uggg this week is finally almost over! wasn't too bad until I had to fly the helicopter to Phoenix for a rotor head change on Thursday, all went well until we started tracking and balancing it, flew from 4:00 until 8:30 and than my pilot was out of duty time. I went back in at 7:00 today and had it balanced in 2 flights. (other mechanic might not have known what he was doing last night?)

maybe he was just having a bad day Bart!
I woke up at 11:30 last nite and didnt get back to sleep til after 1 am...so about 1 pm today I kinda crashed...just did some easy repairs to finish out the day, came home and had an hour long nap.
Still having issues with my BP meds...25 mg isnt enough, but 50 mgs is too much...makes me light headed at rest... so I guess I live with my bp a little higher...I dont like the way I feel when taking the 50 mg dose.
My echocardiogram only shows a slight degradement in the aorta valve opening...Dr said I shouldnt have any problems til the opening is half what it is now.

Congratulations on the successful yard sale Mark!!! I am terrible at them. I end up giving everything away!
I spent today "trying" to replace my 9/16 wheel studs on my crown vic race car with oversized 5/8 lugs. I gotta say, those axle flanges are some tough cookies. LOL Not to mention that the drill bit that I got from Speedway couldn't cut through hot butter. I have a cobalt 43/64 bit coming in on monday. that should do the trick.

drill slowly and use lots of lubricant...

we will prolly have 1 more yard sale next month...then it will be too hot and we should be out of crap to sell!
