What did you accomplish today?

[raratt]

Had to sack the stemwall of the hotub pad today. I should be enjoying my new hottub in about 2 weeks. Pouring the slab tuesday.View attachment 5103541

What's the pier for?

What's the pier for?

Raised hottub pad. You wouldn’t want to pour 3.5 yds of concrete. So i formed up and sacked the stemwalls today. A couple days i’ll strip the inside form boards. Fill in the rest with pea gravel, put some rebar in and then pour the 4” slab.

I didn't understand why there was only one, that I could see.

That sucks man. I've had fires pretty close here too. Once we took a bunch of our stuff to a friends since we were in semi-evac mode. There were cops not allowing anyone around if they didn't live here. Scary shit.

Yeah man. I had it pretty easy. I lived. But all of us who evacuated that fire have some fucked up stories. Was all bad. If you’ve seen any documentaries about it, we all went through that. You finally get out and you are so happy to be alive.

I love mine. When I sit on the bench the water touches my chin. I wanted a very deep spa. It's great.

Oh hey.
Hottubs are so hard to get right now i’ve been on a list. My last hottub was a sundance model would cost 20k to replace. You can’t even get it if you wanted within a year.
The hottub i got coming is 40-1/2” tall. Sundance dont even got hotubs that tall. my tub will stick up out of the deck exactly 15” which is supposedly perfect to put your butt cheek onto while getting out.

It doesn't need to be that deep for you to be able to do that does it?

Your back is going to love you for it.

 

[Aeroknow]

My last hottub had a bad ass sound system in it. This time, i got some god damn speakers above it in the ceiling.

I used to have a nice little Troy Built. I gave custody to the ex-husband.

That's what we had too, and it was nice...But I don't know as that was adjustable either. It was my parents, so we are going back in time...

 

[raratt]

Now that I actually put the tiller all together it actually does adjust for depth. I blame it on being a blonde I guess.

Then you had an ascending aneurysm. Did you notice anything different in your thought process/thoughts after you came off bypass?

We used bypass for giant intracranial aneurysms and giant intracranial arteriovenous malformations. There were always some nerves when anesthesia gave the cardioplegia and started the clock.

I remember the doctor looking down at me on the gurney and saying I had a dissected aorta and they needed to operate right away, then my wife looking down and saying I was gonna be okay and thinking "jeez I hope this isn't the last time I see her"

then I woke up in a hospital bed with wires coming out of 4 holes in my belly and a couple of hoses coming out of my groin

In the next year after surgery no change in thought process or thinking?

 

[curious2garden]

The rest of the house i just stuccoed btw. The back was the last to do.

Pics?

Supposed to be 70 here tomorrow...I dragged the e-bike out of the basement and I might just get a ride in...I was going to put new tires on it over the winter, but I did nothing.

Not that I'm aware of

My brain works pretty good when I'm not actively wrecking it
