Pictures of "Water Slide 2.0" that I made this weekend
"Ignoramus11030" wrote in message ... Comments are on the webpage. http://igor.chudov.com/projects/Water-Slide-2.0/ It remains to be painted, maybe I can coax my FIL to do it. i that's nice you do stuff for your kids. i think with their dad BUILDING stuff for them when they were kids they'll build stuff too when they get older. i think it must've been my grandfather who instilled in me the concept/desire of/to building stuff (though, i'm still not sure if in the long run it's cheaper to just buy the stuff, not as much satisfaction though, and it seems to me there's SO much less hand made or custom built stuff around, people just live with what they can buy in the store and much of that is cheap ****, one size fits all, when it breaks throw it away, never really fit all that well anyhow.) in the comments you mention the adults are fatter. that made me wonder how's it going with your weight loss, have you been able to keep the weight off? i know it's difficult. b.w. |

I hope so, but it is not at all a given that they will want to do their own stuff. As far as weight loss, things are not that bad, basically I regained 19 lbs, but I am still way below my starting weight. i in the comments you mention the adults are fatter. that made me wonder how's it going with your weight loss, have you been able to keep the weight off? i know it's difficult. b.w. |
