The guy I dealt with last night had me set up for an appointment with the tech, no charge for the tech call, gave me a 50 dollar credit on my bill and I was off the phone in less than 30 minutes. A much better experience than Monday night. They are bringing everything new just in case it all has to be replaced.

Washing machine started leaking and the cold water mixing valve went bad. Box on the porch from amazon on Tuesday with a new valve. Going to start replacing the heater core in the dodge tomorrow. Have to order new chain guides for the 4 wheeler engine so the rebuild is at a stand still till the parts come in on Tuesday.

That why I bought better washer and dryer a couple of years ago and keep the mfg warranty.
i decided to do something I very seldom do. I gave up on that shifter fork 3 mechanically inclined people could not figure it out. The transmission is in the back of the Jeep head to the shop Monday. We have 5more box on porch 3 Christmas presents , some sanding belts and windshield forbside by side

Been to busy at work to do much of anything. Hopefully I will get the truck in for a new exhaust on Wed.
Little more luck and early release from duty tomorrow and I will pick up my new Husky compressor to replace my dead craftsman unit

I have a craftsman air compressor for close to 20 years now and it works flawlessly, fingers crossed.
I hate someone else working on my stuff unless it’s just something I can’t do.
Misty rain and little man just woke up so delaying the heater core till a little later, not a rush repair.
One of guys at work has a 1969 VW bug for sale, new floor pan and tires for 800 bucks. I am debating on buying it to pull behind the motorhome.

Early Christmas present!!
Didnt work on the heater core today, I got caught up on some chores around the house since it wasn’t raining. Cleaning the gutters was the most fun, not. We have a 4 day weekend for Christmas so I hope to get the heater core in next weekend.

I have a 30 gallon oil less and I love it. It's kinda big to be dragging around my house since I don't have a garage and I store it in the basement. Works great on the motorhome tires and air tools.

We have a parking pad, one day I will have a real garage. Internet is finally fixed. The water valve will be in for the washer tomorrow and the last 2 parts for the 4 wheeler engine. The guy says the 4 wheeler will be done by Saturday.

Everybody making progess on their projects. That the same compressor I have. Get to the drain is a POA. In my bed project I am up to sanding with 80 grit. I sucked having to work all 4 sides to get straight lumber , what really sucked is I paid to have it milled. Have a VA appointment this morning. When I get back work on it some more. . Fedex may have screwed up Christmas. A doll for my youngest granddaughter they showed as delivered but it was not here. Ihave to give them 48 hours. The kids and will be here on the 24th.
