car

Just washed the car. Not the green LeMans in the pics, I sold that, but my mercury marauder. Its a 2003, I got it in 2002. It is in pretty fair shape. I have always kept it in the garage at night. I have driven it in the winter but I am vigalent about washing and waxing on a regular basis so it looks good. So I just gave it a quick wash, no wax. I have been working 40 hrs lately so I have time for many things I have never before had time to do like, wash the car, clean the house, cook dinner, clean up after dinner, drink beer, Oh, Wait, I do all those things and more when Im working 60 hrs. Must be why I feal so much better these days. i hope to get back to working overtime but it doesnt look good. I work in the automotive field, and as we all know, in Michigan that market sucks. If things improve, life will be better. We are all hopeful but hopes can be fleeting at times and these times feel quite fleeting. oh well, I hope its all good for all the rest of you. Good luck in the days to come, and hey, get out and enjoy the weather, it is nice out their.

Remodeling

I know it has been a long while, sorry, I have been busy with a bathroom remodeling project. I was sure it would only take one or two weekends and I was only off by two months. Not just weekends but weeknight, weekdays and very weak input. I have been working what is a large ass off. Not really, my ass is a normal size, if you are an average white boy. The redo is comming along nicely, I was interupted with the birth of my first grandchild, which I took time to go see. He is a healthy BIG baby boy. 9lbs 13ozs. Did I ever mention that my daughter and husband are both marines and veterns of foriegn wars? well they are and now they are parents too. Welcome to my world. Its a place full of small ambitions, some of which are recongnized others not so much. Worry, heartache and best of all Love. Even though it can be hard, love is the glue that binds us all in this twisted and sometimes most unpredictible world. Now my wife and I have another to consider and adorn with our time and thoughts, a small and most precious life to watch bloom and blossom like a spingtime flower only this one never stops blooming. Hopefully We will be blessed with many more grandchildren as we have four adult children. Anyhow, back to the remod. I am still working on it and my wife is comming thru the door with caulk and spackle. Back to work for me. Bye
