Does this happen to anyone else or just me?

It seems like every time I start a personal project (car, gun, etc), every ounce of my energy and every cent in my wallet gets tied into other stupid things that can't be put off. Wish I had the money and time to just finish things in a timely manner for once in my life...

I don't know what you're talking about, none of my sacrifices as of late have been for my happiness . I just figure that pendulum will swing the other way soon enough though.

Mtn.man - all of that - too early in the morning for me. i may have to visit the town of Bailey, seems there are advantages to living there.

My wife and I are the same way, when we start something we become single minded and get it done. We don't allow distractions leave things undone.

Yup. Just happened to me again today. Woke up to a COLD house. Furnace was out. Not being an HVAC trained person I did what every male does - I opened the cover to the furnace, looked around, jiggled wires, nodded, scratched myself, then smacked something with the handle of my screwdriver. This time, it actually worked - briefly. The furnace ignitor came on, the gas and flame began - and warmed the house up to where the thermostat was set.

Of course, this was a one time good deal as it wouldnt come back on later. I took 1/2 day off from work, called the HVAC guys, they came and replaced my ignitor & cleaned the flame sensor (even showed me how to do that - and advised I do it once a year). Cost me $250.

After a cat vet bill last month of over $600, etc., etc. I never get to do anything that *I* want with my money - just what I need to do with it.

Ouch...! I told my cats to get another life whenever they got sick

All I kept thinking was that the money I was putting out for this bill would almost cover me getting a new Sig 250 2 Sum.

Of course, the cat is my little buddy and I had to do everything I could to help him (turns out he was severely dehydrated and [er, hm] majorly constipated). He's on a prune and metamucil diet now (j/k).

I remember that night, glad he is okay
