my year of continuing to do things that I probably should pay for, but can’t bring myself to continues. Today’s adventure was rehabilitating my malfunctioning water heater. For $135 in parts I was able to replace all of the active and passive internals and upon reassembly, it didn’t leak and produced hot water. it only took two trips to the hardware store so I view that as a win as well. I figure I saved myself at least 500 bucks today.

I know there's a bread thread, but this isn't exactly bread. There were like 7 rotting bananas this morning so I made two loaves of banana bread and coffee cake (not pictured).

Happy birthday, Todd!

The Official Head-Case Photography Thread.
n_maher replied to Knuckledragger's topic in Miscellaneous
Ok HC photogs, my Gen-Z daughter has put a point-and-shoot on her Christmas list and her choices are uninspiring. I've been told that I cannot "Nate" this present so I won't be getting her anything too crazy but here's the thing, I can't not be me. So, 1. Anyone have anything vintage kicking around that they'd want to sell as I guess part of this trend is buying old cameras and putting them back into service. 2. Anyone have any recommendations for new gear? I've read some articles online and I'm not seeing much (not shocking) and the usually great Wirecutter offered essentially no choice short of dropping $1,300 which is simply not going to happen. -
Happy Thanksgiving, Head-Case. I remain grateful for this site, not so much for the headphones, just for the company.

Happy belated, Bryan!

Was also making chicken parm today, because all things Italian were required. Assembly line. Arancini production

Al told me to stop building things. For variety's sake, Andrew and I emptied the bank account last weekend to go see the defending NBA champs. Was a lot of fun, got to see an OT buzzer beater from Tatum on our end of the court. Was a good dude's night out.

After a long day of manual labor (see other post) I decided that calories were irrelevant. Detroit style pesto pizza. There was, of course, a pepperoni version as well but I was too hungry to take two pictures.

Yesterday, removed half the sod to clear a 14' x 16' tract of land. For context, that took about two and half hours. This morning, continued to remove sod to clear the rest of the area. Took about an hour since I'd already used the edger to cut the sod into roughly 1' square pieces. Project then moved from demolition to construction, which involved raking and grading the area. Then moved approximately 5,000# of crushed stone by hand along with installing permeable paving forms to make Lily a parking space beside the driveway. Grandma and grandpa chipped in. The somewhat rough finished project. I did a bit more raking/sweeping to level it out and smooth the high spots. The paver box-out in the back is for an irrigation control valve that was annoyingly just at the edge of the excavation.
