Everybody in a "Turkey Coma" or what? dunno

 

I've gotten more done around here in the last 3 days than the last 3 months. Garage is Clean (!!), Snowblower's prepped, Wagon alloys/tires are in the shed, yard "art" put away, Christmas Lights are up...

Now to attack the basement workshop (ugh) engarde

We were gone until last night. I have plenty of shop work to do on my mowing tractor. I broke up the mulching drum and cutting hammers pretty good on the last day of use.

Everyone will probably hear the hitsfan when I get up the courage to tell my wife I not only bought yet ANOTHER vehicle but a trailer to go 1300 miles to bring it home...hyper If all 'yall hear what sounds like a sonic boom sometime in the next week, don't be alarmed.

Been busy packing. Think about how much crap is in your shop/garage. So far I have filled 18 of those heavy duty plastic parts totes I borrowed from work. I also completely filled the chevelle's trunk and interior with the more fragile stuff. I'm also going to have to unload my tool box to get it into the truck, it needed a little reorganization anyway. I have @ 20 paper ream boxes from the computer room/den and a crapload of big boxes. Less than 3 weeks til close and haven't touched the kid's stuff yet.

Snowblower is ready. Reflectors are installed along the driveway. Belly is full 'o turkey.

Today we'll put up Christmas decorations.

So, lots going on...just none of it is Chevelle-related.

Just got back this afternoon after leaving after work on Wed...  Let's just say I'm ready to go back to work after all the family time.  Enuf said!

The out-laws didn't have internet access, so I wasn't on the forum much other than using my phone, and that's a pain to post with.

Hope to spend some time in the man cave in the evenings this week to have some alone time and recover from all the 'togetherness'.  cool

Felt great for the first time in a long time, went to the shed to pick up tools and sweep up dirt. Well that lasted about 30 minutes and back was killing me again. So who the hell knows when I will get wifes car ready for frame rack and get it together now that I have the parts.

Did some work on the non-project cars (aka: daily drivers), put new front axles in my wife's Bonneville, new front brakes on my daughters car, new faucet in kitchen after the other one mysteriously broke and no one knows who broke it?

Son is home from Kuwaitt until the 4th, so got to spend time with him, and my wife's brother from Council Bluffs, IA visited for a day. A lot happening over last few days, now back to work I guess.
