I'm at 297 for a total loss of 65 pounds. 44 pants are out bout to get into 40's. Feeling great and it's amazing how much more I can do.

Aiden had his days and nights mixed up for a couple of months. We would just keep him up as long as possible during the day and it evetually swapped.

Way to go Blake. Forty's huh, same as me.

Morning gang. Heading out to run errands and have a doctor's appointment this afternoon. Y'all play nice, TTYL.



Claude, seriously, let me know what you're needing the switch for. I'll price it here.

See there - - we luv ya. ummmmm good.

Hey Scott - - I laughed and reflected about your history lesson today. These idiots keep hammering us on TV about "invest in gold - - gold has never been worth nothing." DUH - - what kind of statement is that? It was $850 in 1980 - - so was the DOW average (rounded figures) Gold is now worth $1100 - - the DOW is about $10,500. That is over 12 times gain in 30 years. Now, shall I invest in gold or stocks? DUH. Now, maybe gold will not dive like the DOW can, but a little timing could have driven that earnings to way above the 12 times figure. A little screwing up could have lowered it - - no doubt. Just interesting noodling - - -- inquisitive minds want to know.

OK, finished breaky - - time to go hit the road and get more good stuff done - - I have been way too ambitious - - need to slow down and join Claude. Let's go fishin', Claude - - - - but not up there, no way, Jose.

Have a gudurn,

Bob

Mornin' All!

Dayshift and I got a late start. I'll take care of the leftover breakfast though......

-18* this AM and I got to play mechanic in the cold today at 0445. Went out to start the truck and it only ran for about 5 seconds then gelled. Made it through the -35/40* weather only to plug up at -18* WTH! Anyway, I had a filter and commenced to change it but the filter spud backed out and the fuel heater fell off. At least I didn't loose the heater gasket. Takes a bit of doing to get everything all lined back up and threads started again when your fingers are numb....... Then It took a bit of doing to bleed out the injectors to get it to fire off. Tricky to do with a manual trans on your own.

Got it done and made it to work on time but just barely. Thankfully Mama was happy enough not to have to get up and bring me to work so she will bring me the lunch I was supposed to be making myself instead of playing with the truck.

Most of us don't bite and those that do don't have any teeth left. The donuts on the other hand WILL bite if you look them square in the eye. Esspecially the overly hairy on that looks like Chaikwa's "mini-me"........

This is great news. I am very happy for you Blake, I am sure it has not been easy, however the better you feel the easier it will become.


Keep it up pal!

Nightshift is in.

Here's the latest and greatest from the welfare state..... anybody care to guess?

More furlough days! This time 911 is not exempt. We just can't take them at the same time. On top of that, we're down 2 bodies already. 1 more may deploy to Haiti. A 4th has been getting interviews for another job, due to all the lay-off threats.


Pants on the ground... pants on the ground... governin, like a fool leavin yo pants on the ground....
