Dinished shooting a boat today and am Out of There!
No more work this year.

I plan on doing some shopping, some drinking, and smoking meat.😎
If there’s any time between I might trim a couple trees. Oh, and there’s a gopher that needs killing.

May stop by @sintax place one afternoon with a bottle and beg to see this monster of a smoker he has.😂


Probably do some much needed wrenching on a couple of quads.

Feels pretty good knowing I don’t have to go to work any time soon. Almost like retirement🤔 only I have to go back next year🤨

Hope you truly get some down time and get some shit you want to get done.

This is the slowest time of the year for me, but I am still working.. no need to burn vacation when its slow.

BTW… I just fired up Weber… you might like that thread I just posted, since you in the BBQ mindset.

I'm slaving away like a chump, I have 2 big projects i'm trying to get across the finish line before the end of the year. After that, i'm taking some time off and heading out to the dez for some whiskey, guns and dirt bikes.

I wish. We should finish a little three bedroom condo rehab this week, then have a 2/1 in Solana Beach that needs to be by 1/1. Four of my guys are taking off for two weeks. LOL, good luck to me! My son will be assembling cabinets for days.

Not yet.
1 business trip next week and a total of 6 customer facing (in-person and remote) meetings next week.

Some of my 12/31 customers still have unused budget and I am going to do whatever it takes to get that budget before 12/22.

Basically called it quits on Dec 1st. Last week I went on a weeklong guys ski trip in Vail. Couple screw-off days at the office this week. Three company holiday parties and several friends/family parties now till Christmas. I'll dick around in the garage, I need to adjust the suspension on my car, raise the rear to fit some meatier rear tires that I'm having put on next week. I do have a "honey-do list" coming my way for sure... After Christmas double trips this season. Christmas day to the 30th in New York City and then 2nd-8th in South west Florida.

Not sure when my last day off was. I'm trying to finish a couple projects up before hand surgery next Thursday. Then try to take 2 or 3 weeks off.

Decided to wrap my year up early with a vacation. I'm taking the 29th off for a long weekend.

We're busier this year than a two pecker billy goat, lol. Will be working all the way up to Friday, Dec 22nd. Then the drinking commences. I got a bottle of Garrison Brothers with my name on it :D

I've got 1 job left. It'll be nice to get it done and collected on before the end of the year.
