George,brother,I'm sorry,please forgive me. This is no excuse,but a reasn for my shortnss is all the nuts we have on our plates...between trying to pack a 2 story house on the fast to fit into a trailer,worry about these convicted felons ad the fact that we have to sleep,and I have the FBI now telling me to be hush hush about EVRYthing so as not to jepardise their new investigation into these people (which is their umpteenth,I'm told),I'm pretty strung out-and then the d**n van broke down in the heat of the day yesterday (was just a rad. hose thankfully),ugh...I orta just go beat them within a 1/8" of their lives and be done with it (dont' think I haven't resisted the urge,LOL! ). Forgive my severe case of a-holed-ness?

Well glad ta see ya'll back again! Sorry for all the Drama in yer life Steve. Hang in there and have FAITH.It'll get better. You GAVE that bad assed little van away,Mj! Wish i coulda afforded it. Theresa's wantin a newer car now, so MAYBE i can talk her into lettin ME get a different ride too. The Impala's NOT goin anywhere, but a nice lil ride to putt around town in would be nice. I was thinkin kinda like a older small Blazer or somethin. Something i can put a 350 I got out in the garage in!!!!!

Gosh-durnnit I HATE moving! Sigh,the big half is done,moved over the weekend,got i-net and cable back up and running this morning (a bit slower speed inet for a few dollars per month more than the old house...),not the fun part of unpacking,sorting and putting in place everything...did I mention we were moving from acluttered 2 story house* into a trailer? The trailer's overstuffed,the mini-storage unit that we rented is overstuffed....even the van is still overstuffed until we make room to unload it SOMEwhere,LMAO! Won't be much cycling here (no safe roads,a bit of a drive to trail),but the lake is a 4 minute walk down the grass (MAN I wish I had $ left to score a used joan-boat o at least a canoe!,LOL),and that means I might spent more time at the bench soo as we're settled. Neck/spinal-crap is flared up preyty bad,but I expected it would be. ANYways,made it here,TTY'allSoon

We're here! At least i am. Mj got so much stuff happnin that he lucky to drop in! You seen all the stuff he's been doin on the ol FB? Tha boy either makein money or he jus LOOOOOVVVVVEEEESSS woikin on cars! He gotta ta be one a the most fearless non proffesional auto repair/restorer guys i've EVER had the pleasure of knowin!. You see how he did the Monte? I wouldn't have thought that a layman, who never BUILT a car on an assembly line did such a perfect job! There's ALOT of parts that go into a car! Putting them ALL BACK TOGETHER, and make them WORK, well that's quite an accomplishment in my opinion. Plus the ol boy still postin pics of his builds on the FB too!

Well fellas,the weekend's jes abouts over,huh? Hope yall''s' went well and youse enjoyed it ;D we definately lost bicycling everywhere here,just too fer out in the sticks,sigh Living right on the lake (4-5 minute walk to the dock) does have it's benefits though (not the least of which all the single Mums in the trailer park thinking how neat it is having me as a house Dad to play cards and such with.....I know,I know,my "lil buddy" AIN'T gunna git me in trouble again,LOL,just window shopping whn they's swimming with us ). Benefits indeed... Been swimming so much that I done aggervated that bad shoulder again,LMAO! (I had yanked the muscle fiber almost completely off the bone mtn biking back in 2008,it rarely flares,but a 1/2 mile out and back whilest back-stroke swimming'll do it ).
