Good Morning Everybody!

I've been trying to get a jump on the day. I got the fridge cleaned out of Thanksgiving leftovers, took the trash out, got the munchkin to school, wrapped a present for Kasie, then ordered more propane for the house and a windshield for the burn victim. I want to get that thing sealed up so I can start putting the interior in it.

Morning to all, I got a call yesterday afternoon to take Penny down to help with the sick 3 year old granddaughter. Her mom had to go to Memphis for her dads kidney removal surgery. The son in law had to work and wrangle the other grandchild.

Afternoon all. Took a trip to the VA for a blood draw, took Mom’s dog to the groomers, walked Ginger (my dog) and then stopped by the bank to get Christmas Money for the Grandkids. Where'd the morning go?

I do not know, but I know every morning goes faster than the last one.

Afternoon Everyone!

I hope the urethane dries with this cold temperature out there. I about froze solid putting the windshield in the burn victim. I think I'm getting soft in my old age. Tomorrow is supposed to be warmer, so the plan will be to put the last piece of glass in it, (the back glass) and get the interior swapped over. Once that's done, I can concentrate on the drivetrain and front clip.

Good Morning Everybody!

More work on the burn victim today. It's coming along slow but sure. For everyone that doesn't remember the truck, here's a video of it when I got it.

Morning folks, I got to take the grandson to school, now that his dad is sick (probably has what the granddaughter has). She had a ear ache and virus. And then this afternoon I get to take her to the doc appt and then go get the grandson from school later on today and then take him to archery practice.

That was a crispy critter for sure! When I was in the Army we rebuilt a couple almost that bad but it wasn't a one person affair.

Well the doc appt for the GD, turned into they admitted the 3 year old granddaughter. So more tests, chest X ray, covid test, blood test. All that scary painful stuff to a 3 year old. Dad is staying there tonight with her, and we will go from there.
