Phone line is buried, wish they would do the same with the power. If my wife’s parents were not in the old folks home up here I wouldn’t be here. Oh well, they could have lived in Afghanistan, than I would be really complaining. Happy Veterans day people!!
We put our services underground last year. The neighbor two doors to the south had a bunch of trees that had been hitting their services and they lost it all when the heavy wet snow took the lines down in their yard. Guess who pays for it when its in your yard caused by your trees? OUCH.
Where was that thread that you and I were whining? I whine so much I lose track where.

Evening everyone.

Had a good day off work, helped mom with take the leaves and yard waste to the local compost this morning. After we made the two trips to the compost she took me took Pepe's to have tacos for lunch!

After I got home this afternoon I installed a new mailbox and cleaned up around the outside of the house.

Thanks again to all of the veterans for their service to our country and so we can keep our freedom. All gave some and some gave all.

I have been trying to gather the info needed to do the high idle on my truck with the 6 spd tranny. I think I got what I was looking for!
Thanks to Colo_River_Ram for the pics of how you did it. I told him the next round of drinks are on me here in the break room, so post up what you want and it all goes on my tab tonight. (Well at least one round )

LEGG is good, I managed to crunch and munch the wad of scar tissue to the point where it feels much better. The doc said it would take a bit of noise but preferred we do it this way.
Sorry that you are having such discomfort from the Legg and now the hip, compounded by the shoulder.

Maybe you cheaped out on your paintedonspeedo kits and got the China brand with lead paint?

Take Care Bobby, its only a call away to book the flights for Punta Dunta, Maddi and me. Then Punta can fix you right up. hint hint.

Evenin All!

A Big thanks to all those who have served and are serving!

Busy week at home again. Hoping to slow down a bit now that I'm back at work.....

The snow is SLOWLY starting to pile up but most days are still making it in to the upper 20s and keeping everything slick out there...... Makes for some fun driving.....

Mama and I had the day off together for once and both kids in school....... Felt kinda weird..... We spent the morning together and got about 90% of our Christmas shopping done. Kinda early but the paycheck was good and the local fred Meyer's had some really good sales for 6 hours this AM and were stacking discounts. Made the budget go MUCH farther.

I'll keep the pot on tonight while I keep the beasts at bay tonight.....

Hadnt thought of them getting viruses. Probably start slurping electricity from the outlets, chasing around the dogs and ordering your hubby around.

On Oct 25 I went into a Wal-Mart in CA. I almost beat the snot out of a motion activated X-Mass tree that sprang to life when I walked by it. It was too early for that and trees shouldn’t shout ho-ho-ho and wave their branches at you. Glad you got your shopping done. Loved X-mass when my kids were home. Now days I am Scrooge. Glad you are keeping the gremlins locked up for us tonight.
