What's up Gentlemen......and Chris
Been a while, figured I would check in. I've cut my internet time way down, spend available time on garden tractor forums. My local camaro club is falling apart so don't even visit that forum much, it used to be my first stop.
I see Larry is still having Tom work on his junk, haha
Larry, how's the wife doing?
Tom has a lift kit named after him?? What has the world gone to?
Nick, that little girl getting big?
Been rough and busy last 6 months for us.
The starter came lose in my garden tractor I just got in July, had to pull motor to access. I then found belts were shot, carrier bearing on driveshaft shot and ujoint locked up. Of course the driveshaft is NLA for a 35 yr old tractor, i.e. custom driveshaft. After $250 for new driveshaft, belts, bearing, motor still on floor as I need more parts. So much for that good buy.
July 31, I had to put down our 11yr old Bassett, spine just gave out, died in my arms, that was rough. Then our 10 1/2 yr old Boxer died in Oct, man 2 within 3 months

He was my best bud!
Put used motor in Tahoe end of August, oil pressure and cam/lifter issue got really bad, plan to rebuild motor so didn't want to do other damage so found used motor and swapped her in.
Hey Larry, in and out in less than a week...and I worked too
Wife got complete hysterectomy in Dec, daddy still locked outta the house
Got a full fledged teenage daughter in Dec

my little girl growing up.
My father passed on Dec 28 from complications of lung disease Pulmonary Fibrosis. He said his goodbyes pretty much the Sunday before Christmas, then it was like instant down hill. He was saved so I will see him again

Maybe working to buy house form mom if she can't afford it, that will be a 2014 project.
Lost one of our doe Dairy goats couple weeks ago. Pregnancy went bad, one of babies died inside her, she went septic and we lost triplets and her. Got 3 more does due in next few weeks, hopefully better luck.
Soooo looking forward to a better year. 15 1/2 yr getting ready to get his temps

gotta get the 84 Chevy road worthy and still got a job so it's all good.
Tom I can't stand TW either, they have raised my rates 3 times in the last 6 months. They are now charging me lease on the modem I have had for 8 yrs....seriously.
Later
