I'm looking around the living room and think out loud, " Man I could store alot of my home brew stuff in here."
Then She shoots me with the, fish eye laser beam from hell!!!
pb --- I backed off real quick

My wife was really happy when I cleaned out a corner of the comp room. I re-purposed an old large printer stand for a fermenter stand/storage unit. Now my brewing stuff is all in one place instead of all over the first floor. She's def happier.

... and by the time I'm done it turns out more expensive than just buying the damn thing in the first place!

Almost finished building my gas fired RIMS system, modeled after the Blichmann Tower of Power stand. Took more than just a trip to the hardware store, but it's all mine. And I saved about 50%....

"I'm not drinking this week. I mean it. For real this time."
Drinking homebrew doesn't make me an alcoholic; it's part of my hobby.
Middle of the night, can't sleep, got the munchies, go to the kitchen, grab a couple handfuls of food, squat down by the fermenters with a flashlight to watch them bubble and churn, and think: "Man I hope swmbo doesn't wake up and see me here." Then think: "I wonder if I should have a brew; it might help me sleep. Nah, swmbo would surely catch me and raise hell; besides I have to get up for work in a few hours."

This is me to a tee. Just last night I went to the restroom and used the down stirs bathroom when there is one in our room just so I could take a peak. It's such a joy to watch this thing.
Whew! I thought I was the only one! Figured it was a noob thing. (might be)

Buying the grain mill is one step closer to buying bulk which will save money which will add money to the car repair budget. Pretzel logic I know but it works.
Problem is it's in the shop now & the part I'd bought that should've fixed the problem didn't...

Undergoing a home remodel project and needed to cut a section of the subfloor when I realized my 11 gal cream ale batch was fermenting directly below so I did the cautious thing and moved all my brew stuff away and nicely covered everything with a tarp for added protection. Finished the demolition, beer was saved, turned around and realized that my kids toys were right there just a couple of feet away from where I was working and were covered in saw dust. Spent the next several hours cleaning up each toy.
Well, at least your priorities were in order.
Yeah hey,at least I got the grain mill I needed. Just got a call a lil bit ago that my cars done. Darn TPS was $$$! Already had the VSS,so in it went. And still have money left for mommas kitchen! Good save their...She was ready to scalp my a$$.
