Sending my husband to the store to buy those things for me...
(the ultimate expression of true love) ;)
Jeez, I suspect the day you no longer need em is going to be just as big a highlight for your husband. Ruthie hasn't needed them for over a year but she keeps some around just so she doesn't jinx things. It sounds like you might send your long suffering hubby after them long after the need is gone just to show your intense love.Lee
I remember when I was a sophmore in highschool. My dad and I stopped in the store to pick up some groceries. We were in the checkout and he turns to me and says in front of everyone with no sense of modesty. "Hey go back and get your mom some of those kotex things I think it's about time." I love my dad. But it was really put to the test that day.
The final answer is maybe. And that's definate.

A carp should never have to buy hearing from a customer..."that didn't look so hard, why did you charge me so much"?
Creation arises, is sustained for awhile, and then things change. That’s the dance.
Or "I could do it myself, I just don't have time" ouch.
..."that didn't look so hard, why did you charge me so much"?
At which point you turn and say "Because it took years of learning, built upon skill,patience, and perseverance, to make it look that easy....the great ones always make it look easy!"
Then ask for payment in full!

... and don't forget the cost of buying the tools, the cost of replacing hte tools, the cost of fixing the tools... all part of your overhead.

Andy, I was just at your site.
It looks great and reads very well.
The straightfoward layout is easy to use. Clicking on the pictures to enlarge and return is a nice "smooth" feature too.
The site also imparts a good sense of you. A look at what you can do and who you are.
Good luck with it....Pete
Thanks Pete...goes appreciated.Creation arises, is sustained for awhile, and then things change. That’s the dance.
If ever I'm asked, with an insinuation of being overcharged... "Wait a minute...how long did it take you to do this?!!"
I answer with how old I am."Fifty two years"
I like that, it sums it up nicely too...Buic
Another good thing about getting older: You don't even blink at something that embarassed the hell out of you as a kid. Like your parents!
True dat.

Nah, no poop for me, I've brought quite a few gals into the trades. In fact, I was the first company in Colo Spgs to hire a female for site work, it was 1973, 74. I've mentored several since and find they are really good at jobs where the strength issue is not a biggie. Lee
Me too! The gals are espedcially good at painting and details. They ask better questions thn guys, and pay atention

If girlbuilder reads this...
"They ask better questions thn guys, and pay atention"
that was what I meant to say with the comment I made to you in the "HO likes screws " thread.
which was...
"leave it to a woman to wonder whats really going on at the heart of the situation :P"
see no offense intended :D
Could somebody adress a post to me in this thread so I can make it go away from my notifications???
