Santa Clause

Yesterday coming from town Tracie and I seen Santa riding in an older Ford pickup.Kinda early to see him but he must be making his rounds to see who is naughty or nice.

Long day today!!!!Got up at 7 and started getting my back window prepared so when Russell & Dena show up i was ready.They got here around 9:30 or so and i wasn't really ready yet cause i couldn't get the back window out of the truck.Ended up taking a utility knife and cutting around the inside to get it out.Without too much trouble we got the new window in and after i finished cooking lunch it started raining.

After Russell and Dena left i got the big brain storm to rotate the tires.The drivers back lugs came right off but i twisted two lugs off and one was already messed up without a lug nut.I finished taking the other 3 rims off and they were a bitch getting them off also.I had to beat the living hell on the front rim with the twisted lugs but i got the big brain storm(again)of putting liquid wrench in where the lug nuts go and around the center of the rim.One good whack and it came loose so i used that process one the other 3.

Made Lasagna for Supper and soon as we ate we had to take a flying trip to Wi. Rapids Wi. and get a new rotor.I was going to buy new lugs but the rotor was messed up on the inside so i decided to get the new rotor,inside seal and brakes.Now she is like new.

Another little story.Got my truck parts at Advanced Auto Parts and stopped at Wal-mart to buy a new tire for the Toyota.As we turned the corner at the stop light the damn ass end of the car almost slid into the curb like we were on ice.Got parked and the tire that was giving the vibration was almost flat.Went into Wal-mart and the auto center was closed(just my luck)so i bought myself a small lug wrench and had to put my bald spare on.When i took the flat tire off, there was a chunk of tread missing larger than my hand.Hmm wonder if that had something to do with it going flat?Of course,just being a smart ass.

Got looking at my Nintendo Wii and it has a slot for SD cards.Got reading about the Sd slot and it said i could use it as a slide show on my television.Tried it and it was awesome.It kinda plays some sad music (actually plays one song but still good)as it got to my little movies i recorded with my camera it also plays them.Kinda cool seeing your picture you took over 3 years, come onto your television.

2:30 comes pretty early so see ya.


Ps:Ron And Christie-I popped over Saturday morning to cut trees but you guys were out camping.I will see if i can get them cut this week.
