Hope everyone is enjoying their day.

Tadd some of those frozen dinner boxes are really hard to open, especially when they wrap the food with the strong plastic still glad things are going well in your household

Getting ready for an afternoon JHSC meeting, oh what fun the difficult part of these meetings is trying to stay awake, as they always seem to have the room temp a tad too hi for staying awake but perfect for an afternoon nap, and the regional manager is here for this one so I can't even make too many smart a&* jokes, which is hard for me to do. I will have to just stab my leg with my pen all afternoon

LOL, yea...I will never complain to you guys about rain or cold. LOL I don't think I have that right to complain considering what you guys deal with. LOL

I'm actually feeling much better, thanks for checking.

The Monte is doing very well, the new Tranny with shift kit is great. Love the shifts I get now. Nice not having it clunk into gear every once in a while anymore. LOL. And my gas mileage is just awesome...between the full tune up and the new transmission I've packed on at least 2, maybe 3 MPG. My AVERAGE on my last whole tank was 29.3...and that driving it 80 on the highway. I was in the high 26, low 27 range before. I think the tranny wasn't locking up in 4th the way it was supposed to toward the end there.

I'm tired of complaining about winter. I can't wait to complain about summer.

Winter sucks!

I have a bunch of poplar trees in the backyard of the neighbour behind me. About ten of them. Every spring they shed. Looks like snow. But without the freezing temps.

You can keep salt off the car but not pollen... but I agree im tired of winter as well. Dirty roads and dirty cars and insanely cold temps. Today isnt bad.
