Toot your own horn Tuesday

2008M36MT · 01-31-2023, 05:28 PM

My car died blocking in my other car in the garage. It’s then that I felt lucky because I have a 3rd car and they’re all paid off.

Went for my morning walk even though it was only 5F. But then I also went yesterday when it was -5F.

During my lunch, I got all the plastic fascia crap, air intake lines/ducts, and cowlings removed and harnessing out of the way so that I can get access to the cylinder 5 coil pack (N55). AND I remembered all the right socket and bit types and sizes to make it happen.

Clearly, I've been doing this too much recently.

Had a great time babysitting our granddaughter. She is such a blast and so much like her mother we keep calling her by her mother's name!

My wife was sleeping in this morning, so I decided to give her a kiss and see if that woke Sleeping Beauty up. It did...with a startled cry and her moving a foot away in alarm until she saw it was me.

I explained that since it was my kiss that woke Sleeping Beauty up, that this therefore must make me a Prince. I could still hear her laughter as I shut the door.

I don't believe she was laughing at my joke.

Don't worry.... that's coming.... I can only delay the inevitable for so long...

A day late, oh well.
Back story: Restoring a “vintage” camping trailer.
I tried the peel and stick backsplash for the kitchen and it just starting peeling off after a few days.
Couldn’t find anything nice, said what the heck and tried tile backsplash.

I glued it onto the wall with polyurethane and DAMN! Does it look great.

Now the issue is, how will I fill the gaps between the tiles?
A toot your own horn post for next week.

Was fun when I was young and then when my kids were young. Couldn't stand it now.

Trivia (pieces of information of little importance or value): the original Disneyland in California opened the year I was born, 1955.

I'm in good with the HR manager so I tend to forget some people have to act respectful

Dude, it's just the HR manager, not like you're buddy-buddies w the chairman, and even that esp if it's a public company. S/he can only protect you so much.
