wow guys, glad to know I was missed!!!
As Chris said above, I went thru some personal problems. Family for one thing, the divorce is still going on with my parents. I also had a bigger more emotional situation on my hands involving my girlfreind. No its not what you think, it wasnt us breaking up it was something way more serious but im not going into details. Along with that problem, she also has been having problems at home and her parents are already divorced.
Also as Josh said, I work at Lowes now and Ive been working from 6:00 am to 3:00 pm tuesday thru friday (just part time for right now) and its my first job so its making me tired sign1sign1 I usually come home from work and just crash. I work in the lumber/building materials department, its fun but alotta work. Then im usually up till 3:00-3:30 in the morning talking to my girlfriend and then getting up at 5:30 am to go to work lol. Not the best thing to do but hey, shes my girlfriend and I love her to death.
Mondays are usually my days to come on the Gauge. we dont have internet anymore at home, my mom shut it off to "try and get us back for my dad divorcing her" so Im not usually on that much unless im at my grandparents house like I am today. I occationally stop in to check my PM's on the weekends at friends houses but usually mondays im on all day to catch up on posts and such :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
Ohh and Trainnut, sorry man, Ive been meaning to help you out with your expantion. Do you still want some input from me?
Gary, that layout is started, well the benchwork anyways lol. Ive been building it for a while at my grandparents house. Its all in pieces in the garage and ready for assembly. My dad is still not sure whats going to happen with the hosue that were in right now but one things for sure, this layout will come to life :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
Man those fires were a pain in the neck, it was really smokey round here for like 2 weeks. Were okay tho, the fires never got any houses round here thanks to the brave and amazing fire fighteres. The fire did however burn 12 homes in the canyon. Firefighters were not able to save them, it was to much of a risk to try and save them. The Santiago Fire (the one closest to me and that came close to the homes round here, some even right up to there backyard fences) is contained but still not out. Its on the other side of Saddleback mountain now, more towards riverside county. Been burning for about 3 weeks now I believe.
