Hump Day is here!!
Now that's it's August I can now say that we go to Disney World next month!! I am so ready for our vacation. 3 more weeks and I have been at Yancey for a year, how time flies.

Jacob you seem to always have some type of fun auto job going on. I would love to have a job at a hot rod shop.

Well it official I am an Ahole and Lexie is Bi**h. That according to the freeloads we abruptly told them they had till Friday the get their crap and dogs out of our house. We were trying to be nice and help them out. Instead of saving their money to get a place they were blowing it. They left Saturday night " to visit somebodys momma in ICU". No phone calls, text nothing, but they were talking to our neighbor. They were coming in the house at night. Telling our neighbor bunch of stuff.

You are right, would not be the first time. They gave me a 2000 hour service first thing so it will keep me busy all day. I hate just sitting around.

yeah chief, there is always something dude. brakes on a 1927 Ford sometime this week. I love being 25, and driving most peoples dream cars and working on them. Its also nice to step away from collision and do hotrods or mechanic work too in the same shop.

BUT, I think I want to leave and join a new field or something. Im so conflicted and ****ed up its not even funny.
