    Morning
    Interesting week in store.
    Going to put in for racing dates.
    Well since they changed how we get vacations I now only have two weeks available instead of 3.
    One date is the same as the only senior person to me.
    Plus I have to work Labor Day weekend.
    So I’m sure the two shop foremen will try to put the nix on that.
    Been going there for many years and I’m not going to work on a car all year and not go.
    So power struggle will ensue.
    Seems like the senior guy always pics my time for his vacations too.
    So since I can’t work that weekend they will charge me a sick day.
    Takes an act of Congress to get time off.
    Foremen even bitched to a kid that was sick a couple of days and told him he can’t be taking all this time off.

    That being said.
    The service manager is a great guy.
    He said leave the foremen to me and we will adjust the schedule if necessary.
    Still going to be a shit show.

    On a different note.
    Carol and I had a great day yesterday..
    Lots of stuff done.
    Even cleaned the inside of the Jeep.
    Outside is going to be a chore..

    Raining like hell.

    Be safe people

    Looks to be a nice day. The snow should all melt, again. Lots of rain after Tuesday.
    Looks like master bathroom is scheduled for remodeling in August, hopefully :fingerscrossed:.

    Good morning.
    Wife's friend and her kids stayed over last night. Girls are sleeping on the couches. One is sleeping in the corner of the couch where I drink my coffee....I haven't had my coffee yet there's a fresh pot waiting for me. Such an innocent child teetering on such dangerous situation......

    Good morning. I guess I'll just take my coffee to work and wake up in my truck.

    @Tacoma Mike , getting tires rotated today ( front to back!) . Will report back sometime today.
    Could you answer two questions please?
    Will a ‘14 TRD Pro stock front coils and shocks fit my ‘08? Coworker has a set with 30 miles on them for me if I want.
    Same question in regards to a skid plate. They look nice and I’m looking for an upgrade there as well. Will it fit?

    Thanks Mike or whoever would know these answers.:D

    So I guess it’s three questions.
    Where would I find a skid plate and how much should I expect to spend?

    Oh yeah, mouse report.

    Caught 2 more mice, in December, after we left.

    Had to toss the traps as the mice became part of them.

    Want pics?
