Yes, It’s Taking Me Longer Than Expected…
The question: which is more important— $18,000 worth of home renovation costs saved by taking on a huge project by yourself, or eight months’ worth of weekends spent executing that DIY project?
The answer: I don’t know yet. I’ll tell when I reach the end of the eighth month. I’m just starting month seven now.
S.Rod does not set off airport-security with her sexy cuteness, or her titanium spinal support. This petite Puertoruvian uses her powers of the Force to keep all facets of the Somrod business afloat. With her love and talent in jewelry, crafts and interior design, Ms. S.Rod hopes to make the world a better place one beaded necklace at a time.



I’m just sorry that you are having to do this mostly alone. I really wish I could help you more.
Could have sworn you guys were trying to convince me TWTWIM and I needed a shack of our own. I’m re-thinking that.
Seriously, I’m sorry your up to your ass in home maintenance rather than delving back in to your work. Just so you know, we did a tease for Magic Junk Radio on the new show I’m hosting. We’re stoking the fires for your triumphant return.
Cheers!
Point 1: I’ll take a healthy fully regenerated S.Rod in a year’s time as opposed to one that helps me finish drywalling.
Point 2: Home ownership is great, but like anything of worth, it comes with some sacrifice. I just decided to make a larger sacrifice than most would dare… and with such a commitment, you always question your devotion.
But the next wave is close. We heard the shout-out, Josh… and we are appreciate the stoke to get back in the saddle. We’ll be there very soon.
I just wanna make 5 points about the zoo…
I’m a very lazy person and about the most mechanically inept person on the planet. I think I’d just hang myself. I’m hanging out over here in the Neverland wing of adulthood: no kids, no houses. We have three cats and that’s about as responsible as I care to be (and TWTWIM does 99% of that). I’m fairly useless, really, but I’ve grown comfortable with my uselessness. I guess that’s bad.
We’re all looking forward to the happy return, both of the show and a regenerated SRod 2.0!
after many years of these crazy projects, i have come up with a surefire method of estimating project completion. every project needs to be broken down into a number of “home improvement units.” each “home improvement unit” takes exactly four hours to execute.
this is no revolutionary idea (“duh!” you’re thinking), but here’s the key: every project, no matter how small, will swallow at least one unit.
follow this rule and you won’t be disappointed to find that that two-day project you started has dragged on for months.
(p.s. don’t you guys think josh should get a house? my gawd, the stories….)
I’m so many units past what I wanted to put in that the HIU Bounty Hunters are after me… with no disintegrations.
