Random thoughts...

Thanks. I figured I would keep you mind since you've asked about me in the past. As for my latest dip I was working and spending time with people in my area. Trying to take care of some personal goals, too. Did your car situation get taken care of? I know changing tires in the rain is a royal pain! I invested in keeping a full size tire when I had some extra funds just to be able to swap out in an emergency. The spare rim is old and rusted, but it works well enough. It's a 10 year old vehicle, so it doesn't have to look pretty to get me where I am going.

Nope, still waiting in the freezing rain on that tow truck.;P Fortunately, the situation wasn't as bad as it could've been had I my kids or been on a back road. I was more irritated with the failed jack than anything else.lol Thanks for the inquiry.

Typically I try to keep a couple cinder blocks in the trunk to use as a brace to keep it from fully dropping. It's not full proof, but it's better than nothing.

Been released from the hospital for now. They said I need to get a GI specialist to take a look around cause something is making me bleed, but for the moment they don't think it's immediately life threatening. So now I play the see a half dozen doctors game. Such is life and I am not alone, haha!

Theirs something incredibly funny about having a grumpy old man as my mentor. I'm glad I can laugh off pretty much everything xD
