I know how you feel.

Hey man, I was married to the devil's sister for 11 years, got divorced.I usually say I got out for good behaviour, but I know how you feel, sometimes you just can't get in the mood to work on nothing!! When I was married to the X, I done anything to stay away from her.I worked all the time.I remarried and married a GREAT woman, now I don't wana work all the time.Still when I get in a bad mood I can get in PEGYSU, and take a ride and I'm as good as new.Pete Chapouris said" when I get in my hotrod, and look out the windshield, I'm lookin out of it with 17 year old eyes" I know how he feels, Old trucks and my young wife makes me feel young. May your truck always start when you get ready to take a drive!!!!

Later

Maybe that's what I need. I have been so busy at work all summer that I haven't even gotten my F-2 out storage. I usually have it out by the end of April and drive it as much as I can during the summer. I just don't feel like working anymore, just tired all of the time. Every time work lightens up I get more work. It's good to have work, especially if you're self employed because you don't ever know when it's going to stop. I try to find help but no one wants to do this type of work and the ones that want to are just too stupid. I just hired a guy who assured me he was the best and knew everything, I agreed to pay top dollar and now he's turning out to be a dud.

If I could jump in one of my trucks and drive I know I'd feel better. Even if I could grab a DA and do some sanding I know I would feel better.

I'm glad you were able to take advantage of your truck. Nothing like tooling down the road listening to motor purr and having someone give you the thumbs up
