Ya it has been hard, but I am doing a lot better (kinda). My work keeps giving me a lot of problems and I've really been thinking about leaving.

They require us to give 3 weeks warning to take a day off, and even then they ususally forget and still put me on to work. They know I have school all day tues and thurs, yet keep calling me to come in while I'm in a class! And now that I've missed a few days because of the funeral (both work and school) and they put me on every day I don't have school for 12hrs a day. I can't do this because I have ALOT to catch up with school and yea . I really need to stop pushing school aside and finish it this year, but I can't with my job getting in the way now and I have enough money saved up to pay all my bills for quite a while so thats not exactly a problem...

Thanks.. i had to get my head out of the "car game" for a while so slapping people around on politics did the trick..

The last couple of months have been a bitch.. between the wife getting sick (she is ALL BETTER now! ) and the car I was just blown out on the hobby.. I could hardley even go to car events without getting depressed about how long my car had been down and the troubles ive had with it..

But the car is home again! and I spend some quality time last night spinning wrenches on it and designing stuff.. I feel like a new man.. A broke man but a new man none the less..

Thanks for watching the farm for me.. I owe ya
