Morning to all. I hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Well, the job is not perfect fit for me. I can easily do the tech support. I am just not a people person. When getting them on the phone they are usually already stressed and about to blow. This already puts me in a spot where I want to hang up on them. But if it's for the money we need I have to make sacrifices I suppose.

Mat: At the rate she is growing the petting zoo, she might be charging admission in pet food. Bag of cat food gets you in for a day pass. Big bag of dog food gets you a weekend pass. Bail of hay or bag of oats can get you a week pass.

Morning everyone. I hope everyone has a great day.

Got the wife off to the airport this morning. She is going back to Florida for a few days for her mother's retirement party. Bunch of BS if you ask me, but whatever.

Pat: I love the progress you are making on the truck. What are you going to do with the underdash AC?

GOOD MORNING NEVADA, Have a good Hump day unless you have other plans.
Greg, You did the right thing. You won't win on those things.

Ah, I see you have no adult supervision for a few days....LOL

Thanks Greg! I didn't have the original AC unit. I just know what they look like. Otherwise, it would be up for sale!

Yup, just the minion to watch over me. The she ran off to a friends house for a sleep-over. Dang the draw of friends and swimming pools!
I am sure the wife felt safe leaving me unsupervised since I have no $$ and no local friends to get in trouble with.

I hope everyone has a great day.

I do love taking her to the park, but unfortunately the park by us isn't open early enough for us to take her and then go to work. So, we have to wait until night time. That's the only thing I hate about the summer. You either have to do things butt azz early or late at night once the sun goes down.

Donna - how much is admission? LOL
Free...so long as you take one lovable lil' dog or cat home with you. LOL!

Goodmorning Guys,


Happy Thursday.

What a hectic week!

Karl & Kaedon started back to school Monday & it's been go, go, go ever since. I need this...I need that... I need money for this or that...Sign this...fill this out...ACK!!!
Now Karl needs Football cleats & the other protective garments to be able to practice/play.
Then, Kaedon tells me that she joined Band for Choir purposes. GREAT! Then she informs me she picked the Trombone as her instrument. I said..."Forget it! You're dropping Band & switching to PE!" I'm not forking out a few hundred bucks for a musical instrument to buy or rent that she can barely carry, muchless only use a year or two because she'll lose interest. Either they supply it FREE, or they can kiss my ***!!!

Well, hope you have a awesome Thursday.

My wife started playing the flute at 12, she joined the Army and played professionally in the Army Band in Japan and Georgia for 7 years. Then started going to school for an education degree, which the Army is paying for.
Her flute cost $5000 and her piccolo cost $3000, but she is making a career out of it, so it is worth it I suppose.

Good morning Nevada, happy Friday!!


Donna, I feel your pain, girl. Same with us, seems we're always heading for the store for something they need, or writing checks for this and that!

Ain't that the truth. Especially at the beginning of the school year. Between clothes, shoes, backpacks, school supply lists, haircuts, ect...it sucks to say the least.

Well FTE'ers, Friday is here. I hope everyone has a great day and following weekend.

Mine are all short. This is the last one before school starts for the minion. We still have lots to do to get her ready.
