With what little tax money i got this time, i have accomplished to finally get almost everything to finishing a bedroom. a while back i had to tear down the ceiling to be able to fix an issue with the central heat that was placed above it. whoever put it in cut some purlins and the whole thing was coming down into the bedroom causeing a big sag in the roof anyhow i had jacked and braced it all up properly with 2x6 joist instead of the 2x4 that it had, with a 2x6 and 2x8 L back across them for the roof support. the ceiling i sheetrocked a couple weeks ago and today i tore down the sheetrock on the outside wall and insulate it and hung new sheetrock on the wall. and for my old wooden windows i wanted new replacements but $$ is kinda blah. so i`v decided to buy some spring bronze weatherstripping and take some time and redo these wooden windows properly ,so they might last another 100 years. on a bad note all the house was paneled and they glued it to the rock, most of it comes of with the paneling but what a pain.

Without being nosy may I ask if you were happy with your return? I heard quiteca few people were disappointed with what they were taking home this year.

while I agree with this, once I knew it was a scam I had fun with the scammer. I made him go nuts! lol.

I have fun with just about anyone who is obnoxious to me.

And I have the sense of humor to do it.

Necessity is the mother of learning to do it yourself. Cool that you rebuilt the old windows.

I was about to let the dog outside in the back, until I opened the back door and smelled extremely strong skunk...Yikes! That thing smelled close too, strong and fresh...Sorry buddy, you're going to have to hold it a bit, don't want you getting sprayed by a skunk a fourth time in as many years, you got to stay inside for a while...

Would that be the third or forth time? You should see if they sell a skunk detector.

I used to have skunks come around, till i got ride of alot of milk weed in my fence line. What i`m mostly worried about is that damn pygmy rattler that i hit with an axe, i could swear i cut the f***k*r in two though. It was the second one i found, the first one was in the house wrapped up around the water inlet to the toilet after i broke its head, my wife called animal control and they sent a girl out the took control of it and calmed it down out side and i ended up petting it. i rather put up with a skunk. even after getting sprayed in the mouth, man i bout starved to death, everything i drank, ate and smoked was skunk,

I still smell it strong outside when I checked moments ago but not as bad as earlier, well maybe it is, I just know its a godawful smell and I thought kimchi was bad...This would have been the fourth time, this past December he was hit a third time but on the run so it was a faint hit, I squirted his backside with Acqua Di Gio cologne and that took care of it lol...

Dropped by The high school. Met with a few instructors. The only issue I need to Address is Debbie's public displays of affection for her boyfriend.
And to insure the twins newfound political actions are not done during class hours.

Today is 2/27 and 2272019 is a seven digit prime. The number 227 is a prime, twin prime, prime triplet, safe prime, regular prime, Pillai prime, Stern prime and a Ramanujan prime. It’s a harmonic number and adds up to 11. It’s nearly equivalent to Pi 22/7 = 3.14286. The equation (2 x 3 x 5 x 7 + 2 + 3 + 5 + 7 = 227) is two sets of the first four and only single digit primes. The Reichstag fire took place on 2/27/33 and cemented Hitler’s anointed power.

my long Frank talk with my younger daughter was fruitful. She carrys values that are mature for a 16 year old. She will be more careful about showing her affection at school. We also talked on drugs and alcohol.
About her true feelings about religion and her place in life. "I dont feel drawn to nature as Kate is." She spoke of her friends the beliefs she sees in school Brian who honestly has not shared any faith. Her anger over the new religious group that hit the school.
(something I need to address with the principal )

Cold as hell. Snowing.

Pulled apart the passenger side of the old 'vette a few weeks ago. Have everything all cleaned, degreased, painted. Home Depot sells a (theoretically) environmentally friendly ZEP purple degreaser which works quite well.

Have to replace the dry rotted control arm bushings. You rent a tool for free from any local auto parts store and the uppers went in like butter. Then comes the lower ones. They are a gigantic pain in the shorts and I came within a whisker of destroying an expensive lower control arm in the process. Can happen quickly. So I lugged it up to a man I have known for 36 years and he applied all his experience and skill to pull my wallet out of the fire - all for $45. He did me a solid. I am certain he thought he had seen the last of them but nope. Second to last. I'll just cut to the chase and bring him the other side when I get to it. One side at a time.

So I got the tie rods, sleeves, idler arm all set up just waiting for the paint to dry on the control arm. There is a silver anti-seize lubricant I use that has a way of getting everywhere - you take one little dab of it and it's up your nose, in your socks and breakfast cereal. It has inter-dimensional capabilities worthy of study. Will probably have to wait until tomorrow. Then it's time to install a hellish coil spring that I can't say I am looking forward to. I do have the proper compressor but it's something to be handled very, very carefully. Don't need an extra hole in the car, me, the wall or any of that.

Were I to hit the lottery I'd love to have a garage with a lift in it and do a frame off resto on something. Tubular a-arms, coilovers, LS engine you name it. Not likely to happen but nice to daydream about
