nickman54 0 Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 Same with mine - she makes almost double what I make Being an RN in Canada is a really sweet gig from what I have read. They treat their nurses much better in the great white north. Where I live a floor RN usually makes between 20-25 bucks and hour depending on shift.

nickman54 0 Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 Fine looking work Manty and Echo. Most everything posted here has been geared toward house or vehicles. I got another one I wanted to show off. My buddy and I started raising chickens last year for meat. Today we had to clean out and disinfect the coop as we hadn't cleaned up the chicken crap from last year and this years batch is on order. Last year we raised 40 chickens and 2 turkeys. The deal my buddy and I worked out is that I would do the two week brooding at my house then we move them to his house to feed them out. These chickens are called Cornish Cross. They are the same type of chickens that you get when you go to the grocery. Here we are putting more stone down after scooping out all of the old bedding and crap.[/img] Here are some of the chickens from last year.http://i991.photobucket.com/albums/af36/nickman54/IMG_0772_zpscd0d7120.jpg' alt='IMG_0772_zpscd0d7120.jpg'> We had a bunch of family members ask for chicken this year so we are going to raise 80 now, we are not going to do any turkeys after last years experience with them.

Yikes, no - she makes more than a dollar a minute Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickman54 0 Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 Yikes, no - she makes more than a dollar a minute That's unheard of in northern Indiana. A full time nurse here can make 40 to 50k a year, which is considered a decent middle class wage here. I need to pack the family up and move up there, I could sit around with the kids all day and make her work full time. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.P. 0 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Yikes, no - she makes more than a dollar a minute Wow I might have to move to Canada when she graduates... I would have to pick up a job of some serious fishing of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickman54 0 Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 The plumbing job has been completed for a little while, here are the pics of my new kitchen area. I ended up putting up wainscoating and opened up the hall pass though. Still need to put down a couple of pieces of tile.
