Spike Posted April 15 Report Share Posted April 15 Get to feeling better Roger, hopefully the break in rain will help. Took the G8 to the first local cars and coffee meet yesterday. Might also be the last cars and coffee meet this year lol. A lot of idiots showed up acting like idiots, revving their motors, revving competitions, burning rubber leaving the meet, doing drugs etc... So yeah will not be surprised if the rest of the meets are canceled, this is the 4th or 5th parking lot that the organizer has had to ask permission for in the past decade because idiots got them kicked out of the other lots over the years. Was a few very interesting cars that showed up. A Citroen DS3, 60's Lincoln Continental that was lowered 3 inches with stock rims and original hubcaps, 90's Miata with a 90's Ford 5.0 cobra engine, an old Cushman scooter.

RogerDuke Posted April 16 Author Report Share Posted April 16 Finally started to feel good physically but had a hard emotional hit today. I turned 64 (7 days after Bo turned 64) and it hit me that I will never again get a birthday call from my daughter. I'm sure when Father's Day comes around I'll get knocked down again since she was my only child.

Spike Posted Saturday at 12:09 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 12:09 PM SMH, The predicament my brother in law got himself into. Turns out they didn't roll the $5k into the new car loan so he is making 2 car payments a month, one for the totalled car. He asked me yesterday if my credit union does loans for for his predicament, I told him all he can do is try as I didn't know. I couldn't believe it. If he doesn't get a $5k loan quick he's going to lose everything. I can't wrap my head around how he got himself into this, my God.

RogerDuke Posted Saturday at 11:47 PM Author Report Share Posted Saturday at 11:47 PM That stinks Spike. I felt better for a day but it didn't last. Ended up going to the doctor yesterday and got a med called Azithromycin. Having congested lungs for 11 days is no fun. My wife is still sick too.

Spike Posted Monday at 07:03 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 07:03 PM Glad to see your doing a little better Roger. There's been a lot of new viruses this past winter/spring season. I expect mother's day is going to be a short visit because the m-i-l will lay a thick guilt trip on us if he doesn't get the loan. But we weren't the ones who jumped off a cliff without a parachute. We'll give them probably a $100 grocery store gift card to help out but we're not going to empty our savings to bail him out. Can't wrap my head around it still. I mean my God he basically committed financial suicide. His new car is in his mother's name so if he files for bankruptcy they probably won't take it away but still.

I explained to her that she would have to find a different car dealer. Hobie Hartkins and Skipper Duke 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always know I'm here for you and you have all my info on contacting me if you ever want or need to! My brother's birthday was on April 15....he would have been 56!! Hard to believe!

RogerDuke Posted Wednesday at 11:14 PM Author Report Share Posted Wednesday at 11:14 PM Two weeks now and lungs still congested. I've never had something like this. Just finished my antibiotics yesterday. In a couple days I might be heading back to Doc Appleby again. The wife finally went to the doctor today. One more cold day tomorrow and summer will be here. I think I've already said that 3 times this spring. Skipper Duke, Spike and Hobie Hartkins 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
