|
Baring any last minute rejection issues we'd have to take care of, I got emailed that starting Monday I'm on "compensation time". They give us paid time off to recouperate after the major overtime (unpaid) grind they put us through. Its never enough IMO to make up for the things I've had to skip, but its something.
I get 6 weeks off this go around, the max they allow. We ended up doing 11 months of overtime, with the past 6.5 months being 6 days a week. Very tedious and grueling. I wish I could use the time whenever I chose but they need to schedual people to get going on the next project.
Anywho, it gives me time to get some honey-do's taken care of and take care of some website and Pointblank issues I've not had time to get to. Soooo happy to be done!

Great Balls for Fire!! Dallan, don't decompress to quickly. Enjoy some recoil therapy while you are at it.

Well Dallan with all that free time on your hands I'll send over my Honey-Do list for you.lol |
Good lord no... I'm already tired. Yesterday I packed the wheel bearings on the camp trailer and inspected the brakes while I had it apart, then I had to fix an exhaust leak in our ford Escape (put a new Y pipe in it a few weeks ago but it developed a leak at one of the socket joints). Today was electrical in the house, rewiring and fixing some fixtures that had issues. My wife wants a new front door (ok that one I agree with, the existing one is so old its shrunk and there are 1/8" gaps in the joints in places lol) so we went and looked some over at homedepot.
My first "for me" project I'm going to get to later this week is building a brand new reloading bench. Has to be less than 29" wide to get through the doors downstairs but that should be sufficent. Once thats done I can get some rooms cleaned up and organized. Cant start on that though till I clean up the garage, which I'll do tomorrow.

Sounds like you're still running on "project time"...
My loading bench top is 48" x 24" and has been sufficient.
