I am not continously happy, but neither am unhappy.
There are good days and bad days, the are funny days and sad days, there are ![Jig | [Dance]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/jig.gif) days and  days.
As a surfer friend of mine said: You can't always ride the crest, if you do you either hit the rocks or land on the sand. You have to know when to drop it, start paddling again to get back and catch a new one.

Ha. Fo sho. I'm mainly trying to see the peeps who go out of their way to be unhappy. Either there everywhere or I just attract them and so I'm meta not-happy. I dunno yet. Probably both.

That's hilarious. My intent was to dumb it down tho and fish out the folks lacking self-awareness.

Amen to that brother and totally agree. We all have ups and downs. I'm trying to weed out those who go out of their way to be miserable tho... like actively try.
That was my upvote btw. I meant it and I'm not taking it back. You can't make me.

I'm willing to bet most peeps on here are not happy.

At the moment I'm pickled tink, just put the last coat of sealer on the stereo cabinet I've spent the last 6 weeks building.
It's looking very good!
I don't think before I open my mouth, I like to be as surprised a everyone else.

Nice man. Wood working is an awesome skill. Not gonna lie, us computer generation peeps... love tech and all but you still can't live inside a computer... yet.

I got out of computing for many years and took up construction, from concrete to roofing and all between.
So I'm literally a jack-of-all-trades but a master of none. I look at people on here like HTCW and OG and admire their skill.
I'm just a hack but I love doing it.

That actually sounds cool. Oh sure, a nerd may know about a nibble vs a byte, but can fix their own house problems? Nope.

The photos are of the Stereo Cabinet I built and a bookcase I did for a friend of ours a few months back.
Gallery - JaxCoder[^]
Click on the Projects tab.
A friend of ours owns a saw mill and I got enough Pecan to do the bookcase top and the Stereo Cabinet top, but didn't know I was going to build a Stereo Cabinet until a neighbor down the road offered me a ton of oak that had been sitting under his carport for the last 2 years.
With the Oak and Pecan I have left I'm making xmas presents.

That will accommodate one big-ass stereo!  That looks great.
Looks like you have a back panel...are you gonna be drilling holes through it to run the wires, or through the individual shelves? Or something else more ingenious?

Thanks, it's been a lot of work.
On the left is where the amp and receiver are located.
In the middle is an area for vinyl.
On the right there is a place for upright vinyl on top and I'm working on a drawer to go below that in the now empty space.
We have a turn table and an Akai reel-to-reel that will go on top. There's just enough room.
It's patterned somewhat after this; JAMM Record Player Stand Vinyl Record Storage Made of - Etsy[^]
You can see why I built instead of bought!

I was gonna ask what that space was intended to be for. Neat.
I've always believed, had I been born at any other time where software developer was not an option, I might've taken up woodworking. OTOH, while I loved my woodshop class in high school, I probably would've made a miserable living out of it.

I try to always keep a positive attitude, even though I'm not always happy.
But I think the root of unhappiness is insecurity. So the better question might be, "Who here is insecure?"
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Hah retired, just survived double bypass surgery with complications, bloody oath I'm happy. Health is returning, I live in one of the best parts of the world (no wars, famine or pestilence, just idjit pollies).
I used to think I loved coding, turns out I just did it for the money so no coding in retirement (thank the great Ghu I would loathe dealing with AI).
