all in the roundabout,,,

Half day at work, progress getting Da some treatment options, still runnin’ a leetle krazy but the day is winding down.

I’m winding down more like,,,

Was feeling a touch touchy in relation to other HoomanBeans in this reality,,, Had to give my monkey a rub in Buffalo (the one that tells me “SHUT YOUR TRAP”,,,, But yea, a play on words for those of you’ns with your mind in the gutter LOL.)

I’m an introvert,,,, too much “people time” and I get a little anxious and short tempered. I know it, and I have a work-arounds, but there are days where “ENOUGH WITH THE STOOPID PLEAZE!” is just overpowering.

Good news though… Da is now on a Steroid/PhyTherapy routine for a month or so before they re-evaluate,,, Got the impression they want to do surgery, but there is so much inflammation and swelling, thats out

For now,,,

Torn Rotator Cup, several Labrum tendons showing tears,,, 7 bad spots noted in the MRI impressions, and the doc was a little perturbed that Da wasn’t passing out in pain,,, She did note that “He is 85,,, thats a lot of time to acquire this much damage and not feel it.”

he sure as shit is now though. We’re talking the man that was still splitting wood with an ax and maul up to a couple of years ago. You think those tools don’t send shockwaves up bone structures? HA!,,, Heck,,, my shoulder is grumping at me right now and not from a splitting maul, but from handshock from a bow with 45# draw,,, it all adds up.

BUT

FORWARD MOTION!!! Much better than the runaround in the roundabout that we were getting. (and just what Civil engineer thought the Roundabout was GENIUS,,, Bastach needs to be tied to a pinion in the middle and forced to watch the stoopid,,,)(note, here in SEKY, the roundabouts are a new thing, and seeing people still using them as a four-way stop is hilarious and frustrating .)

back to work tomorrow,,,, managed to get some stuff done in the four hours I did get in, and tomorrow will be riding the lightning day,,, Burnin’ metals,,, Sparky sorta day. My bread and butter,,,

And I have some side work lined up. Simple too. universal joints on a 2500,,, Client is buying the parts, I’m just charging labor. Taking the shaft out and bringing home so I can use the shop press to do it right. (that press is BIG and HEAVY,,, she ain’t riding to a jobsite.)

Not making much on the side doing the wrench diag thing, but I didn’t expect to make much at first,,, Fact, I am making more than I expected and I haven’t picked up very much at all. Still “in the hollar” workin.

How to fit the time of J.O.B. and the Gig and Da and still having a life,,,, At some point something will have to go the wayside. (J.O.B.) Not yet though,,, this is one of the ‘tests’,,, Much like Bloo is a TEST (of my patience and sanity,,,, but I digress)

Will I have time this weekend to work on Bloo? I dunno,,, weather liars are sayign tis gonna be a might wet,,, and I need to at least look at the valve seals before I do anything else. I Haven’t had a moment at all in the eves to do much of anything but pop her hood and give her a stern talking too. Not that she is gonna listen,,, But I felt better for it.

and I won’t lie to ya,,, very much thinking a new block is the end solution: anything I do at this point is just gonna be a bandaid to the end result. Bandaids may be needed to get between here and there, but I’m a realist. Granted, I shoulda listened to saner WISER heads and already gone that route,,,, What can I say,, Stubborn, bullheaded, gotta learn the hardway,,,

THAT’SA ME!!!!

I’ll get by,,, And I said that when I jumped in with all four feets into this mess,,, Gonna be tight, but when ain’t it? ( I must be part Kat,,,, Dawgs has more sense,,, but then, I’ve seen 7# kats dominate 200# Dawgums,,, You only get that to that level by jumping in feets first and runnin’ with it.)

Not much to talk about otherwise,,, Haven’t even checked my feeds today, and was in mad delete mode when I checked my emails. (nothing of import, just spam for the most part)

LAUGH

LOAD!!!

Addendum: Forgot to mention,,, Burnout wants me to work on his POS for him (and help,,, NOT!) and says he’ll pay cash. I’m torn in several ways. BUT,,, I told him,,, CASH UP FRONT!!! Problem with that, I could find myself hip deep in another BLoo situation and that spells LOSS, not PROFIT. Reason I want cash up front,,, that boy STILL owes me money from when I was carting his arse around to make sure he made it to work. He still owes the Bosses cash (and I saw a note to him the other day,,, “rents due,, $75 ASAP,,,, So I know he is either struggling to pay or just so brain ded as to forget continously,,, I don’t wanna be on that list of “Bill Collector”,,,)
