Hi `Justin,
Good luck on your last 2 final... Wish you a good break from the books/lessons....Life is a constant learning experience, but college is still a great investment of your time/life 4-Sure...Good Luck
============================================
Hi Keane, Wish you SunShine & easy classes at college..
How are you adjusting to the night shift...?
I haven't been able to find the center caps that you are looking for....I will search again on a break from work.
=======================================
I was suppose to be off work, but it hasn't happened yet
My beach bum friends are at the river fishing now & I hope
to finish work soon.
* Rick, did you go for your walk ? / ?
Peace/Happiness to the readers of my words....

Good afternoon MCF. I'm getting ready to jump in the shower and get ready for work. Mickey Mouse is patiently waiting for me to show up. I've still got this dam head cold. It drains me and it sucks. Happy hump day to most of you, my humpday is still a day away. Susan finished her proficientcy exams at school yesterday. She is almost at the end. She has six classes left and two more exams and then her apprenticeship will be over. If it wasn't for the fact that this is what you have to do to get this engineering job, it has been a huge waste of time and effort. Oh well she will get a big raise in about sixty days and then again each June for the next four years when she reaches top out. With each raise our life gets easier.

It was the front bumper that was recently painted. The back bumper had the streak down the side, and the body guy got it out with his special cleaner. The clear coat was still intact. I'm sorry to say that his next job is replacing my right front fender - where the speed guard fell on it a few weeks ago (one of those things made from metal pipes that cautious people put on the side of the street to keep people in Montes from speeding). I'm trying to be philosophical about all these dents and dings - after all, I drive it 20,000 miles a year and its my only means of transportation. And it still looks pretty darned gorgeous!!!!!

thanks for the wish but it doesn't look very good. No class tonight but i do have work. I have no problem staying up, i have to get used to the job itself, its a bit more labor intensive than im used to. This week and the coming weeks are crucial, im now back to school. i have to see if i can pull off working the night shift and going to school. If i cant i gotta quit the job. School is more important in the long run. Thanks for looking for those center caps, i come across some on ebay, but i need to get the wheels themselves first.

Allergies are acting up bad today, stuffed/runny nose, coughing etc... Just cant wake up, hope i get some more energy by the time work rolls around or its gonna be a long night. Oh and my fog lights came today, a day early. As soon as the picture i took shows up in my email i'll throw it on here.

Hi `Mike,
Thanks for your post & pic's...They sure don't build them to work on ....Not much room 4-Sure...Wish you a E.Z. install on your headers...Good Luck..
===========================================
Hi `Angie, good luck on getting your Monte the way you want it 2 `be...It's the price everyone must pay to keep their Monte's in top shape....Not easy 4-Sure, but to me it's worth it.....
==========================================
`Keane, I hope you get use to the physical part of your `job..
I love unloading trucks & moving boxes around...It's like I'm getting paid to work `out... I think once your body adapts that you will feel & see the difference 4-Sure

I also hope that you can manage work & school...I know it's not easy for sure, but I've learned that nothing GOOD in this life seems to be easy 4-Real..(At-least not 4 me)...
Wish you the best on getting 2 where U wanta `be 4-$ure
==========================================
`Gregg, wish U a feel all better
===========================================
`Rick, it was great to read that you took your walk...Oh, I did take a power `nap & did not go fish'in with my friends. I usually have to go to work @ 7PM, but 2night I don't until 11 PM,(no trucks until midnight) so I will crash shortly & get some rest/recharge...Thanks for your concerns...It's all good..., but I was look'in 4ward to going fishing with my friends...Another day, another time (I hope)..
Peace/Happiness 2 EveryOne...EnJoy your `eve/life
