Howdy! Another unseasonably nice day here - low 50's, which is pretty good for mid-November. Gonna take a nosedive in the next couple days, though. I could've kept the Vette out for a couple more weeks, but at least the garage is cleaned up a bit now.
Enjoy your day, all! |

Good Morning CGs!
Up with rugrat #2. He had a morning surprise for me when I went to change his diaper...lol. He's a ball of energy running around right now. I have a lot planned for the next few days. This morning I'm waiting for one person to paypal me for some kids items I sold on ebay. Once that's done I can go to the post office. I'd like to cut the grass one more time this season, put away the lawn furniture, clean the garage, change the oil in two cars, rotate the tires on the truck, wash the vette(?), and a few other errands I have to run. I should go take care of the little one. Hope everyone has a great day! Matthew |

Morning guys....The wife will put Christmas up this weekend. Thanksgiving is the normal time for us, and since we are leaving on Tuesday next week, it HAS to go up before. Since, when we get home it will be after Thanksgiving. ;shrug.
Weather appears to be holding here as well, low 60's today. |

Weather is nice where I am too, the beach here is cloudy but the sun's out at PCB so I might take a nice scenic drive over there along 98. Not sure what I'm gonna do yet. Hope everyone has a great day.

Raining here already so some of my plans got quashed. Wife decided to go to the store, I'm with the rugrats. #1 should be at school, but she got sick at breakfast and blew chunks all over herself and the chair. So I washed her up and she's staying home today. Still need to make it to the post office.

Hello gang.
My wifes grandmother passed this morning at 04:30. Of course the first one they call is my wife. She is the responsible go to girl when anything needs to get done. Pisses her off because she has a brother and sister that don't work and here my wife just worked 19 days straight and they pile it on her. That's why it's good to suck at everything. Noboody will call you to do shit. It's going to be a very busy week. I went and picked up the stock from the plant sale this morning. I have to move some plants later. Pretty much I have to try to do my stuff, her stuff and any other stuff that comes up. It's gonna be a very busy week. The funeral should be tomorrow. Jews don't screw around. Die today, bury tomorrow. I'll be with the family throughout the day Tuesday. Oddly, my wifes brother died 4 years ago today. |

It's comforting to know that our senators and congressmen have alternatives and don't have to rely on their meager salaries to get by:

I don't know Lou but I did talk to him right before that run, discussed the differences between the Street surface (crowned) and a racetrack. That vid was 2010, this year he shaved off a couple seconds and set a record for straightaway speed - 148 mph.  |

Thanks for the condolences gang. My wife, MIL and especially my FIL are taking it hard. My FIL is the last of his familys lineage. He never had any kids of his own. He married a woman with 5 kids. He is really my wifes stepdad but he has always been there for my wife and me. His mom and dad were like grandparents to both of us. He is sad but grateful for the years he got to spend with her. They have always been pretty close. It's never easy.
