gets better and better.





Picked up a big white cock for my redheads... sorta like how I roll .

I don't know how you keep your sanity with a rooster around. Every time I've ever slept in a place near a rooster, I am about one nerve fiber away from grabbing my gun and or bludgeoning stick and beating the damned thing to a pulp.

he starts around 4:45 and i have been up since 4:00 so no big deal.

Nice run, always enjoy your updates.

So the official one week egg collection was 37 eggs. To this week's date we are at 26 eggs in four days. I have the majority of the compound covered with some leftover geotech material from a job and 3/4 inch PVC for arches. The face wound is healed up I lost feeling above it and I'm having issues inside with a scrambled brain having to do with equilibrium balance and vertigo. But other than that it's all good.

Eggs. Farm Fresh Free Range fed. There is nothing like it.



And this poor car sits out in the weeds collecting dirt like nothing else :(

i had a rooster until it got about 2 months old.....i blasted it with my 12 gauge and gave it to my dogs. They were happy, I was happy.

Catch up. I gonna eat all these Martys eventually.



Some thin tried to get at my girls !!!!



Venting











Love this place.



5 hours and 5 beers gets me here. Plumb level and square. Soon I can get rid of the pop up. The sad part is I have had the 9th and the 23rd off for this MONTH so far. And I still get shit done.





And today was chassis car day











And I eat well also. 1.61 pounds of ribeye.



Last night was 1.25 pounder.

And this makes us current at 9-16-15.

it is time that i get serious about lifting again and get into better shape. 825 pounds of iron, exercise station, bowflex, etc ought to do it. i am MUCH MORE MOTIVATED having it right here at home in front of my face as i will not take time out to go to a gym. at all.

had this thing opened back up to drain the pocket of infection inside.

Sweet Bonco!

Love the diversity!

its just a few days of my life, i dont JUST do the car(s) i do so much more.....

Jetta rear brakes. Had the parts for like almost 2 years? Finally took the time.



Launch time.



Shutoff switch stuff.











Tripped on the unfinished deck in the dark. Oh joy. Got more banged up but this is the best haha









And I am tired of breaking 01E stock trans every time I go out so this goes back together now.
