I am quite handy....I do lots of stuff. I am not one of your typical pharmacy nerds. I did quite a bit before I went to pharmacy school. I am also not like you who pays someone to do everything. I do my own work.

Oh let's see, I swapped out 4 toilets last weekend. I change all the oil in our RV.. I maintain our pool.. I laid new laminate floor on the RV.. I did most of the set up work..fixtures, furniture installs..plumbing for 4 businesses we used to own...
So shut up!

How do you like the outdoor kitchen? My neighbor is getting one installed. He must have inherited some money or won the lottery because he is going all out. I figure 15k at least. It looks cool but I wonder how much would you use it? It's kind of like all my neighbors with swimming pools that never use them.
Maybe I will get one when I do not have to drop 32k a year on daycare.

Daycare costs you that much?? Maybe you should consider other options.
My first spent less than 1 month in daycare. My 2nd never spent a day in daycare. Maybe that's why I have a pool and an outdoor kitchen.
It's a big block of bricks with a sink, stove, and a grill. I bought the grill from BBQ's Galore...it slides in.. but it's about 300 pounds. then I have a separate Viking Stove with 2 stoves. Both hooked up to natural gas. We use it alot...
The pool? Kids use the heck out of it. I probably use it about 5 times a year.

That is the going rate for a good school. Both my wife and I work so the kids have to go somewhere. I figure daycare is not a place where you want to go with the cheapest option. Three years from now they will all be in public school.
I don't know it seems like it would be more hassle than its worth. You would have to bring everything from inside out to cook. Then you would have to bring all the dirty stuff back in to clean. It just doesn't seem like something I would use that often.

I don't imagine you'd grill stuff indoors. As far as the stove, my wife just wanted one...it does get used. I also have a high output stove for crawfish boil and such but having an outdoor stove allows you to cook a bunch of stuff on the wok and stuff.. Chit I don't know..

32K a year for daycare? Wow. You can get a live-in nanny for less money than that. Guess it depends on where you live, too. My previous employer's day care charged $3.75 per hour per child, and was able to offer reduced price care for low income families.
Was that addressed to me? I don't drink coffee, but to the chagrin of my dentist, I drink enough Diet Pepsi to compensate.
On a better note, I went to a job fair in a nearby large city, and one of the hospitals there had THREE FTE openings. 👍 I hope, because I sure hope there isn't some drastic reason why. I did stop at a hospital in that neighborhood, and it was the first time I've ever walked into the front entrance of a hospital and the place looked DESERTED. Nobody at the front desk, very few people walking around, etc. I did find Human Resources, and they had two pharmacist openings (one FT, one PT) but that door was locked too (it was about 12:45pm). In addition, it was in a really bad neighborhood, so yeah, I probably don't want to work there.
Last night, I was piddlefarting around online, and found another place that's hiring and applied. Maybe something will materialize, maybe it won't.
