She'll be up pretty soon to take more readings. :)
Watching Fellowship.... We've had a rough trip, but made it to Bree.... Gandalf doesn't appear to be here. Not sure what we're going to do now.
I'm paying bills and listening to a ball game. The race starts at one.
Ick! Tag renewal notice. Time for a beer.
Adventures are somewhat inconvenient!
I think the next few weeks are something I'll look back on with great fondness...but they're apt to be rather nerve-wracking while I'm actually LIVING them...
Are you going to have Van-sama serviced before you leave?
Yes...going to wait until pretty close to the date so I can have the tires swapped for the all season ones. Not toooo close to the date, though, just in case anything needs to be done! Next week, I think.
I don't mind these temps, but stop teasin' me fercryinoutloud...
as I was brush hawgin' I was really convicted of my attitude... I said I'd do it, and then I was gripin' in muh head about bein' taken advantage of... all the bitin' comments I could make to 'em...
then a real shameful conviction came over me... I should do this job outta Christian charity, and with the attitude of doin' it unto the Lord... muh attitude went away and I started hummin' hymns tuh muhself, and went about doin' the very best job I could... funny how when yuh get God involved, the joy returns...
this looks like a photo of joint headquarters staff weenies... REMFs in spades... the Marine in the center with a foldin' stock AKM is a giveaway...
as far as gettin' confiscated from the grunts, I imagine that few items actually obtained by the guys doin' the fightin' remained their custody... bastige REMFS...
g'nad - well said. You're right.
I got two more folding nylon camping chairs for Shoot-moot today for a good price. I've now got an even half dozen now. Two camo, two blue and two green. Plus the blue sun-screen.
Fargin' customers should all go away--- then I have no job. Hmm...
Be sure to take lots of pictures!
;o)
You can always count on your friends to tell 'em to blow it out their shorts!
I'm just kiddin'...you know that. ;-)
I'm that way about loaning people money. I either give them the money or not. If they pay me back, I'll take it with appreciation, but if they don't, I'm not disappointed and it doesn't ruin our friendship. That's just me, though.
Just checkin' in real quick. Steve had to go to Auto Zone for a new headlight for the truck. Then we're back to working on the Bug. You wouldn't believe what I got done yesterday...it is truly just about gutted.
It looks like an upside down collander. :-( Gonna need a lot of fiberglass and sheetmetal!
Must be today's theme. I just finished a Sunday School class that basically helps you identify and define your spiritual gifts and style of service. It's designed to help you be more effective in ministry mainly thru the local church.
Got a good dose of remindin' that "it's not all about ME."
I hate that...
;-)
Well the grass has greened up enough for Miss Kitty to chew on it...waiting for the barfing to start.
We got three or four inches over night, but amazingly the roads are almost clear enough for me to venture out. Which is good because I have to get to school to do the backups.
But bah, I want warm weather and green things.
aaahhhh.....to dream.
I found the recipe book that came with my mini-donut baker. :)
mine!
mine!
