The click and lock flooring is really not that bad to install, it takes me a little longer because I am a better mechanic than I am a carpenter. The main pump for the hot tub has been cutting off and acting crazy so going to try and pull that out today and see about ordering a new one.
You have been busy

I pulled the main pump on the hot tub, I think it was the other one flipping the breaker... Ouch. I rearranged the living room furniture to get the rocking chair in the living room so we can rock the little guy after he gets here. I think I liked it better the other day when it was warm.

We went to Austin, TX for a long weekend celebrating a friend's birthday, so far the only place in TX I could stand, wife and I both dislike Houston and DFW areas.

Had some parts delivered from RiffRaff so I have some new projects.

The cold and rain sure did make the leaves come down yesterday.This is my first fall/winter living in North Georgia so everything is new. I never really noticed the changing of the leaves when we lived in south Georgia.

My sistern-law lives in the DFW area and I hate it, Atlanta is bad but that place is totally insane.

You go Southern! That is awesome!! I still want a Bronco when I retire and don't have to commute so far.

Southern both look good. After today I think Atlanta is getting real bad too. I had to take a friend to the VA in Decatur. We left Thomaston at 0545, we did not get to Decatur till 0805 (about 70 miles) Even the HOV lane was slow. It was 1200 by time I got back home.

Truck ran good except for when the wiper motor decided to go on strike refusing to work

Chief
Before you cough up for a pump, try a new breaker they do get weak over time.

Happy Veterans day!!!

There was this big Orange ball of light that came out in the sky yesterday after lunch, it really hurt my eyes. It finally gave me a chance to get caught up on some things I have not been able to do over the rainy weekends.
