guys on the board....what's shaking? I'm stuck in Tulsa in an f'in ice storm. :smiley5:
Hey Jamie. I'm at home looking at cabinets, counter tops and floor tiles on the internet. It's pretty cold here, but no ice yet. Tomorrow is supposed to be really shitty out. No ice storm, but shitty none-the-less.
Tile and Cabinets.....right on, the lookin' is easier than the finishin' in my experience.
I totally gutted and rehabed our master bath a couple of years ago....big job, but it came out nice.
Ice is supposed to be less tomorrow, but still in the 20's I think......but 50 on Saturday. :smiley5:
No gutting for me. That's the contractor's job. I would do it, but I don't have the time anymore. I started on new career path(with my father in-law and brother in-laws) and I'll be working 6 days a week 10-12 hours a day. I just started yesterday, so far so good.
Weather is getting damned crazy these days.Quote:

Congrats and best wishes!!! Contractors, good ones, are pretty hard to find.
Right on Will!! I'm finishing off a padron mad. at the moment and winding down as well. Having a 7up instead of beer though.Quote:

True. However its supposed to switch into ice tomorrow or something.
That's the shitmess that logan37 was talking about.
So, you're stuck in Tulsa? How'd you get stuck?
60-72 hours a week? Sheesh. Let me know how you feel at the end of the week!Quote:

Won't run out of smokes, will you?:smiley3:
Hey, lemme ask ya, what do you think about La Aroma de Cuba cigars?
I have an urge to buy some on a hunch (& a CA link Rich posted a few weeks ago)
Will
I like both the old and new blends. The new one, edicion especiale is by Pepin. I smoke them once in a while.Quote:

I think we found a good one. He came highly recommended by my uncle. He had his kitchen done by this guy and it came out nice. And since that's what I need done... Just waiting on his estimate(should have it tomorrow).Quote:
