Sorry to hear about the conditions of the trucks you are looking at and what happened to the 2012 you bought not to long ago. As for being disowned/shamed for buying a GM it is no big deal we have a Yukon XL that my wife drives because she can fit three car seats wide in the middle row when it requires her to. Also for the long cheer trips it can fit all comfortably for the ride. Just remember to keep your head afloat and everything always comes around.

Morning folks. I've got a long list of chores, and I don't really want to do any of them. Someone else want to take care of them for me?

Today is a weather day for me, seniors and the unhealthy are supposed to avoid the heat, guess I get to enjoy being dizzy. Picked up warm weather food last night, cottage cheese, lettuce, peach juice and ice tea mix and the old stand bys watermellon and icecream. Good thing theres not much left yo do out back and my back yard is nice and shady.

Things have gotten out of control up there in a big hurry. If you don't want nightmares, don't watch the news.
