    Mrs Green is on the road to visit her mother for a few days.

    In her absence I have a full week planned consisting mostly of sleeping in the chair with the cat and eating unhealthy amounts of red meat -- with onions! :devil:

    Oh man! :)

    I got Mrs Green an electric heated throw blanket for Christmas, just put it on here in the chair.
    This thing is luxurious -- the cat might be out of a job... :laugh:

    Finding a vacuum leak looks to be fun just getting them on correct would be tedious

    Loaded the tractor and bush hog for tomorrow, decided to grease all of it. The last fitting came apart on the rear pto universal joint. Of course it’s 8mm and I didn’t have one. They didn’t have an angle fitting so I had to get a right angle attachment and also a needle grease fitting, cause I didn’t have one :D

    Ah yes, '80s emissions tech. My parents had a '88 Isuzu Trooper with the 2.6 that was a similar pile of vacuum lines. I learned the very valuable lesson of tagging the lines and their corresponding ports working on that thing.

    Re: Poll

    No resolutions, but I do sit down and write down my goals for the up coming year. I feel like having it in writing gives more of an impetus to accomplish them.
