The mother in-law is coming in today for the weekend so I went over and mowed her grass and clipped the hedges yesterday after work. My weed eater finally died after 13 years.

Installed our 3rd transmission of the month yesterday. We are waiting on one part to come in in order to finish it up. I feel beat up after installing one. Heard there is another truck coming in sometime this week for one.

Are you the only one doing them. Just think when you leave there you could buy a serive truck a couple 100,000 in special tools and do mobile service calls

So I log in to the website this morning on my work computer. I start making fastpass selections at exactly &AM when the window opens. Then about half way thru I get an : oops there was a problem. WHAT THE HELL??? So I back up, no luck, it eventually boots me off and I have to log in again. SO I jump to the Disney app on my phone and continue to make selections while I try to get the site to work on the laptop. I finally get back in on the laptop and it wants me to update my contact info and sets my language to English, are you freaking kidding me??? I finish making my selections on my phone and then finally get back on with the laptop. I double checked and everything looks good.

I didn't get everything I wanted but there is no way to see and do everything so I'm good. I left wiggle room and tried not to tie us down to a strict schedule.

I hope you allowed enough time to get across the park.

Saw my Ortho dr today. Lt knee and hip been bothering me all month. He gave me a shot in the knee last week to see if was my hip causing the knee pain or if was a knee and hip pain. It was a knee and hip. I have known since 08 when the rt hip was replaced that at some point the lt would have to be done as well. That time has come, going to do it post cruise.
Got to get an MRI on the knee to see if I get a 3rd scope on that knee to repair a torn minicus.

So I have 2 surgeries before the end of the year one next month for ED now a hip in Nov

I left plenty of time as long as I can get the wife and daughter moving in the morning.

Sorry to hear about the surgery. I'm sure they won't keep you down for long.

Funny we go on vcacation to relax but we pack as much stuff as we can in each day.

Lexie cant understand why I am having the surgery. She would rather live in pain then have surgery. Told her it the mechanic in me , when a part is broke or worn out you fix it or replace it
