Tried to return the greenies Moose but gotta spread it around. I guess I missed whatever started the whole ordeal, but good to see you back.
Well I got my lights fixed, got the bumper back on (have to pull it to remove the lights) and come to find out I had a blown foglight bulb so had to pull it all back off to replace the bulb.
Now I'm waiting for a guy to call me back to go move a skid steer for him, and possibly a tractor. The clutch went out in his tractor and he can take care of moving the rest of the dirt with his skid steer. I think I would just assume sit here and drink, but if I go move it, that means mor ebeer money!

looks like you made some good deals there Pete.
and Moose? i for one was not threatened by your postings.
it is just a shame that there are so many thin skinned people on this site that take offense to something that was none of their business in the first place.

Good afternoon everyone!
Moose, it is sooo nice to see you on again! We (the OT) had wondered where you were and I know that more than one of us had asked Jim where you were. Just brush the pansies off, can't please everyone!

Thanks guys. I was just having fun. My posts were no where near as graphic as some the guys posted or as sexual. I made my own posters for the most part just in fun. But some touched a bad nerve. Oh well. The ones who know me and knew they were all in fun are the ones that matter. I just had to step away because I needed to say something to admin since I couldn't get my questions answered anywhere else and saying it when i was miffed wasn't going to be beneficial to me or my personal life. (I dont have to just worry about me any more ) So I needed a cool down period to readjust my mindset. I shouldn't have posted what I did anyway as it really was in bad taste and def not respectable to myself or the relationship I have with Jim and it made it hard to set an example for my daughters. So I will just stay where I can keep things right and keep my respect where it needs to be.
Cris how are the kids doing this summer so far? The kids that stay here at motel are squirrels. make me crazy. parents say this is worst they have seen em.
Holland goes to riding camp the 12th-18th so she is uber excited. The camp is Ramey stables about an hour or so from here. Her dad will come to her end of session horse show and for the first time he will see his daughter jump horses. Something she has been doing for 8 years. Jim will get to see it as well. That is even more exciting to her.

My kids are being typical kids, fighting one min and then best of friends the next. They are going camping with my grandparents on Tuesday and are very excited about that!! I don't know who is more excited me or them. lol.
I hope Holland has a great time at camp and kicks *** at the show! I want to see pictures!

Thanks, Sheldon. That Mack could use fresh paint on the cab, but that's really all it needs. It does have the funniest setup I've ever seen for controlling the hoist though.
Most trucks use 2 levers or more. One for the mast. One for the winch. And some have 1 for a stinger bar. This truck has 1 joystick that controls the mast and winch.
We did pretty well on those trucks.

$6,500 on the Int'l service truck
$9,000 on the rolloff

What a coincidence! Neither can I.
In August I get my PSD. My nice, easy job starts again. RiffRaff East is in August.
There's a lot of good stuff going on in August.
