  1. Ummm no lol. But she don't mind getting muddy and greasy tearing parts off cars .
  2. Went junkyarding today. Was looking to get some aluminum rims for my car but those were all gone so I got the last set of steelies for $50. Sucks they had cheap walmart tires on them otherwise I might've just thrown them on the car today but I'll be getting some new tires next weekend. The wife always comes to the junkyard with me and without fail there were a few guys shocked that a woman was there getting parts off a car . With the money I saved due to the sale at the JY and a gift card I got for Xmas I stopped at Menards and got myself a new toy, Drill and Impact driver kit. Heard a bunch of those impact drivers at the JY while I was busting the lugnuts loose by hand and told myself I'm getting one.
  3. Happy New Year guys. As usual I slept through all the excitement , wife got woken up from all the noise at midnight around here though.
  4. Gonna see if there is a stream of it available. If John Schneider's involved it can't be bad.
  5. Yep same middle name too unfortunately. When he got into a little credit card trouble about 10 years ago my credit became collateral damage I'm assuming due to computer software not realizing we were two different people. The few credit card accounts I had got cancelled even though I never had even a late payment. Of course since they got cancelled my credit took a hit too. That was a fun cluster to try and clear up. That's one thing new parents should think about before naming their children after other family members, at least change the middle name.
  6. I guess 2020's not done with me yet... Found out my health insurance was cancelled when my wife was trying to setup an eye doctor appointment for me. We gave up today trying to get it resolved after being on hold and transferred to 5 different people who "couldn't help" for over an hour and a half. Got to love bureaucracy . I assume it's because I'm named after my dad and since he had a bit of trouble trying to get his social security and Medicare setup earlier this year I'm guessing they're getting us mixed up as has happened in the past.
  7. Snow day I used to enjoy the snow days off, of course at the time the school only closed when the county went to a level 3 snow emergency. Nowaday's, before the pandemic, the school's close for a dusting of snow.
  8. Snow mostly ended here, got about 1.5-2 inches most of it throughout the day. The sunset tonight was breathtaking, a nice red orange with clouds dotting the sky. Got a Xmas bonus from one of my mowing clients, that was a nice surprise, that's going straight to savings. Got a couple of tv series sets and a few shirts. Ham dinner came out great, stuffed myself into a food coma. Hope everyone else had a good Christmas.
  9. Well we got a white Christmas after all. It's about a quarter of an inch but it looks beautiful outside. It is really cold though, wind chills all day are going to be in the single digits.
  10. How did this take such a dark turn on Christmas Eve lol. Parlor
  11. I see it has locking hoodpins whereas the General Lee did not. The hoodpins are also in the wrong spot as they should be at the front corners not by the faux hood vents
  12. Don't know why but this has been playing in my head since I woke up
  13. Listen or download it here https://adamcarolla.com/john-schneider/
  14. I see they finally put the right body in the kit. The kit I have the body was of a Charger 500 instead of a regular Charger body.
  15. We're just going to stay home this year. I will be dropping off a few Christmas dinner plates to a few friends though. Roger Christmas Returns to Willow Creek is streaming on airy.tv all month so you can still catch it there and probably a few other streaming apps. Y'all have a Merry Christmas.
  16. Christmas If you have a clear sky get out and enjoy the Jupiter and Saturn conjunction or as some call it the Christmas star.
  17. It's amazing how two different tire stores under the same franchise brand offer night and day service. Had the new used rim I picked up from the junkyard put on the wife's car Saturday. Since we were in one of the other suburbs we figured we'd get it down over there. On the way her car had a strange rearend wiggle every time we hit a bump or dip. Turns out the other three tires needed to be rebalanced again even though the tire store on our side of town "balanced" them a few weeks ago when they rotated them. The car drives fine now. Will be avoiding the tire store on our side of town from now on though. The covid pandemic closed another local business for good. The local butterfly house will not re-open. Just 10 more days to go till this year is over with .
