Yeah I am going to detail it this summer. I just want to wait till it gets nicer much more constant.

 

Good morning all - busy day for me

 

Good morning everyone, well the cold seems to be in it's final stages, but I have been fooled by it once already lol.

Not sure what's up for today, wouldn't mind washing and waxing both the vehicles and doing some minor touch up work on the wife's monte, she has a bit of pain missing around the wheel wells from the winter stuff, nothing major but if you don't keep on top of it, well I am sure you are all well aware of how fast rust can eat away at a vehicle.

Mike - I replaced both of the a arms on my car as well as new wheel bearings on both sides and tie rods about 3 weeks ago, cost me a total of just over $400, the garage wanted almost $1700 to do just one of each, glad you were able to do the work yourself, it made my car ride and drive like brand new again (not that it was that bad in the first place, but afterwards I did notice that it wasn't for lack of a better term surging upon acceleration it would almost seem like you were hitting little bumps in the road when getting up to speed from a stop)

 

Problem is, with the new healthcare, many places have limited part time workers hours. So finding a better place to work is hard, i have an application going out in the mail today for a job. Maybe i'll get lucky, but any time i hope about making more money, it never happens.

 

Hi everyone. I don't usually post in the blog, but last night was scary. I drove the Monte to my first job, and my wife told me there was a chance for hail, so I brought the car home and took the SUV. I'm glad I did. We had 2 tornadoes locally, both about a mile from my house. One of them tore up a trailer park, and the other one took the roof off the local university and knocked down power lines. I was at my second job, and the ride home was full of flooded roads, broken trees, trees through houses, the entire city and most of the county had NO power until about 6 this morning. My wife was safe, as was the rest of our family. We were lucky. Never take anything for granted, as it could be gone in an instant. We are used to hurricanes around here...but not **** like this.

What's up everyone? Wild weather where I am in dirty Jerz. Sunny thunderstorms and then a rainbow! A beautiful day with spots of dark clouds reminded me how thankful I am to be alive and just how fortunate I am. Bought some sanding blocks to buff the plastic parts going on the Monte too. Time to find grub!!

 

evening all

 

Good evening all - got everything done today so I can relax tomorrow.

 

I still conclude this as Saturday so what's up everyone. I am sitting around a fire and the weather is not to bad at all. Have a good night everyone.
