What did you get done- Father's day edition
I was on call until Saturday so I didn't do much. I spent Saturday morning pulling weeds, and trimmimg shrubs in my flower beds. The rest of the day I went to a volleyball tournament with my daughter.
Sunday I spent more time pulling weeds, and trimmimg shrubs in my flower beds. I went to a 40th B'day party for some friends then came home and bummed around. What did you get done....

Got a quicky wash on the truck from the Pantherettes dance team my oldest daughter is a member of. They had a car wash fundraiser at a local gas station. Then came home and did a real wash on it.

from what i see 87 shortwide, i think yours will be more fun too, you can't see very much of your friend's, but i just love the fatties on the back, and the skinnies, on the front, what motor is that, it looks like a blown big block to me i can't see it very good,it could be a small block, what is it?

Moved into my new house! The basement is mostly unfinished. The front garage goes all the way to the other end of the house. I can fit 3 cars deep on that side easily.

Well I'm working my 4 nights so havn't really done alot. Put a set of brakes on my father-in-laws truck and greased the bearings was about the only truck related thing. I did get to play with my fathers day present some though. They got me a old QRX-7001 Sansui receiver. I knew I had those kids for something!

I sat around the airport waiting to return home from 'Mickeyland' in Florida. As soon as we got home we went to her parents house for a 'FathersDay' cookout/her dads birthday celebration.
I got home @ midnight & was worn out.

Well I took my truck down to a buddy of mine to install my gears...on the way my truck was rough sounding. So then I looked down and discovered I have NO oil pressure, I drove the quickest route to my folks place. Oil pump failure. great now I have another thing added to the list. Maybe I'll have my truck back Friday...Hopefully I stopped the engine in time.
