Feast or famine

The Dawgum outlook on life.

apparently my world as well.

Good week, FAR better than last. Two bills paid today, one two weeks early. That means that I will be able to doube down on a payment or two this month.Seeing how its the first week and I have only one more bill due for this period. Hammer time! (Its a feast week, but that doesn’t mean I am feasting, it means that I am making headway,,,. Been far too many famine weeks this year already.)

Has a suspicion on whats going on with Bloo. Not a good thing if I am correct. BUT its an easy enough check. Loosen a bolt and see how she runs.

Huh? Whutcha thinkin’ Dio?

Recall I cracked the Main cap doing the crankshaft. Well, I’m thinkin’ that may have also cracked the block a bit. Enough to let oil into one of the cylinders (or two, possible with the location of where the break happened) NOW, WHY that thought line? I had several bolts loosened up on the front of the block while doing the running valve lash adjustment. NO SMOKE,,, That didn’t start back up until I had tightened those bolts back down, and then it really started up. Every time that bracket gets tight, it could be putting additional stress on said crack and thats why it’s only getting WORSE.

ANd I could be wrong. But if I am right, this block is dead while running. And she does run, runs good, but smokes like a freight train now. Still, can’t figure it out if I ain’t looking, and thats the call for the weekend. COULD go give Burnout a hand on his POS, and may drive Bloo that far seeing how all of my tools are still located in her. Sure can’t hurt her anymore than she already is: just keep an eye on that oil level.

Anybuggers,,, Thats the highly flexible plan for the weekend. Eldest Sis is coming in next week for a couple of weeks to help with Da and getting his future lined up a bit better (he still has tentative plans, she wants to solidify them more.) He has a Phystherapy appt on Muhnday eve,,, that could prove interesting: I’m quite certain I am gonna hear quite a bit of grumping after the fact. Hardest thing is gonna keep him at it, DON’T QUIT!!! He hinted ‘if I dnn’t like it, Ic an quit’ and I came very close to reading him the riot act,,, But I kept my cool and just pointed out “if you quit, you won’t get better, and they may not want to do surgery if you aren’t improving the swelling issues”

more laters,,, flexy weekend ahead and I may get a chance to catch up on the world.

LLLLL!
