HI, Y'ALL---

ANOTHER CLOUDY DAY IN THE IN'DN NATIONS, 47 DEGREES GOING FOR 53, MAY RAIN, OR SNOW, OR SLEET, OR JUST BE DISMAL.

LOOKS LIKE A TWO NAPPER, NOTHING ON THE AGENDA.

MY BEST TO YOU, MY FRIENDS!

I got Sue a card and a fruit covered tart. One of her favorite desserts. In the card I wrote a sweet tart for my sweetheart. One thing I've learned over the years. never give flowers to a waoman that works in a plant nursery. Took her out for a seafood dinner. A friend of mine that plays in a two man band was performing at the restaurant. So I got off the hook for Valentine's Day and met up with an old friend I hadn't seen in awhile. Doing a few chores today but what else is new. Sue is down at the Upper Keys Garden Club with a truckload of plants for sale. She had already sold $1000 worth that people were gonna pick up there. Always meets potential new clients as well. Still waiting for the nursery to sell. Just got an annoying phone call to go meet a client to sell some plants because Sue isn't there to help him. Vulcan ... When I answered the phone I didn't say hello. I answered it saying No. Now I wont do anything else for the rest of the day because now I'm pissed. Rigginfriggin sassafrasson shidilibop. Making money is work.

Cloudy here too, flooding. beyond sick of the rain and cold. I hate it here. Arron is still asleep, so any cleaning or what not I got planned I can't do. By the time he gets up I will no longer be in the mood to do it. Nap being considered. Yesterday, he went out at lunch to get me some flowers and his truck acted up, bent a rod. He got it back to work and tore into it. Today he's headed to a friend's later to deprogram and remove the displacement on demand crap that caused the problem so it don't happen again. For another 700$ he's considering a cam and all that too but there's more work he really don't have time to complete. Give and take. Seems like when it rains it pours. We just replaced the tv that went out, I got a small upright freezer to replace the regular full size fridge in the shop that went out, his laptop at work went out yesterday also. It's old but can get another one cheap enough nowadays, or even pick up a used one, and now the truck. I think that's enough for one month. Not counting the hundreds the flea market booth folks have ripped me out of

Morning guys... No friggen sh!t, Letty. I've got al my stuff to finish up and I've had several other 'small jobs' people have come to me asking to do, "In your free time". Yea right...

Been working this morning on a plaque a lady wants to give to her Physical Therapist. My granddaughter who is here for another week (Freshman in HS) asked for a couple little projects and Rosie told I could do them for her while she is here.... so I'll work on those too.

Headed to the shop to work some before church.

...Letty does he have one of those 6.2's from GM? They are having problems with those now.... one Caddy had 4 miles on it and put a rod through the block.... Yeah that will be 120 grand for the new Escalade... oops.... sorry and no engines available to replace it....

more snow so had the JD out and made quick work of that... and what about egg surcharges I'm hearing about.... damnation on that and on those F'n flea market bastards.... sunsabiches...

go get some eggs Guru's......

He doesn't have the 6.2 and due to all the issues with them that he's been having to fix up at work at Chevy, he won't get one either he said. My boss had one and just swapped his for a Ford. That 20,000 mile lifter issue is running a lot of folks off . I wanted a Caddy but due to the same issues, plus loads of others he deals with , Caddy and Jeep were immediately excluded from my list of things I'm allowed to bring home.

On the other forum some of the members are having problems with the XT4 and XT5's.... mostly build quality... have not they learned anything about quality against the foreign competition?

MY '08 GMC HAS THE 6.2. 140,000 MIES TROUBLE FREE. NEVER HAD A BETTER TRUCK.

....08 is the key word there.....

^^^THAT
These issues just started the last couple years or so. You better hang on to that one.
