Back to work and to my usual routines

        Been back to work for a couple of weeks now and wow is life ever busy. Been working lots of overtime and busy with the little guy every evening. Been trying to rearrange the house so its more convent for him to play and hang out while i move all my video game stuff to one of the spare bedrooms downstairs. Ive been trying to figure out an easy and nice way to "show off " or display all my video games. Haven't found a shelf so i think I'm going to test my carpenter skills out and trying building some custom shelving units to house my collection. Everything i find the shelves are too deep and not enough shelves to actually hold everything.
       But in building shelves it requires time , which something that i don't have much at all to work with. Right now the little guy is having a nap and then the wife is working so it give me some time to browse the classifieds and surf Facebook for some deals to be found which are few and far in between. How does your significant other deal with your video game collecting hobby. Its funny because since we've had the kid I've sold my toys like my sled and dirt bikes and live a pretty quiet lifestyle. Lately especially since I've been back from school my collection has gained some traction and has grown quite a bit? Do they embrace your collection or hate it? Did pick up a few games last week though like

     - TMNT Tournament Fighters
     - Zelda, Link to the past
     - Biker Mice From Mars
     - Mega Man 5
     - and a bunch of other ones that i don't feel like typing out.....

 All in all I've got a lot of work cut out to do like the shelving and the room in general. Its been coming together really well so far. i'm still trying to figure out all this forum and script and trying to insert pictures so bear with me on that. Haven't done much of it since high school .  Another thing that makes it hard up here in good ole Fort St John is that there isn't much of a gaming community like in PG and other areas that I've seen. Theres a lot of competition and a lot of reselling going on so for someone to find a deal is next to impossible. So if anyone actually reads these blogs and is from the Fort St John area then hit me up. Little guys waking so back to daddy duty. Take Care  , few pics of my game room for now .
