Good Morning Everybody!

Man Rich. I hope you feel better soon.

I got to come down stairs this morning to diarrhea in the living room and kitchen. Apparently, our dog Emma doesn't feel well, either.

I'm off to the shop to play catch up today. I had stuff planned out to a T, but then got a couple wrenches thrown into the works. Hopefully, I can get back on track today.

Well, I'm in for lunch. Second time is the charm. This radiator is HUGE. I had to cut out the radiator support and change some stuff around for the A/C condenser, but I got it in there. No leaks this time. I also got the clutch adjusted. As soon as I get a new float bowl for the carburetor, it's 100% as far as running goes. .....I hope somebody buys it soon.

Hello, hope everyone is doing well. Just wanted to wish you all an early Merry Christmas. I haven't been on here much due to the craziness of the holiday season in my new job but I should be able to check in more often now that it's dieing down.

Well after them poking a swab up my sinus cavity (both sides) to the point they touched my brain...No flu, but an upper respiratory infection instead.

So a couple of shots in the rear bumper and a bag to meds to take this week, I'll be ready for Christmas.

Ho Ho cough cough.

I think the infection is probably quicker to treat and heal from than that nasty week long flu so many have had. Take it easy tomorrow if possible and let your body work with the medicine to get healed up.

Evening All!

Rich. It sounds like they got you figured out and you're getting better.

CB. Glad you stopped in.

I FINALLY got some paint down on the Mazda. I still have to paint the top side of the hood, but everything else is painted. I'll put it together tomorrow and hopefully get it gone by Christmas eve.

I'm starting to get another pile of unpaid invoices. This is getting ridiculous.

Good Morning Chip! (and everyone else, of course!)

Coffee is brewing and I'm getting today's activities figured out. I HAVE to make a scrap run/steel run today and get the Mazda squared away. Then I have to build Tiff's Christmas present. Nothing like putting it off until the last second.

Yessir RC, sad day in the music world.


I hope my diagnosis of a bad start capacitor is correct on my sister in law's well pump is accurate, everything to it works right, the capacitor tested open, I hope it was just worn out from 25 years of service, I hate the idea of if the pump motor went bad, they're all oddballs with no standard dimensions and interchangability between brands.

Well after a cortisone and steroid shot and some other meds, I feel like I am on the road to recovery.

Just in time for Christmas with the in-laws and grandkids, I did NOT want to make any one sick.

Morning folks.
