Snow, no Show, yes Snow!!

Oh My Gawd!! I used to hate the snow when I had to shovel it!! hahaha Now I just drive over it!! I'm sure my neighbor who I share a drive way with hates it even more now that I'm not out there plowing the shared part with my mower. Ah well, after blowing up the engine in the last one and then not getting any help from them, fug 'em... *I* and now Frannie can get up the hill in our 4wd toys... pshshshsh

Seriously though. Now I know what all those jeep drivers were thinking while I was white knuckling it home in the snow. I had a nice enjoyable ride home from work, taking my time, not worried if I was going to slip and slide or get stuck. (I took it easy and didn't get cocky, but there is something to driving a vehicle that was designed to handle those situations!)

The real key though (knock wood) is to actually get out of the neighborhood tomorrow. lol That hill is just plain treacherous!! After that, it's pretty much clear sailing. So like Frannie said, if I can get out of the neighborhood, every payment I've made on this vehicle is well worth it!

So yeah, buy a Jeep... they're awesome!

Chilly Mornings

The weekend ended well even with all the drama (See Fran's blog {Deepwood Art} - link to the right). Helped out a bud with his "S.O.'s" van, at least the first part of it. Got to help out the guys at CR Wings with a computer issue that I overheard they were having and got to kind of sleep in on my second day off with minor interruptions (See Fran's blog again!) lol

It's a nice chilly gray morning, should warm up a bit, but I think the freezing weather is over... but you know how Maryland is. Anyway, turning on the water and I'm going to squirt down the vehicles today. Get all the build up of sludge off. I may even go for a ride if it gets warmer and stays dry!

Short entries are fun aren't they?!? lol

Cya next time...

Wonderful Warmth!!!

What is it about the smell of spring that just seems to make me crazy? Does it do that to you too?? I start thinking, (well I’m always thinking, but you know what I mean), about all the things that I want to do this "warm season". One right after the other, usually when it’s time to crash for the night... sigh lol It’s a wonderful time of the year. I wonder where this season will take me this time.

That’s one of the cool things about these mental plans, you have them and if you don’t write them down or tell anyone, they can change as easily as the weather or a falling leaf. I like to stay fluid like that so that I can bend and change as the days flow. It can be frustrating to some I guess, but they just have to deal with it... lol

This year, I’m hanging out (working) at a scooter shop. Just one more thing that I’ve always wanted to do and never took the time to try. It’s fun as hell, but like anything can also be frustrating under the right circumstances. One of the best parts about it is that I’m getting to learn a bunch of new things about 2 stroke engines and brushing the dust off my 4 stroke skills as well. Well that and getting to order lots of pizza for lunch! LMFAO!! No, really, I love pizza! lol It’s one of those jobs that is fun, should be fun and when it is, then the workers and customers all have a great time without even trying!! I’ve met quite a few pretty cool people this year.

This year I’m rolling into the warm season with a small amount of stress, almost none actually, which is new-ish and a really fresh way to do things for me. Lots of possibilities for the season and almost all of them good this go ’round. We’ll see what we see when we see it I guess! lol

K, ’nough of that for the moment. Gotta get another cup of coffee and have another smoke...

C-Ya!!
