By the way good morning everybody!
Sunbathing in the snow is not a good thing! I'm tired of the snow alredy this year.

Not near the machine that I use regularly, but it's free and I never turn down free. Wondering if I might be able to take it to Wal-Mart and exchange it for a laptop? I'd gladly throw in another hundred bucks or so for one of those HP laptops.
A few years back I won a snow blower, but I already had a better one. Home Depot carried the same model. I brought it back and told them that I got it as a gift but didn't need it. They gave me a store credit for $700. I'm bet that you or Susan could do the same at Walmart.

Hey, everyone.

How was everyone else's day?

Get your water pump done, Jim?

I helped my brother and his girlfriend move today. Was helping them from 9:00-5:30 or so. I'm tired.

Maybe I can get him to take me shooting with him as a little way to say thank you.

They got real lucky on their house though.

It's an old farm house (100+ years old) owned by the orchard where I work and where he worked over the summer. They put in all brand new appliances. They just got delivered today. And it's got a 2 car garage big enough to fit his F150 and her Hyundai.

And they're stealing it for $750 a month! (+ utilities)

Plus we're on real good terms with the guy. Steve (my bro) babysat for their kids til he went to college and now I babysit for them. And the guy loves my brother's puppy.

I agree with you, I am ready for some hot weather myself. I want beer, bikinis and jet skis...

Yes, chocolate martinis....for Susan. She says I make them better than the restaraunts.

We are going to head out here in a bit too. Going to The Woodlands (north Houston) for sushi and then we're gonna find a club to do a little partying at.

Piano bars are fun! Hopefully the ice won't be bad and you get to go.

If there was snow it'd look like New England! Nice clear blue sky we had a lot of clouds today and it was chilly though

So they said it had 200,000 miles. Which was really 290,000 miles. Not worth the the $9000. It ran really good and didn't have any major problems. But that is just to high for me.
