I will be taking some time off to get settled at home and watch this little bugger grow at an insane rate.

Congrats to you and your wife Drew! You're a lucky new dad and you're about to have your hands really full for the next few months. Get sleep when you can and take a well deserved rest whenever possible!

Clean Slate

Still no baby but I might get Shawn's bike done so I can leave the shop with a clean slate.

After waiting a few days and doing odds and ends in the shop I decided the baby has a different agenda and was not in any rush. Got Shawn's bike welded and now will do the braze-ons and drop-outs today. In a perfect world I will finish the bike and leave the shop for my mini maternity leave with a clean slate. It will be nice if I even have time to clean the shop so I can return to no loose ends and a shop ready to get rolling again. Here are some photos of Shawn's bike.

should finish it up tomorrow (unless the baby comes...)

Nothing like welding .6mm stays!

False alarm

Went to the hospital yesterday just to get sent home again.

Had a doctor over react to one of Andrea's comments and 6 hours later we had another doctor send us home. What a day.

It is hard to start any projects so I went to getting some things organized. This cabinet I bought at a flea market for $30 and it now holds all my small frame parts. It has all the drop outs, braze-ons, bolts and a few other misc items. Took a while to get it all organized but is very well divided and works great. Seemed like a good way to spent the day.

$30 well spent

Might still start Shawn's bike tomorrow.

Cheers,
Drew
