called it

0615: text came in, “No work, Sleep in”

NOT A PROBLEM, other than the lost income aspect. Seen worse, felt worse, can make do as needed.

BUT

That means I’m workin’

On BlooTwuck.

At least getting to a point where when parts get in, i can start the process to get it all back together. Dunno what gets done today, and a whole lot of that depends on “DRY”. It’s rather cold so there may be some “not doin’ that and getting soaked to the bone” thinks goin’ on. Supposedly, the rain/sleet/snow moves out here in the next hour or so, but the cold stays. Where Bloo sits, drains quick, but that doesn’t mean its DRY either: just not soaking wet. Still, I need to get a jump on things and I’m a determined cuss. Has warm house, has coffee, has dry clothes at hand,,,,

will see.

Shoulda built the daggum shop FIRST,,, And YES, that was the original plan: you know how plans survive first contact with the enemy (and I’m talking the enemy we all deal with; TIME) And in a way, I do have a shop,,, its a carport. its where I rebuilt the top end of Buffalo, where I rebuilt her Rear end with upgrades, have done most all of the work on her for that matter.

Problem: Buffalo is IN that carport, and Bloo is no longer in a state where she can move under her own power. Lack of proper planning proceeds to piss poor performance status. Proof is in the puddin’ here. I’m close to home, out of the way, and that out of the way is damp. Large caliber pistol, meet foot. BANG!

S.T.O.P.

Sit, Think, Observe, Plan/Proceed

Its dark out now, I’m doin’ the sittin’ thinking about this stuff, Observing the conditions, knowing the aspects I can deal with while awaiting parts.

Proceeding accordingly as light arrives.

Never stop moving, even when you have stopped moving. Your brainium remiains in motion.

More and updates as the day proceeds

UPDATE: that didn’t go as planned, having a hard time typing this,,, Fingers borderline frostbitten. Got something done though, ain’t gonna push it,,, especially as it started snowing again,,,

what I did,,,

new headlamps,,, Was going to wire in the other two aspects of them(TS and DRL), but the digits were WELL PAST feeling and pain. Those aspects are not as important as the main point of “being able to see” and can wait. It was just one of those ‘to do list’ points and doable in this weather. Further update: is past sunset, and went out to ‘play’. HOT DAMN ARE THESE LIGHTS BRIGHT!!! Love it!!!
