    I should give you her number so you could find out her secrets. The last 3 years she has been on a big push to fix the house up and replace most of the appliances. She has a couple more rooms she wants flooring put in. After I get that done... there is only one more thing she could possibly replace for a newer, better model. Me !! Should I be worried?? :jaw:

    Funny you get married you have a couple kids, you think they will be cheaper when they are off of forumula, or diapers or done with day care or done with high school or college or married and on their own, then the wife kicks in. Do we really need a second fridge in the garage? OK i guess I get that but the instance on a built in icemaker reguires a plumber and it will not be cheap. Then you realize that it is all for guests, I moved for serenity not a summer flop house, but it's my own damn fault.

    I always say if somebody wants to take over payments go right ahead, place is in a trust gold digger only people who get it are my kids. Same thing if my wife dies before me, I live here this is my home but it is my kids place, nobody can touch it.

    Well, I managed to ruin my streak of not getting the truck stuck without having to get out and shovel. I got stuck in the yard of all places. The streak went for 4.5 years since I bought it in 2018.

    The tires are wore out. I do have it scheduled for the 18th to replace them, which leads me to my second rant. It will cost almost $1500 for the same brand tires which I really like. That is with the family discount since I go through my B-I-L. That saved me some bucks. Tires are expensive now. The most I have ever had to pay is $800 for a set mounted and balanced. This month has been expensive!!

    This trans topic is going too far. I cannot read some of the truck forum’s and view discussion on transmission problems, rebuilds, and upgrade parts. Everyone’s on the bandwagon of talking about the nutzo’s and cracking jokes about tranny’s. Stop the insanity!!!!

    Had a killer day with the family and got our girl her first bike, she just woke up crying and I picked her up and she pissed all over me and the bed. Ooo happy days, what an ending to a good day. 4 years old and never had an accident, such is life. Guess I’m cracking some beers and unwinding even more. Life goes on. Hahaha

    Probably the characteristic for which I am most proud of being a Michigander is the fact we flat out know how to drive.

    Lingering in the left lane is for +15mph the speed limit. Transgressions are not tolerated.

    Little people who think they weld power.

    Got a customer receiving clerk making a stink about a certain code not being on the Bill of Lading for our shipments to them. Says read our handbook.

    Ok sonny, read your book. We are not required to send a Bill of Lading when we ship your crap Fed Ex-small pack delivery There is ZERO mention of the Pack Slip.

    Now, YOU follow what YOUR handbook says. Lazy UAW pc of ......
