Morning Onz :hello: I know others mentioned it, but I'm very jealous of your gig this week. I enjoyed hearing about it :tiphat:

As always, have a safe journey, my friend :tup:

Yeah, my wife would be one of them. I think it would be cool for a short while and then suck. It's so expensive there and every time you have to go somewhere it's a bit of a haul distance-wise. I talked to someone who lived in Hawaai for a few years and be hated it.

Good morning everyone! :hello:

I have lots of bits and pieces in my Z right now. Leaving work early to go see the Body Werks for an estimate to have em painted and hung. :)

We bought the most expensive TempurPedic that's not adjustable (~$5K). It's by far the best mattress I've ever owned, but for helping my back it's mediocre at best. My inversion table does much better, but even that is only temporary relief :ugh2:

I know, I know, you still have a long way to go. Regardless of the wait, I hope everything comes out perfect for you :tup:

If you're expecting to live the same life you live here on the mainland, then yes, you're going to hate Hawaii and find it very expensive.

If I make that move, I'll be downsizing and minimizing. I'll be there for the island and nothing else.

As for the Mini... We are are currently testing patience and listening. I test his ability to listen and he tests my patience.

Is it wrong to consider shortening your own cats life and is it worth it since she has kept us rodent free for years.

We did too, but ours is adjustable to help w/ my wife's back. Ours ran ~$9k. Greatest mattress I've ever slept on. :tup:

:eek: :icon14: anybody can see how an increase like that would restrict/reduce trades people. Ohio has a similar issue w taxes on businesses. They locate elsewhere if they have that option. :shakes head:

As for the tax increase it will definitely not help to bring more people into the trades like they announced in their new budget they released :shakes head:



:iagree: but tempur-pedic matress are great, my back is good but my wife needed a good one so we got it. Feels like you are floating kind of :ugh2: kinda weird the first time you go to bed after a few to many drinks :rofl2:
