Everything the hard way

[JUSTA6]

So I went to grab my spare engine stand and it's in the rafters of the garage.  Right above the hood of the GTO.  I can grab it.......awe hell no.  Sure as I'm sittin here one of the pieces will fall on the hood.  Drop it down off the blocks while topping off the battery and pulled it out into the cold but beautiful Sunshiny winter day.  Stand is down without incident and GTO is back in the garage, will mount the V6 for the Sunbird so I can start on that N have it ready for spring shows.  Bonus.....GTO makes a hella ICE melter.

LOL! Justa, my engine stand is lying on the floor of my garage mahal mezzaine, in pieces. No worries about anything. I would have let you borrow it if push came to shove!

It's been rough, but finally getting back to some sense of normal.   Firing Justa66 put a smile on my face I couldn't wipe off.  Wife came home N had to ask what I was up to.  Smile is un-natural L8tly.😎

Justa - you're doomed, doomed, doomed pal! 

I think there is more re-modeling in your future.

I justa saying her smiling unnaturally is a sign of impending doom of some sort buddy! I'm not wishing you ill, mind you. I'm warning you! The way your luck has been running lately, something is bound to jinx you.  A new kitchen perhaps? New appliances? New living room set (big screen - YES!)?

My wife is talking about re-doing the kitchen cabinets, counter tops, and perhaps a new stove, dish washter and fridge. New windows. New sofa and chairs. I'm not immune either.

Re read....  I haven't had much to smile about last couple months.  She comes home home to find me smiling and instantly wonders whats up.  Guess I owe you a phone call.  Been awhile.
