……….. Unofficially approved, with your approval of course. I think.

Good Wednesday Morning! It's 29° on the way to 54° today and I'm back to the range again.

-9F this morning.

Boys school doing e-learning day because of the cold.

I always wanted one if the old Shelbys, Bosses, or Mach 1s w/the CJ. I would garner some hate though 'cause I'd have to drive the wheels off those fuggers

Cars are meant for driving. I have never owned a trailer virgin and never will. Hello there.

My neighbor's mom when I was growing up had a green and white Hemi 'Cuda.

It's a L72.

^Just roll with it, bro. Happy wife... and all that.

8, we just had our kitchen redone. $31k for both the kitchen and the master bath shower and floor. Bought a house with a too-small kitchen, spent months getting it redone, and found it was worth every penny.

Happy wife = happy life.

Short of putting on an addition and/or adding more living space via repurposed attic, basement, a kitchen remodel is one of the biggest returns on investment for homeowners.

VAccums -=vaccines

Yeah, I understand that. Kitchens and bathrooms are the money makers. Depending on which route she wants to go, supposedly will pay for itself in 7-10 years. I should be dead by then. All parties are in favor.

but it was sooo great as vaccines

Morning gents

Thirsty Thursday greetings.............

Going to Barrett-Jackson is like going to Disneyland for car guys. There are hundreds of things to do like free thrill rides, demos, etc but there is no friggin' way you can see 2000 cars along with boats, helicopters, personal jets, campers, etc in one day. But we tried.

22F felt warm walking out of work this morning after yesterday.

Went out back to feed and water the chickens. All yesterday's eggs that froze and cracked had thawed and made a huge mess in the nesting boxes. I knew it would happen, but I couldn't get myself to go outside yesterday to take them out.

Good Thursday Morning! It clear and 36°on the way to 54° today

Oy Vey!

My 17year-old niece is having a serious psychological issue, which her mother is not capable of assisting with due to an other family issue. I went with her to her psychologist yesterday and her psychiatrist this morning.

She is probably going to need to move in with us for a bit to get her out of what is going on in her family. Not excited about this, but I must do what needs to be done to help her, no matter what disruption it may cause.

Mmmmm... brisket. Had some Tuesday. Last time I cooked one the wife froze some. Nice surprise.

Doing an experiment over the next 24 hours. Saw a YouTube video of a guy cooking a chuck roast in the sous vide for 24 hours at 131 degrees... then throwing it on a wicked hot grill to sear it.

He says it's better than ribeye... and damned if it didn't look delicious. Soooooo... I gotta try it.

Seasoned it with EVOO, fresh cracked pepper and kosher salt. Vacuum sealed it and dropped it in the water bath at 135 until tomorrow around 11:45am. I'll sear it tomorrow when it's done and see if it's better'n a ribeye.

Yeah... you do live an exciting life. Mine consists of coffee, dump, dog park, shower... wtf do I do today... watch tv, grocery shop, laundry, another dog walk? Talk to the wife when she gets home... have a bite for dinner, watch tv... rinse, repeat.

As Homer Simpson says... booooo-riiiing.

Buddy is prolly gonna need help shoveling dirt tomorrow... that should be fun.

Not the Frank and Drafter kind of dirt shoveling. He was prepping the yard for concrete and turf.

Kinda giddy.

Scored a set of plane tickets tonight for about $275ish round trip Boston to Milwaukee (final destination is Waupun and Green Bay via land) in late July. Me and my two kids heading back to the homeland to visit the family and catch a day or two at the EAA air show in July. Flights into the smaller airfields like Green Bay, Madison, Appleton are going for about $500 with a layover in Chicago or Detroit (likely due to the air show traffic) so we'll touch down in Milw and have my bro come get us. Also in tow, the 90 yr old brother's mother-in-law for her biannual trip to visit.

Should be a great time. Been watching the prices and they have been floating around $400 round trip with layovers in NJ or Det. Blah... didn't want to to that gig. I was happy to see the $275 non-stop come up on my search.

Not sure work will be too pleased with me taking another couple weeks off but if I have the PTO, I'll burn it. If not, I'll take it without pay. If its and issue, they can suck my left nut... it just silly job at Walmart after all.

With that said.... there's folks out there that try to get away with a drinking $0.92 bottle of Key Lime seltzer water without paying for it. Them's the ones you really need to watch out for....

It is going to be another great day on the gulf coast. 45/55,cloudy to partly cloudy and clearing this afternoon.

Morning gents
