Umm am I in the right thread? Think I stumbled into the women's section.

Best one I've had in years. My old job barley allowed me to travel home to see the fam. My new one allowed me to stay the weekend and help dad out with a few chores. I had a blast and haven't laughed that much in a long time. Speaking of laughs, my girlfriend/ fiancé was standing in the living room talking to my dad and me and out of no where rips a great fart. It was legendary.

Glad you had a great thanksgiving with your family, and i bet your fiancé got red in the face when she ripped that air biscuit in front your pops[emoji23][emoji23]

Dad is doing great. He's never had a gym membership believe it or not so I don't see him getting one now that he's in his 60s with a deteriorating spine. They are in the process of selling the park that I've talked so much about. it's killing them. We bought the land across the street though and are in the process of building storage units for boats, campers, etc.. That's a business I think my dad can handle and it won't be near as stressful. It should run itself

That's good, and if your dad can stay active to some degree that will be a help.

Oh so sad to hear your family is selling that park. I remembered you didn't have any time to manage it. Hopefully it will be in good hands with a new owner.

Yeah the buyers that we have lined up live by the camp which is a big plus. My folks live over an hour from the camp so that's what made it hard on them. Part of the deal is that they let my folks, sister and me keep our Camper spots rent free. Basically we will own 3 spots and they will own hotel, store and park. Umm.. We haven't told them that part yet. Lol hopefully they will go for it cause we've been in those spots for over 15 years. Shouldn't be a problem cause each spot has its own meters for utilities so it will be easy just to give us our bills every month. I just bought some lotto tickets though and if I hit the big time I'm quitting my job and I will buy the camp. Lol it's always been my dream to live up there and be a fishing guide.

Good deal! Your parents would like that and maybe this would be good.

Lol hope you do end up buying the camp someday and letting some good people run it for you. Would not be a bad way to retire

Well that was our biggest problem. My folks have big hearts. We finally got some real good help up there but we pay them to much and we should lay some of them off this time of year but my folks never do. Anyway it's fixing to be someone else's problem and we will just sit back and enjoy the place like we used to. I've been looking at the new Tracker boats. I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on one come income tax. Shhh don't tell my fiancé. Lol she totaled my jeep a few months back and I need a new toy.

Well, at least your parents can retire now if they choose, and at least you all can still get to enjoy it.

Ouch, never let women drive your toys lol. Well hopefully you get a settlement from that. If you get a boat bet trukker will be right at home on it lmao

Oh I already received my insurance check from that. I payed off some credit cards. Lol wish I could post a pic but I won't. She called me while I was at work and said " I wrecked your Jeep". I asked if she was ok and how bad was it. She then sends me a pic of my jeep completely upside down. Yep leave it to a TX women to totally flip a jeep when the speed limit was only 30 mph. She's fine and my credit card companies love me again so all is well.

 

[MindlessWork]

Wow lucky. Good things didn't turn out much worse.

 

[kap73]

Well the manuel labor might have a lot to do with it for that long. If you sat at a desk then they might not be like that. If so I just got a job lifting shit for 8 hrs. So we will see how it turns out. LOL

Hey jb this is what i do day in day, this one we are doing now is a little more hectic than normal with all the double timbers and shit but still a rough gauge.

 

[MindlessWork]

Commercial construction is your field I take it, @kap73...that has to be really demanding work setting up those scaffolds and forms for concrete.

geez I would say hectic is the right word indeed. lol. So you would defintaly need to be in some shape. And it definitly increases the shape you are in already, hence the calves. Probably takes a crazy toll on you lower back. LOWER BACK PUMPS.

I've worked in refineries and power plants the majority of my life. I've got a lot of respect for guys in your profession. Y'all are a bunch of hard working guys that perform a dangerous job. You definitely can't have a fear of heights to do what you do

 

[OdieM]

Well would you look at that. I'm Awesome thanks Millard
