You know how it is when you work late nights.

You'd do almost anything to break up that 14 hour day.

Well, the shop is BUSY right now.

Everyone has really been stepping up lately and working a ton.

Jeff is working so much we barely get a chance to share the day's events.

But when we finally did get a chance last week this is what I get to hear about.

{Maybe it's a blessing in disguise that I'm not always kept up to date on the shenanigans at the shop.}

On one of said late nights Jason bet Jeff that he {Jay} could eat 20 cheeseburgers.

20.

I mean we're not talking quarter pounders, but still.

I'm assuming when they took this pic Jay had already started on 1 as you'll only count 19 {which is the first thing I did}.

I'm relieved sorry to report that Jason lost this bet.

"What did Jeff win?" you might ask, I did.

Not only did Jay have to pick up the tab for the meal that, I assume, made him see something resembling the above photo.

He's also on the hook to wash Jeff's car in his skivvies.

A free meal, clean car and humiliating his partner, I'm pretty sure that's as good as it gets for Jeff.

And...Here We Go Again

It's official, we are crazy.

The only consolation is that we now have some partners to share the craziness with.

I know I still haven't introduced Jason and Chloe.

I really have every intention of doing so.

We have been so happy with the partnership.

It has taken our business to a new level.

I was just starting to feel comfortable.

Comfortable?  That won't do.

{That was the universe stepping in again in case you didn't recognize it from previous posts.}

I kind of thought we had bought all we needed at the shop for the time being.

So naive, I know.

We have loaded our space with all this great equipment, what else could we possibly buy?

Why the space of course.

That's right.

We are considering getting ourselves a {very} permanent location.

Delving into the world of commercial real estate.

You know how "they" say that your house will be your largest purchase?

"They" might be wrong.

The thought of a mortgage for $3,000,000 makes me ill.

There are 6 zeros there folks, 6!

I hope that I look back at this post someday and laugh.

Laugh about how I thought $3M was a lot of money.

Yes, I'll have a good chuckle with my personal assistant while we're being flown by private jet to our beach front house in Maui from the condo in Paris.

Too much?

Paying Off

I just had to share this photo of Jeff and Jason hard at work.

Rockin' the PPG swag.

We've been missing Daddy lately since he's been working many late nights.

I'm happy to say though that this was our biggest month yet.

We hit 150% of our old record.

It feels good to know that the changes we've made lately have paid off.

The best change we made was taking on Jason as a partner.

Now we need to solidify our staff so these guys don't have to work so many hours.

Jeff also sent me this photo of a recent paint job.

They painted this racing stripe in black matte.

It's even clear coated with a technique that keeps the matte look.

We're all taking a well-deserved weekend off. 

Have a great one!
