Re: Anyone ever get a little distracted?

I got a similar problem. I get projects done, just not projects on the truck.

Here is this years time sink:

Before:


As of this weekend:


But now it just snow balls. The landscaping is almost done and now the fence looks like crap. (Guess who is building a fence next)

Then the front yard looks great, but the back looks like a landmine went off.

WOW!

I'll bet your neighbors loved that! Looks great! My neighbor got pissed at me (not literally, we get along great) after I finished my porch, he said his wife won't stop bugging him to redo theirs now

I know what you mean, I started a full blown, every room remodel on our house in 2009. We got a new roof from a hail storm! Back deck and front porch done, and every room in the house is done except the computer room & closet, and upstairs hallway. I'm sooooooooooo close. Hope to finish up the inside over the next few winter months!

I have a crate engine, 3.5/5 drop kit, AND power steering setup for the 67 waiting to go on. Crate and drop kit were bought a year ago, PS was about 5 years ago...

Since I'm new to the board, I spend too much time reading other guys build threads and message board questions and answers. LOL
