I kill ‘em all the time. I cracked the screen so I have been using it as an ipod too…..so i dropped a little mortar inside my pocket….and then I scratched the good front camera…..and then the charger stopped working….so I dropped some meurhatic acid to clean it…then finally windex cleaned it….about 6 weeks later…being today. In the process I rooted my phone so I can now program it proper and use the tether….I am a geek.

Who wants one of these?

I just finished and

Now I want some stone work like this.

Who missed work today?

I did. I guess a man should take a day off on St. Patty’s day….so now I am at the barbecue.

Still stoning…..figuratively…and actually.

Fuck~Up’s

So. We all F It up….at times….especially the hard times when you don’t want to. I know that….from experience….

But this completely careful cement pour was cancelled by rain….that of course we ‘all’ knew was on the way, but I thought of course I could beat it for ‘PayDay’.

Of course …

As you can imagine….

It rained.

As God planned

and the world reported.

exactly in time for me to finish the pour.

And so….thus a perfect plan was ruined.

So I turned to friends, family, my brain, and tools, and history, and luck, and logic, and masonry, and time, and fix again and again, and try, and fail, and wonder, and google of course, and think, and I am only half way through the whole process………but it is a fail at this point.

Fixing fixing fixing is the point for the next week as my sidejob…..but…..Maybe…..I will end up tearing out, eating costs, and pouring something nice in the sunshine. HAHa.

Whatever…..Michigan weather and all, that is acceptable. but at the same time embarrassing.

Hands!

Damn....

Gloves,

Important,

Must haves,

I once, Just, told my employees that they are useless without gloves to me,

In winter time,

Cold hands and feet,

Mean either you are not working,

Or you don’t have gloves,

Steal is cold,

In winter,

and everything we have is made out of steal.

yesterday work.

I have been cold….and working slow….lately. Winter…Hibernation. But here are a few new ones…I was atop a chimney wondering why not many people get fancy chimney tops anymore when I figured it out that not many masons waste the time..as.hence i wasted an extra hour on this chi.ney top….
