Bring the news

Ok, so the damage to the wheels was a little more profound than first thought. Upon some investigation I noticed a ticking noise while engine is running. Mechanic suggests get rid of it before oil pan falls off. Never one to go against Doctor's orders, we sold the poor thing to a dealership for plenty more than it's worth (now). We have gotten the replacement and this time it's dady's kind of truck...









So it's the X-Terra S series, a small SUV with no frills. The base model with a few throw ins from the dealer.

We are moved in and have the place we love. It's cheap and the landlord let us renovate (a la carte blanche), new flooring throughout, new paint and a few other things, he gave us PO numbers and said giver. It is great. No worries, small bills, and plenty of room. My new nighbor (spanish lady) we'll call her Dora, is fantastic, and funny, we have a small backyard and a patio. My hpone number is the same so if you need to make call to me you have the numero. Almost settled in, have to have a garage sale and that will be it. Very happy with our decision thus far.

I have an interview today within the Coast Guard for a job I had but lost. I am in the top 5 for three jobs, not sure if I'll take it, but like a wise Pokey once said, make choices only once you have options. Right now I'm bulding up plenty of options.

That's the news, now the weather.
Hot damn hot, real hot, cook an egg on the sidewaly hot...

And in sports:
The Preferred Towing Pythons are in control tonight as they take on the ____ ____ (poor suckers) at home. the Pythons are on a three game winning streak and have secured a spot in the finals. Fielder JIM has two consecutive Homerun games with a grand slam last week. Returning to the lineup Eeyore will grace short-stop after a two game sojourn while "finding himself" also returning to the lineup Wheels will take his usual spot in Right center.

And now a word from our sponsor....
