Is that a paint..a chalkboard paint, or just high gloss black? My wife wants me to make something like that.

Funhouse room? Or someone couldn't make up their mind?

There are actual chalkboard paints out there.

[Brizzo]

Yeah it's actual chalkboard paint; daughters room and I got out voted. I was gonna make it magnetized until I realized the $20qt only covers 16sq ft.

Gonna paint the closet real quick and then start hanging the crown molding

Beautiful winters day in Texas. No snow. Just sunshine. View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1453479153.100242.jpg

Kegging beers and bottling some later on.

Hope y'all in the NE are surviving the latest hyped up snowstorm.

When you have daughters or granddaughters...you'll get it.

Can't wait for shorts weather like that to be back so I can go outside without my nose boogers freezing, ya know? Looks nice. Didn't know you guys had trees down there, cool cool.

Amen.

Ya'll got any them fancy, voodoo, bladeless fans? Them's neat.

We tried but the patents for that thing are locked down.

Thanks man. And thanks everyone else. We got back from the ER at 1. She has a 9mm stone and that's most likely too big to pass on her own. May need to have the urologist bust it up with some ultrasound.

On the coffee. I at least get a 3 day weekend out of this ordeal!

That thing is a beast. I hope she does get an ultrasound to help out.

This is very disconcerting



SATURDAY: Blizzard conditions are expected in counties touching I-95 and most of South Jersey and Delaware away from the coast. Heavy, blowing snow will reduce visibility to under 1/4 mile at times. Most other areas are looking at significant snow and strong gusts, even if blizzard conditions aren't technically achieved



@Blizzard what exactly are your planned conditions?

Thinking about getting drunk tonight. I'll probably stay off I-95 though. Don't forget the backup power for your TV and XBox because I'm bringing power outages with the snow.

Looking good! You're missing a princess wall decal, but otherwise solid work.

 

[Psylocide]

Amen.

For both of my daughter's rooms, I was able to convince the wife to go with a neutral tan color and put those huge vinyl stickers on the walls.

One daughter has monkeys and giraffes and a big tree and what-not, next one is getting a big tree with owls and stuff.

They peel right off and don't leave any residue... pretty nice. The ones we put on my first daughter's room have been there for ~3 years and are holding up great. Look like new still.

 

[pointcity-homebrew]

school has been called off here, so I am at home with the kiddos. I suppose beer consumption should start soon.

We had one of those decals in our old house. I loved that thing. They look really nice and are good for odd shaped spaces.

I knew this was you!

Those are nice - make it easy to change the room as they grow without having to repaint. Of course our son is still happy as hell with the Star Wars clings so I don't have to do a damned thing - even better.

My daughter is demanding Disney princesses on the wall, we shall see. We had decals on the walls in our terrible apartment that we just moved out of. And they destroyed the walls when I peeled them off. But I am not totally convinced that the apartment wasn't just sh((t. A fixer upper house totally trumps crappy apartment with Terrible landlords

Say what?? It's fracking 38F!! Can't do a damn thing outside! Your child's going to freeze...get the kid back in before I call CPS! 😀

After another dry week I made very little progress on the scale this morning. Pisses me off.

If it wasn't for a company wide meeting today I'd be drinking very shortly. Gonna leave early today to have a couple beers before taking family out to Star Wars. Yay weekend!!!

To our grandkids 6th bd. Parents said it took 4 people to get it up.

Yep. Exhale are nice. Installed one for a friend; it makes an impressive breeze.

Ah, the old "hide behind a skinny tree" Looney Toons bit.

Love it.

Nice, but that crooked A would bother me.

Brought beers in to work to drop off for a comp after work (and have a beer at the drop off point, of course).

Are beer comps the only people to use rubber bands any more? We didn't have enough at home. Client office in OH didn't have any, wife couldn't find any at several pharmacies yesterday on her way home yesterday, and my office doesn't have any. Going to have to try a Staples this afternoon I guess.

Oooh look at Gavin with those mansions in the background of his private park. Bet he has a koi pond too.

I'm always amazed at the stark contrast between Gavin's brewing pics and my own.

Definitely neat to see how the 1% brews.
