Is It Ok ?
Just tell me this... Is It Ok To not have to Lightning for over a week and break down and cry about it everyday because you have to go 3 more weeks without it until you get a house and can go get your stuff in another state ?

RE: Is It Ok ?
Picking up my guitars (which is a much more expensive hobby) or adult time with my wife has always been a good way to relieve stress to me 
But the cars are fun and something I can do to have fun with the kids...after I get mine back together (the other two have been taking time away from that), then I can work on trying to get the Traxxas working better for the kids...LOL...

My stepdad asked me how much money I had into one of my cars. I thought for a second and said "maybe $700 or 750". "HOLY ****" was his reply, "how can you spend that much money on toys?"
"Hey, I don't say anything about you havin multiple $3500 guitars"
nothing more was said on the subject, lol.

LOL Eric...my Himoto was my B-Day present from my wife...I had asked for either a himoto or redcat, or a new "inexpensive guitar" for fathers day...The kids didn't think I needed a toy and thought I had "enough guitars" (at the time 13 guitars and basses, all but 2 under $400) so they got me tickets to a couple concerts to go to by myself...After hearing enough second hand b****ing about it, she told me I could spend $200 on an R/C car...then said "happy birthday" afterwards...LOL...Next day a buddy of mine called needing $$$ and offered me his only electric guitar that others were going for between 1800 & 2800 on ebay for $700...but he only needed like $250-$275 up front, and pay off the rest in payments when I could afford them...LOL....and yes Women are more expensive...especially when they come with 2 kids, but I love 'em all...and I'm on a musical equipment stand still until the hobby starts bringing in $$$ to pay for itself....

Haha Thats a story to remember... but it is true... if she aint happy.... then you aint happy...

LOL...That is the truth, but I consider myself lucky...She doesn't have any hobbies and gets her enjoyment out of my pleasure, so I get to spend both of our share on hobbies
...This summer has sucked though, when the car was running good, we had 3 weeks of rain, then we had 2 weeks of 98-102 degree weather with extreme humidity, I had an out of state family reunion, 2 concerts by myself, 3 younger cousins graduated HS or College and I have 3 boys, f/t job, p/t business and I do all the cooking...I haven't had enough time for my hobbies [
] I tore my engine apart to seal it and do some upgrades 1 1/2 weeks ago and it's still only 2/3 back together...

Nope...Debbie (you remember Little Debbies snack cakes right??? ) Three things, 1) I am a good cook, 2) schedules make it better for me to do the cooking, 3) I like my food cooked, not blackened
