CECAA850 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Morning all! Great news Gary!!!!! We want videos of the performance, but you knew that already. Steve, try to stay out of the hood every chance you can. Mark, we need to see a picture of you drinking tea, holding a cup with your pinkie extended. The bathroom project is winding down. All I have left to do is put up some towel holders and a little dry wall touch up. I'm pretty much at a stand still so After I got the yard done I started working on building a couple amps that I have kits for. There's a thread in the SS section that I where I found out about the kit HERE. The last page has a picture of what I got done this weekend. I didn't have a lot of time to work on it but got a couple things stuck on the boards. We're still drinking 8 O'clock coffee but I got a bag of beans from starbucks this weekend that we'll get into shortly. It's their blond roast. I like it as the beans aren't charred like their normal roasts are. It's really very good. Lighter beans have more caffeine as well. Off to a meeting, will check in later. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akdave Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Good morning and good Monday all! Tough weekend, we put Ruben, our beloved Great Dane down (the gray dog in my avatar pic). The tumor on his leg was finally causing too much pain even with uber meds. He gave us 8 1/2 wonderful years. It's tough to lose a member of the family. Life goes on, hope you're all well and have a great week! 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 So sorry to hear that Dave. Adolph, the dog in my avatar suffered from bone cancer. The weekend before we put him down, I put him in our kids wagon and walked him around several neighborhoods that we'd frequent on our normal walks. That Monday we said goodbye to him at the vets. Actually my wife did, I just couldn't bring myself to go. It was horrible. He was the 4'th dog that my wife and I had said goodbye to and it never gets any easier. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted March 14, 2016 Moderators Share Posted March 14, 2016 Hate to hear that about Ruben, but at some point you wouldn't want them to suffer more and you have no choice, but it's never easy. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKP'S BOSS Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 pets are such close family members. they are always there and always seem to understand what is going on and how you feel. they take our sh*t, and heal our hurts. our first set of rexes (cats) died at 13. DEVASTATING. the male (reggie) chose our daughter (the one in MKP's avatar) as his when she was 6 wks old. he slept with her, called for her when it was time for bed, etc. they were inseparable - like lassie and timmy. she was completely wrecked when we had to put him down - she was 13. reggie's sister (roxanne) cried through the house for a year before she went. ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE. we have their ashes. we also had a manx cat that wandered into our trash (cat with no tail/little bump) that we had for years - MKP's baby. we have her ashes too. i guess we will all go together. dad was cremated. he and mom wanted to be cremated and buried together. i got a double urn/vault that sits on one of our klipsch speakers. dad is in there, waiting for mom. hope he is patient! they are gorgeous dogs, guys. so sorry for your loss. when you least expect it, and when you are ready.... 7 years later we rescued 2 rexes from a breeder. stoney is white like reggie - and a lover just like he was. boney is black and white like roxanne and is an a**hole just like she was. they are not replaced, just honored. we were lucky to have them. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akdave Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 You guys are great. It's nice to hear from pet people at times like this because you just understand. It's a special kind of hurt and it does NOT get easier, this is the third dog we've said goodbye to in four years. This is presently our last dog and I think that is making it hit a little harder. I appreciate you sharing your experiences. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My best to you my friend....... Mark.... 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Dave, I'm sorry to hear about Ruben, Carl, sorry to hear about Adolph also. A good dog is a friend forever. I've been working at a veterinarian clinic that specializes in large animals, especially horses. I've been there for three weeks repairing wind damage from a few months ago. In the past three weeks I've seen 7-8 horses have to be put down. The extra sad part was last Thursday when they put down a 4 week old horse. Her joints didn't develop because the umbilical cord was twisted. Her mom would nudge her hoof into the young one's hoof trying to wake her. The vet left them together for 12 hours after she passed so mom will realize the young one isn't going to wake up. It was very sad. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akdave Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Ugh, that's just brutal. The facebook messages for puppies are already rolling in, but we want to take a while to grieve before we decide to jump in again (or not). With little kids (3&1), it will be nice to focus on them and puppies need a lot of work up front to train. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfbane Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Afternoon gang... Slow day..... was going in the shop today....... but the word is "was"..... didn't happen.... just bumming around the house..... feeling kinda freaky.... getting all jacked-up on English tea ..... The caffeine does get to me..... The BOSS wanted some so I made a pot for her...... she likes her little tea pots..... mkane...... I've never tried that coffee....is that whole bean? Well in our house the only thing we drink is the DD whole bean.... that's what The BOSS gets and that's what I drink. Dave.... glad your feeling better my man..... and yea you look mean in that pic.... lol lol... I've never driven a Porsche.... well 2nd thought I did drive some old 70's Porsche many many years ago.... I didn't think it was all that. I really forget what model it was. Think is some air cooled thing... I know it didn't want to make me go out and buy one.. Chuck.... cool pics.... looks like fun times... "OK" I got to do something...... a good day to all... MKP :-) Never been a coffee drinker. Hot tea I have every day. I purchase all of my tea from this Canadian Tea supplier in Vancouver: http://www.murchies.com/store/tea.html I'm not big on a strong tea blend my favorite is Darjeeling. The Darjeeling Estate on the above webpage is quite nice. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
