Man I have thought that way so many times with my simple little business. I basically am a 1 man show. I do it all. And at times, the mental stuff drives me crazy. I end up sitting down for hours just tying jigs or packing products with the music on and zone out of everything that I have to think about. Just put 5 jigheads in a bag and seal it

I am sitting on the back porch now watching the two tomcats dismember a rabbit.

That is my kind of jam. I watch the birds in our back yard on my feeders and the small gator in the pond behind the house thinking that one day, he is going to get hungry enough to charge them and have a snack.

Todays job. My outdoor kitchen came in on Thursday last week and I hired some guys to come out today and un-crate it and carry it around to the lanai. The panels are solid concrete and the countertops are granite so it’s heavy as hell.

I managed to get the pieces in place by myself and get it all screwed together. The last countertop is 84” x 40 something inches and it weighs over 400 pounds. We’ll have to get someone to help me put that up there.

All I have left to do is to put the trim pieces do a little shimming, install the last countertop, then put the appliances in which are fairly easy. Probably finish on Thursday.

I bought this system as a modular system and it is awesome. It is incredibly solid, but it is heavy as hell and I’m too fricking old to be moving those panels around and doing it by myself. Will take me a few days to recover. Should have it up and running this weekend and making some smash burgers one day on the griddle and smoking some ribs on the pellet smoker the next. Been a long time waiting for this.
