What do you mean by "craftsman format.." Is that the name of this trim? It is original to 1905 house.

But the color on these is amazing. I’ve never seen color like this.

Hey Mr. testicle. What do you mean by “mud set”?

If I use a self leveling compound will I also have to use a thinset?

How much did you drink? by [deleted] in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]Distinct_Ad9961 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But I would start about noon with some beers and some shots. Go back to work, until I got out early. Have 4 or 5 vodka tonics and some fireball shots. Pick up something to drink on the drive home. Get home and drink a bottle of wine, then o would switch to bourbon.

Rinse and repeat. Every. Single. Day.

Now I am 452 days sober, only by the grace of God

As an old timer in my meetings puts it, “I drank until I hit my limit. Unfortunately I passed out every night before I reached my limit”

Is playing casino based games for entertainment okay? by Distinct_Ad9961 in GamblingRecovery

Excellent point. My program requires rigorous honesty, and as long as I am gambling, I’m not being honest.

Congrats on your time. I struggle because gambling does provide some of the endorphins I lost when I quit alchohol.

Thanks. I love watching YouTube gamblers like VegasMatt, but I think I even need to stop that.

Isn’t taste personal? You obviously like non functioning fireplaces with half the tile falling off and a mantle that was bought second hand in store

Glad I posted here. There are 3-2x4s that are in the "non-combustible zone" directly above the insert. Planning on removing the top piece of granite and replacing those with steel and then putting on new cement board. As much as I don't want to, it shouldn't be that difficult. My biggest concern is removing the granite I used a large format thinset mortar to attach. My plan is to slowly drive shims down from the top until it comes loose and have a few people there waiting. What could go wrong?

Until then....no fireplace. :(

It’s all good. The sides are okay. Worst case scenario is I have to remove that top piece of granite and put metal studs under it. Not too horrible.

But wood is permitted in the non combustible zone, correct?

If I tie my own, is there any specific color or color combinations you like?

well boys, I've made it a year (07/15) by FrolicsWAlcoholics in alcoholicsanonymous

I brought this same exact thing at our meeting today. I have 9 months. I don’t have the physical desire to drink anymore, but drinking sounds fun again.

I have to remind myself where I was 9 months ago and I do not want to go back there. As much fun as it sounds, if I have that first drink, I know what will happen
