Perfect weather for going to a park. Too bad I am way over here, I might just join you if I were closer.

BTW, you going to enlist your daughter's help in restoring your new to you pickup?

Well, we never made it to the park yesterday so hoping to go today.
The fans in my processor cooler died and I had to do everything on my crapbook.
I hate this thing and I am used to using multiple monitors. When I hook an external monitor to this thing it seems to overheat.
So homework that should have been finished early too all freaking day.

Here's to hoping today is better than yesterday.
I hope everyone has a wonderful day

Morning Everyone,

Happy Hump Wednesday! Let's hope it's a good one.


Sorry I haven't been on very much in the past week. Jimmys laptop is down/toast - w/ a blue screen at start up. (LOL!... I told him to quite going to "those sites" & playing FB games) So, now he's using the desktop (this one) & he keeps changing things around. GRR! He put Google Chrome on here & made it the default brower, & changed some other things too. I'm gonna be pissed if this computer breaks too!

On a different note, my oldest daughter, Cammy got a job, so now I'm watching my granddaughter everyday while she's at work from 11am - 3pm. Atleast I can to take her to work w/ me! My mechanic, Garret is a great freind & has watched my kids grow up, so he's like part of the family. So, he doesn't mind if I bring his "other granddaughter" to work too.

OK, time to get ready. Have a great one guys!

Morning FTE'ers, hope you all have a wonderful day.

Just curious, has anyone ever gone out to Rick's Restorations from the show on History channel?
I was wanting a look at his old Ford and wondered if he had a bone yard.
Biggest problem I have with most is they let tv fame go to their head.

Donna, I might be able to help out with the laptop when I come to get the truck.
Would be happy to take a look at it.
Or you could bring it to me and just happen to deliver the truck with it

Good morning to Donna's gang!

Have a nice day of humping.

Slept in this morning, just a light layer of snow. I'm not even going to bother clearing it.
