I will need to book time like this as well. Weekends are a write off. I function better during the day versus at night; just the way I am wired.I moved. Built a new shop while off on parental leave last summer, traded the leaky toolcat in on a newer one. Been working on an LMM swap into my 2010 Yukon XL a couple hours a month since going back to work. Still have at least a few months to go on it. At the rate I've been working on it.
Bought an unmolested 96 2 door Tahoe to build into another wheeler but havent touched it yet. Also bought a majorly molested 93 2 door Yukon on 42"s to rob of it's solid axles, transfer case, drive shafts and bumpers for the 96.
Haven't touched the Chevelle. Thinking about dropping it off to get it finished before I start on the Tahoe as I said earlier in this thread.
Next major project is to upgrade our electrical service from 100A to 200A and install a generator plug with transfer switch for critical loads, hook up the hot tub and fix the leak it's had for years and add a few more ceiling light fixtures in the house.
This summer I want to finish the LMM swap and finish the yard off. I have a couple trees to move around, two raised garden beds to move and then some sod to lay down to repair all the holes and trenching. If I decide not to finish the Chevelle on my own I'll drop it off mid August before I go onto night shift for our turnaround in Sept.
I have been booking days off when the kids are in daycare to work on my projects because I get zero time off on weekends. That has made a huge improvement in my mood and has me feeling like I am accomplishing things again, even if it is house/yard projects and not my vehicle projects.
I had to save vacation for Mexico but our year end is odd and ends in April. Had three days left so I am taking them in April to get whatever I can done… house or jeep stuff.
Fingers crossed one or both kids are not home from daycare those days 😂
