I finally got the Trans Am home
Triple a was a bust they wouldn't touch the car.A few friends came an helped out though.
Got a general idea of some of what needs to be fixed.Tires an brakes are shot an need some floor pan work an at least on brake line.Nothing to bad to do.
Still got to take a good look at the engine.
I'm finally going to have internet again.I've been high-jacking it at work.

Hey Mike nice to see your feeling well enough to do the morning blog again!
Keane...Im with Jen on your plate delemia...I too would at the very least put it in the window!
Killer Pics Matt...Im sure by now you must have arrrived in Mexico...
be safe...come home soon ok?
I had one hell of a day...With the wind kickn this morning at 4am...and 24 degrees out... We (liz and I) awoke to NO POWER!...at 425 am..!!!!
Needless to say I made the appropriate phone calls to findout what the heck was going on...I was on hold with DTE (energy co) for over an hour even though they said it would be a 40 min wait...I finally hung up the phone all PO'd and we went back to sleep..
We finally got up for the day at 830am indoor temp 51 degrees and falling..(lizzy went and picked us up coffee and donuts, gas for the generator) whilest I was getting my leg on etc....I ended up pulling out the generator and hookn it up to the house..( I have a lead from my fuse box for the whole house to run off it)... We finally got our power back on around 3:15 pm... The only thing that could have made it worse there could have been a foot of snow on the ground...Thankfully it was all melted!
Ok now for the serious stuff.!!!
Lizzy had a 2nd operation..
They orthoscopically went in to remove her kidney stone...
The first was in her ureter (stuck)in the pipe from the kidney down/ The stone only shattered in to 2 peices... The second part (other half) was still in her kidney.
We were at the hospital for around 11 hrs...Between being admitted, sedation, recovery and they deceided to let her come home.
They put a stint in her ureter tube.. from just inside her kidney.almost all the way down...With any luck..she will heal by next friday to have the stint removed.. and possibly returm to work on the following Saturday.
So far so good...shes eating and drinking Liquids...without pukeing it up seconds later..With the exception of the power outage dance we did starting at 4 am...Shes been sleeping thru the night peaceably.. She looks like shes finally on the road to recovery! Hooray!!!!!!
Its been a rough 2 weeks for her and I both... I almost have my Princess back!
I once again cant thank everyone enough for all your prayers well wishes and genuine concern for her and I. Thanks ever so much! EV1!

evening all, one plate for sure. Im not a fan of NY's yellow plates, but they do seem to look better on darker colored cars. I was thinking about getting a custom plate eventually as well. I wish NY only required one plate so i could either get a filler or use my monte plate up front, all well.
Space i agree, plate frames are a nice touch, i removed the dealers frame and might get another one eventually. Jen the new visor decal looks great
