I'm so excited I cant hold it in any longer I need to tell some one what I got people for Christmas. So hear is the list.

Jeeping boy friend is getting Polo colon retractable extension cord light Retractable extension cord outlets with breaker on the cord. Two years of JP mag and the big gifts are a Heater for the garage and I am redoing the garage I'm putting insulation in the studs and putting peg board and ply wood over it with some storage things with goodies and tools he requested Oh and Wood for a work bench. And a bunch of other little things he likes and needs stocking stuff.

Jeeping brother = Jeep sweatshirt and gift certificate to a jeep place and 1 year of JP mag

Jeeping Dad = A Jeep willys windshield wiper pump and a replica Jeep willys sales and service sign for the garage. Maybe a gift certificate to a 4wd he wants diamond plating for the back corners of his CJ he is rebuilding.

Mom = a EMS wool sweater and a thing that goes on kids seat belts so the belt dose not hit them in the neck all the time (moms short) and 2 BJ size things of Red Fish candy.

Anyone else need to spill the beans????

Do you thing redoing the garage is a good gift???
I am rather excited about it.

I would say the garage thing would be cool if all your going to use is peg board to cover the insulation you might want to run some sheets of plastic over it other wise that insulation is going to eat him apart. his lungs that is. or just sheet rock it. But I like that idea.

The GF is getting paint. We just bought a house and she has been talking about painting the living room the bathrooms and one of the bedrooms. So I'm going to go price the equipment and I got to see how much it's going to cost me and then get her a gift card so she can pick out the colors.

how does that sound. I'm broke cause I just bought this house and it's something she has been talking about wanting to do.

TJ Magoo He is a air plain Inspector and dose a lot of traviling. He was supose to be away in NM longer but is coing home early Sunday afternoon and ruining it. I am going to do my best to keep him out of the garag but not sure if its going to happen I think hes going to see it early. I did get that stuff they put under shingles to put over the walls before the peg board. We are only renting so I don't want to go all out and dry wall it.


The paint sounds like a good gift to me!! Painting the house the colors you like makes it more like a home. I just recently rented and moved in to a house and garage with my boy friend. It took some getting use to I would ask what he thought of a Color and he didn't really care. At first it bothered me how can he not care? But then I realized Its a guy thing Plum is not a color its a fruit. So I did the colors I liked and am happy. Just remember its nice to say things like Oh hunny that looks wonderful. Or that brings a lot of light in to the room or WOW! You did a good job. A really good one to hear is You have made this house in to such a great home!! Even though you may not care she will be happy if you say nice things and seam to like it!


I am rather excited about what I am geting too. So far 3 Boxes from Jeep supliers came to the house!!!

it's strange how we don't car about colors of stuff some times. I told her I didn't care aslong as it had no pink or baby blue color to it. she has a plum and yellowish orange color that she wants to paint the rooms. Me I like the drywall look and pegboard look hahahaha I think if I had a room in the house I would make it look like a garage still. that would be cool looking.

I laughed at JDogg's idea of redecorating a regular room into a garage. I think it would be awesome. Workbench Entertainment Center With Radial Arm Saw (does THAT have a remote control?) You can have a lamp that looks like an engine stand or just take a sheet of glass and cover that lathe up... TADA, a coffee table! Have a load of concrete poured right through the picture window, hey, no more vacuuming the carpet. The possibilities are endless.

OK this is what it would looklike. The walls drywall with the masking tape outlines on them still. with posters of hotrods and jeeps all over them o ya beer posters with chicks sorry ladies this is a mans room right. hahaha
ok the endtables would have a steal plate over the top of a motor block. then the coffie tape would be jeep hood with jack stands for legs. lamps would start off with jeep rims as the base with some sort of covers havent got to that part yet. the TV would be on a tool chest hahah love this room more and more.
