WELL, JUST A FEW DAYS LEFT

HELLO EVERYONE,

TOMORROW WILL BE MY LAST FRIDAY AT WORK, AND I WON'T BE AT WORK. I'M TAKING THE TRUCK HOME TONIGHT AND UNLOADING MY TOOLS. I HAVEN'T UNLOADED MY TOOLS FOR ALMOST 15 YEARS HERE. SEEMS LIKE A LONG TIME. I'LL SORT THEM OUT AFTER I'M RETIRED. 

HERE IS THE SANDBLASTER I GOT MY BROTHER.

THEN I BROUGHT HOME A COMPRESSOR WITH A BAD MOTOR.

I ALSO PICKED UP A LITTLE WIRE FEED WELDER.

SO, I'M GETTING READY TO START TACKLING SOME OF THE PROJECTS ON MY LIST OF THINGS TO DO! I'D LIKE A LITTLE PLASMA CUTTER AND THEN I THINK THAT'S IT FOR BIGGER TOOLS.

I HAD A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON IN MY PICKUP TRUCK AND I CHECKED IT OUT AND FOUND THE MICE HAD EATEN THE WIRES FOR THE ENGINE OIL TEMP SENDER. ORDERED THE PARTS AND WENT TO FIX IT ON SATURDAY AND FOUND I NEED TO LIFT THE TRUCK UP AND PULL THE WIRING HARNESS OUT FROM BY THE OIL PAN TO MAKE THE REPAIR. PROBABLY GOING TO TAKE IT TO MY MECHANIC GUY, HE HAS A LIFT. IN THE PROCESS OF LOOKING AROUND, I ALSO FOUND THIS LITTLE GEM!

THAT'S MY AIR FILTER, OR AT LEAST WHAT'S LEFT! YOU GOTTA LOVE THE COUNTRY LIFE!!

I FOUND OUT THIS MORNING THAT THE HR DEPARTMENT SAYS I HAVE TO COME BACK TO WORK FOR A FEW HOURS ON THE 30TH OF SEPTEMBER IN ORDER TO MAKE MY RETIREMENT OFFICIAL. SEEMS KIND OF STUPID BUT, JUST SOME MORE HOOPS TO JUMP THROUGH!

WELL, I THINK THAT'S IT FOR NOW, I'LL TRY AND GET SOME PICS OF THE TRUCK UNLOADING AND POST THEM NEXT WEEK.

                                                                TALK TO YOU SOON,
