    I know that feeling all too well unfortunately... hang in there man. I'm sure things will get better, or an opportunity will present itself outta nowhere.

    And I need to finish digging my trench for garden drainage before that! Hurt my back working it last weekend since I am digging by hand, but the pressure is on before it becomes a pool.

    File that under "do you want it done, or do you want it done correctly". I just did my new one, my Cobra croaked AGAIN so I went Viofo. Still need to get a couple of add a fuses though.

    Makes you wonder if perhaps the top brass might actually make some changes, though at least where I am I hear a lot of big talk about it but little else.

    Happy Saturday. Supposed to be shitty out but hoping to start the clean out of my uncle's house.

    I hate people who don't look when they back out of a parking spot..have I mentioned that lately?

    I back in to a spot 90% of the time. That being said, most new cars have backup cameras and park sensors. I guess people don't use them just like signal lights.

    Good morning CT.
    Going to do laundry in a bit and then try to lube my upper control arms and replace my front lower shock bolts.
