 Okay, I just had a kind of a weird situation. I don't know. What's the word for it? Not weird. Anyway, this is what happened I was walking around my house looking at my upper floors, which are not made thinking Man, it's gonna take me a long time to To get these upper floors built because I need to build a lumber mill I need to build the power source for the lumber mill, which means I'm I mean, it's just it's just gonna be like Like at least a year before I get set up to even be able to start cutting wood For my second and third floor now starting to think man I have a lot of things going on and a lot of things to do Maybe I should just bite the bullet and buy the wood and it's gonna be a few thousand dollars to do it Which I mean I could afford it. I wouldn't say I could comfortably afford it, but You know, I could pay for it and Then like like immediately after that I got offered this job to To fix up someone's house for like fifteen hundred dollars Yes, I mean we had a deal we got to figure out the exact details but like it's gonna be like a Significant portion of the amount of money that it would cost to just do to buy the wood for my floors so I Think what's gonna happen here is I'm gonna take that job You know spend and spend some time working on someone's house and then take the money and Start buying wood for my upper floors And then, you know, I'll still have to pay for some of that myself Maybe I can maybe I can squeeze out a few other sources of money here and there to help pay for the upper floors, but I kind of think it's gonna be worth it because right now I have three floors worth of stuff all on my first floor And it's gonna be amazing to take like like a lot of the stuff down here and put it up where it's gonna go plus It's just gonna it's just gonna be so nice to have all that all that space that's doing nothing right now, so My kids are gonna love. Yeah, there's there's so many reasons. I should just do it. So I think I Think doing my third my second and third floors is About to get bumped way up in the priority list and I think it's gonna happen a lot sooner. I'm just gonna buy the wood Let me let me show you at least what I'm talking about up here so I'm standing up on the second floor area right now and The way I'm gonna do the floor here is I'm not doing a floor out in the middle there The floor is just gonna go across this part and it's gonna go all the way around Where all those garbage bags are those are full of styrofoam for styrocrete and come all the way around here And then I want to bank the edge here So that I can use it as a running track and have a little little banked running track and then in each one of these Like in each one of these slots There are 12 there are 12 pillars, right? So between each pillar I'm gonna call these slots between each slot. There's gonna be like, you know, like a bedroom or like You know my my drawing table will go up here and then I'll have all my drawing stuff And there'll be 12 different slots where I can put stuff Well, maybe one or two slots will be the spot where you come up the stairs or something but there's gonna be a whole bunch of slots for different things and then Right up here on the third floor I'm not gonna climb up there right now, but All right, I'll Alright, so here's the third floor It's just a dome two-story tall dome. I'm not putting a I'm not putting a fourth floor up there There's there's space for a fourth floor But this is just gonna be two-story tall ceiling so I can have basketball and volleyball and I don't know whatever and All of these joists here they're in pretty decent shape, but It does all temporary. I'm gonna take all this out and put in you know stronger wood thicker wood Because like I put all this in So that I could get in here to do the ceiling Um, and I cut the wood real rough with the chainsaw. It did come out pretty good. Still, I want to replace it Well, I then and the the wood is in pretty good shape though. I'll be able to use it for a bunch of other stuff anyway Up here. It's just gonna be gymnasium floor all the way across You know, I'll get this big scaffolding out of the way obviously And uh, man, that's gonna be awesome Oh, here's the door to outside I'm still gonna build a lumber mill and a power source for the lumber mill and all the associated stuff I'm just not gonna feel so rushed in doing it and uh You know just the quality of life increase That's gonna happen by having those floors done Is uh, that's gonna be pretty huge. Oh, that's gonna be awesome like Like potentially in a month or two I could have like a gymnasium up there. Oh my god. My kids are gonna be so excited Me too All right. I think that's what I think that's what's happening now and right now I just I just got off the radio with the shana and we're we're tracking down Who we can get to or who I can get to cut the wood At a good price who actually cuts kind of straight. I know one guy who has a pretty decent price But he's terrible at cutting the wood. Oh, he's so crooked, but um, yeah, I'm tracking down someone to cut the wood right now and Getting materials to do this job To get the money to buy the wood for the I guess If that's all going forward I need to start calculating Exactly what pieces of wood I need and how many and all that stuff All right, I'm just gonna Let this roll around in my brain a little bit, but I thought I should say something about it right away when it was still fresh Now right now I'm gonna work on something else for a little bit. I'm gonna go move a boat around Oh, what is this brightness? I see Oh sunny day. Oh my gosh. This is amazing Oh, it's been raining so much Okay. Yeah, I mean if that will work that would be amazing All right, basically there's a there's a local guy that I know and uh If I help him cut the wood the price should be significantly reduced if we can work this out and At least part of the wood He can cut on my property because I've got I've got trees that are on the ground that are fairly dried out and stuff not getting my termites. We can totally Get at least a few of those Yeah, so that should really help the price the other thing is like If I can get this guy to go Into my jungle with me and we can go hunting for these trees I can get him to identify a whole bunch of trees for me because that guy knows all the trees around here and I I need to learn a lot of that Oh, okay, this might this might be working out really well Well, I went by the guy's house the guy who who I know who I know is cutting wood right now And he wasn't there that was a couple days ago and then I was gonna go back, but then I started thinking, you know If I get someone else to cut the wood for me, it's gonna be cut with a chainsaw Which means it's gonna be rough which means I'm gonna have to plane it anyway So it's still gonna leave a bunch of extra work for me to do And if I cut it with my lumber mill and I build a decent circular blade Mill It'll cut flat enough boards. I don't have to plane them so I don't know. I just started thinking I'm gonna skip through a bunch of what I was thinking but basically I got to the point where I was like, well, maybe I should just Cut the wood myself And it's it's you know, I still have to build the lumber mill that I can use I can use the money I make from this job. I'm gonna do to buy some lumber mill pieces and uh If I just get cranking and working real hard Then I can You know get all that going Faster Now now I'm thinking I should just do that Just just start really focusing on Just working harder and getting it done And now that I'm saying that I feel like I was kind of I was kind of like wimping out trying to get someone else I think I need to do it. What are you saying little baby? Are you saying that's the screen you can see me on the screen? So I do you think I should just cut the wood myself make the lumber mill Make all the stuff for it do it myself. Yeah, I think that's what I should do I think that's what I'm gonna do I'm probably just gonna keep my priority list the same but just start working harder on it I did kind of like kind of like when I was building my house when I was building my house It was like sun up till sundown going Full full force. So maybe not that much Yeah Yeah, I think that's what I'm doing I think I'm just gonna start cranking up the cranking up the work effort Hey, I better shut up and start doing
