Alright guys point taken .

After seeing what you guys are up to I'm actually enjoying unwrapping my batches of soil and turning it .


If I had to pick between the two jobs above, I'd definitely pick the brick work. WB I hate doing heater cores,

Good luck
Its done.

I did some engineering modifications to make it easier to work on.

I guess it makes sense that over time all the advancements in automobiles that more and more parts have to fit in the same amount of room.

I miss the older vehicles where you could put a heater core in an hour.

The heater and a.c. are one unit.

Had to reclaim the freon. Its not as simple as a heater core anymore. Got to remove and refill the freon on top of everything else.

You can kind of see it in the pic. I tied a rope to the dash and then ran it over the cab back inside to hang the dash in the air.

I still need to get peppers and tomatoes in the planter walls at the other place.

I need 28 hour days or something. Not
squeezing enough out of 24 to meet my weekly quota.

This one had a little pin hole leak.

I suppose I could've put some that stop leak stuff in it.


I just don't have it in me to cut corners.
My Z and my 62 ford F 100 both have bypasses. I also don't depend on the heater whatsoever in either of those summer cars. I don't like putting the stop leak shit in either.

Obviously my old ford truck is super easy in comparison to what your doing. I've done several over the years in newer trucks and cars . I hate the huge job it becomes just to get to the problem. I had a newer ford truck that was never the same after the dash came out ....rattled like a motherfucker, ended up having to take it apart again and put some rubber spacers etc to make it stop.....I feel for you today


I hate rattles with a passion in my newer cars. Il go straight tweaker mode trying to find em if necessary.

The wife is great at leaving cup holders full of change with a soda can on top ((RATTLE))....think she does it just to fuck with me sometimes lol

Once again good luck

Your an animal when it comes to hard work and projects :clap:....guna get a sign that says WWTD for my yards, so I can look at it and quit bitching because I know you probably already did three of whatever I'm attempting earlier that same morning.

I took my time with it to make sure it was right.

No rattles yet. I took it for a couple test drives today.

It isn't easy to maintain two places.

And the wife twisted her back over the weekend moving boxes around so I could paint.

Last night took her to ER, she should have went to Dr. on Monday but went to chiro 4 times in 3 days who probably made it worse. They admitted her after CT scan showed nothing with pain induced BP 200 over 100.

Supposed to do MRI today, but she started throwing up from pain. On morphene now. My daughter stayed with her all day so I could work.

No I have to go to hospital for the evening and hopefully cheer her up with pics.

Don't get old. It sucks bad when you hurt.

I thought I was the only male with tmj have you found a way to get any relief ? Actually my son has a bad problem with his jaw and has a surgery scheduled for around Christmas , after braces again , the plan is to cut/ break his jaw to realign it then braces for the third time , I feel bad for him .
I miss my boy living near by , we never get to hunt together anymore but at least we can still fish a couple times a year. Enjoy em while you got em at home.

I finished two apartments, replaced two bathroom ceilings, replaced a water heater, installed a new kitchen light, fixed a fridge, a stove, replaced a fan motor in an AC unit, installed a new tub surround and various other work orders this week.

My manager came in late, watched youtube videos on her phone, talked to her friend all day, played games on her phone, set up her new tablet, went home early and was gone for long periods of time without leaving a note or telling anyone this week. Oh, and I found out she's been giving herself 10-15 hours of overtime per week. You know, even though she's never there and when she is she isn't doing any work.

She got mad yesterday because her boss was yelling at her because SHE ISN'T DOING HER WORK! Imagine that?

End vent/rant.

I wouldn't sweat it too much - it all shakes out in the end & she'll no doubt get found out.
No punch card machine that tells the truth?

Sounds like we have the same super, only yours doesn't get in the way much . Mine is like having a 8 year old that doesn't know where to stand to stay out of the way. :wall::fire:

No punch card machine. She's also been ratted out several times to the higher up's and I myself have called and bitched about her. It's easier to keep her worthless ass on instead of finding and training another person I guess. That's my take on it anyway.

Our area manager went on a three day weekend a while back and came back to find 6 messages on her answering machine about how my manager is never there and how shitty a job she's doing. She then called me, I gave her the DL and was told she was out of there. But I guess she tugged on enough heart strings or sucked enough dick to not get fired.

She was showing up so late for work around the time this was all going on that I thought she was sick and not coming into work on some occasions. Like showing up for work just before lunch, or after lunch. It was ridiculous.

I believe having braces is what fucked my jaw up.

I found a good dentist that says he can relieve mine with some veneers to correct my bite.

He told me to pay attention to people with jacked up teeth. They don't have a care in the world.

He explained about how different teeth affects different parts of the body.

It sounds crazy but I dropped 2500 bucks on them, ill let you know if it works.

Its one of the things I get disability for from the VA.

Hazes seem to help a lot. Relaxes the jaw.

I bought some seeds from rm3, he claims they are good for that and stuff like ptsd.




I enjoy my kids very much. I take them hunting, fishing and camping. They help me grow our garden. They will know how to survive.
