What's the best part of your life right now?

What's bringing you joy?
I think I've done a reasonable job improving my dovetail jig.
That 12 inch Porter Cable model; it has some problems with repeatability. The reference marks are quite wide and positioned in a way to give a lot of parallax error. There was no real way to quantify how far you've moved the template in and out, which meant it's basically guaranteed to come out of alignment. So I took a knife to it. Scribed the alignment line around all the tines and put graduation marks on the brass thumb wheels. It's a lot easier to be deliberate in adjusting this thing now.
It still needs a few other things here and there, and I need to put those alignment marks on other templates. But it's a start.

The possiblities. The potential. Recently I have overcome my trauma and I have energy to spare on doing things I want to do.

I’m working on a project that’s really important to me - and I think that there’s a good chance I’ll see it through to completion at this point.
Admittedly, outside of that project… my life has not really been doing much for me lately. I’m glad to have something right now that’s helping keep me stable and sane in a world that really feels like it’s falling apart, but sometimes it really feels like I’m working to finish it and get it out there before life becomes a bit too much.
What's the project?

Post surgery sick leave. My body is still a bit fucked but it's also the most time off I've had in one go in years.

I've not played it, but I've seen it mentioned often enough to think I should probably give it a whirl
Yes do it!

To me it seems like it's THE best option to play ps2 games. Can run them at a bigger resolution and saving states can be used as a little cheat
You can do the same in the original console with Homebrew apps.

I'm a month away from completing my union electrician apprenticeship. It's been a lot of work, and there is plenty more to come. But after five years of working towards something, it'll be nice to reach a big milestone.
Congrats! I rememeber finishing mine and it was a lot of work. Just remember to take care of your body and especially your ears! My body has started to hurt in my wrists from all marrets and wire twisting

Dude, you and me quit at almost the same time!
Nice! Congrats my dude. Would've been closer to the same day but someone gave me a bottle of whiskey for Christmas that year and I hadn't told anyone I was trying to quit yet

Damn. Amazing. Are you in the States? What's your latitude/geography like? Do you have a water source, as well as electricity?
We are in Arizona, high elevation so it’s not as hot as the big cities. (Over 5,000 ft)
We want to order water delivery first, then collect rain water after we build a roof over the RV.
We have solar and it’s been enough for us so far, but I know when it rains during monsoon season that I may need a generator.

What’s bringing me joy ? When I go back home after a day of work and my daughters (7y) run towards me with a real smile. Knowing that she is really happy to see me.

A friend just had his first kid yesterday, he’s so happy it’s honestly contagious. Everyone in our group is already doting the kid and he’s only 12 hours old.

Is this a trick question?

I think a lot of people find that stressful, but really you get to tailor a big party that includes all of the closest people in your life to see you celebrate love

I'm more excited for the future after the wedding, to be honest, haha. It's just most fun to be in the moment right now is all.

Oh buddy, I'm right there with you. I just got a free cpu and mobo off marketplace and got my own thing running, I had so much fun figuring it all out
