I feel like pullin a sicky today, but I can't I need the hours, because I need the Ranger I'm lookin at, I test drove it the other day, while it runs great, it needs a tuneup, BAD, the fuel filter clogged while I was driving it, and cut the motor off, it looks like I will have to drop the tank, replace the pump strainer, Replace the filter, clear the lines, replace the filter again, and clean the FPR........i'm ok with it, when that happened, my buddy lowered the price again, so it's all about getting the cash together.
Bills suck, they take all my fun money.

Might I add, that's all I got completed this weekend, I was under the effects of Heat Stroke, Wife not only forced me to go to the Triage, whom told me I had heat stroke all weekend, but forced me to stay in my recliner all weekend consuming nothing but soups and Gatorade, I never wanna see another can of Campbell Soup or bottle of Gatorade as long as I live.

She loves me (for some reason) and the kids seemed a bit concerned as to why Dad was more in the napping mood than the playing mood, I felt bad because I promised them to a park trip, and my wife did catch me trying to sneak them out, boy did I get a A** Chewing, she's a country girl, not one to be smart mouthing or giving excuses to, one of those Bu-Ye-Ba.......Yes Dear.
In my last post I meant to say that the triage told me I had it all week (I guess I miss the weekend that much), or most of it anyways, I was pretty well out of it all that time, said I'll work myself to my grave if I'm not careful, sorry, but how else am I gonna feed the fam and pay the thieves (bills), Wife had a conversation with my Boss (Father-In-Law) whom also gave me an earful, and he's making sure I'm on close watch with a few gallons of water at hand at all times, I've been called Stubborn a lot this weekend, for some reason or another.

Pat's right, you get to a point when your brain will actually shut down from lack of hydration.....be careful, it's nothing to fool around with, drink a lot of fluids if you need to be out in the heat.

Morning Rob.
I'm not TRYING to kill myself, The grim reaper seems to be my shadow I guess.
Well, this dood is GONE, work beckons, got an email, surprise meeting at 8:30, why do I have the feeling my Father-In-Law is gonna make this a Drew Roast poking at how we need to be mindful of hydration?
This isn't gonna escape me anytime soon.

Wow... never know what kind of conversation you are going to walk into the middle of around here!
Take care of yourself Drew!
Had a good weekend... I went down to the Mid American Motorplex in Glenwood, IA on Saturday. They had a benefit/motorcycle ride in honor of the four guys that were killed by that drunk kid on I-29 earlier this month. Lots and lots of bikes, at one point it looked like the line on the highway stretched for 2 miles at least.
