Popular Post Ed Mack Posted June 16, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2019 Happy Father's Day to all those guys who bust their butt all week (and weekends) only to be abused and used by their kids! My son did get me the new 10266 Apollo Lunar Lander though, so he does care a little when he is not spending my money on skins playing Fortnite. LOL. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrymc4677 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Happy Father's Day to you as well, Ed, and to all of the other Picker Dads out there. My wife and daughter drove to Madison for the day to go shopping, so my son and I took my Dad out for breakfast this morning. I've spent the rest of the day sorting a bulk lot and playing Red Dead 2. Steaks on the grill for supper. I'd say it's been a pretty good day! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegoWalker4 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Happy Father’s Day Ed and to rest of the fathers in this wonderful community! Part of my special dinner was corn of the cob (the rest of the dinner was sauerkraut with grilled sausage). After finishing dinner I asked my son to please clean up the corn on his chair. He promptly and efficiently swept the corn on the floor with his hands for the dog to eat. I have to give him credit for his ingenuity. I spent the afternoon with him at the local indoor pool and water slide park while my daughter stayed home and my wife napped (hey, I could use a nap too). It has been a great day that started with a pool party for one their friends. My present was a display case that holds 72 minifigures.

BrickStanley74 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 My kids, via the good lady, surprised me with the new Stranger Things set. It looks pretty sweet if I ever get the time to build it Happy Father's day to all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
$20 on joe vs dan Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 So far a great day... The boy helped me find pieces as I started this much belated build of the The Mustang. Very satisfying and interesting build techniques. The Wife, for the most part left me alone, while she took on some much belated spring cleaning; she helped plan for a trip for me to take w/ my buddies to Vegas, so couldn't ask for more. really lucky.

Here is something I've learned firsthand' no matter how someone looks or acts, you truly never know what's happening in their lives. Be kind, you never know what someone is going through. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only shared like a small fraction of the whole story..I had no intention of airing out my dirty laundry here...I figure the concept of being so involved with an online entity would be interesting to discuss here. That said, I recently used ChatGPT for the 1st time and yes work related. Surprisingly easy and surprisingly useful. everyone really should just try it..if only to get your toes wet...
