My wife had a fibroima tumor removed from her rib cage Tuesday morning so Im sitting around the house taking care of her when the Percocet doesnt have her knocked out.
I have had time to work on detailing the V and the Jeep and hope to have both done by tomorrow. It has been raining here off and on so good days to wax in the garage.
Otherwise Id be at work making double time today. I still prefer sitting around in my "Nothin Box" to work though. |

I went to help my Civil Air Patrol unit with it's part in a parade in Oxford, Ga; pretty much ran back and forth between cadets and the vehicle shuttling water and recruiting brochures. Did that in jungle boots for about two hours. So, now I'm home and chilling on my favorite site.
Life is good. |

My wife bought me a new flat screen TV so I've been watching Nationwide qualifying and been getting psyched to go out and mow the lawn. It's supposed to hit 90+ in Fairbanks today so I want to get that done this morning.

I've got the kiddo taking a nap in preparation for a late night tonight. I have 50 burger patties, 36 ballpark dogs, all the chips/dips/fixins, and $800 of fireworks to blast with tonight. I'm expecting about 60 heads at my place in 4 hours.

I refused to go downtown since last night it was insane. I will probably just chill and make some pasta and garlic bread. Maybe set off some of my fireworks... |

I brought 100 water balloons for everyone to enjoy (for games)
I plan on taking my son to see the fireworks in DC this evening, I tried to get him to lay down for a nap, I was 50% successful... he laid down 
If I take him we probably won't get home until near midnight so I want him rested.
My plan is to head out about 6ish, hit Taco Bell for a "picnic" dinner to eat when we find our viewing spot after our ride on the Metro, and maybe a frisbee or something to do until the fireworks start.
Lord willing I'll get to sleep in tomorrow but with my mother in law down from surgery on her foot and the missus with a sprained knee I am not sure how that will work.
(at least not with a 5 year old in the house)

Did ribs and salad last night, went over to Kent Narrows for the fireworks at 9PM, goofed off all morning, cleaned the garage, Karen worked in one of her herb gardens, just made 2 Margaritas, will do chicken on the Weber later. Rotate the tires on car and truck tomorrow, out in the boat for lunch and a swim.

Oh tomorrow I have to go back to laundry, cleaning, cooking, replacing the fan clutch on my truck, fixing the house, mowing the yard, watering the plants, finishing the basement, and helping people with their cars on the internet
I think I'll go take a nap! | | Cadillac Discussion Tools | | |
