Good Morning all, sorry I failed on starting the blog this morning space. I was distracted and forgot.
Hope everyone has a good day, catching up on some dvr and then heading to a wedding later.
Also next week is my last week off, then I am back to work.

Well, I just got back from the shop and my suspicion of a bad wheel hub was correct. In fact, they both had enough play in them to require replacing them. They also found wear in both outer tie rods, so they were replaced as well. Total cost: $956 
My cost $125 - $75 for my deductable on the warranty and $50 for the alignment that the warranty didn't cover. Not too shabby on my wallet. I'm sure glad I decided to put a warranty on the car when I bought it. What really made my day was one of the mechanics told me several times I had the best 6th gen Monte he had ever seen and kept asking me if I wanted to sell it.

I just finished 3 more hours of cleaning out the basement here and we still have a long way to go....
First beer just got opened and that means the rest of this evening is my time..... I gotta do some laundry but I can do that in between beers......
I also got stung by a bee that I saw get in the house earlier today while getting the mail.....
