Sitting outside the local Safeway with the Boy Scouts while they do a show-n-sell fundraiser.

Just trying to keep everything on the table in the wind

Good morning Nor Cal, hope everyone has a blessed day.

Found out from the VA that the problem wa caused by a computer error, so I will be getting my money back that they took from me, and will be receiving regular monthly checks again. Just don't know when it will resume. Hopefully, they can get it fixed by the 1st of next month.

Happy taco Tuesday Nor Cal. Already up and got the vacuuming done, still need to do laundry, and take out the trash. That is the extent of my "chores" for the day.

Well boys, I'm knocking another item off the bucket list. Just paid a deposit on this 2013 Shelby Widebody Convertible, the only one produced that year. It's factory supercharged. I'm pretty excited about it! Just need to finalize the $$$ and have it shipped from North Carolina.
