What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

I guess I didn't put that very well. Our woodshed is divided in four. Allan is taking wood to burn now from the other end of the section we just filled up.

 

Sound like a 401K returns the last month.

 

Found out my cousin and her husband caught the Corona Virus. According to her brother they did not have too bad a time with it. We are starting to get those testing positive in our area.

I went to the rheumatologist today and he said for me to stay on Cosentyx unless I get any infection. If it gets to be an issue we can do telemed visits on the iPad.

 

That’s the reason I kept the appointment today. I needed to know whether I had to endure more arthritic pain or keep taking the meds and stop if I catch this virus.

 

Oh yeah, I remember. When I bought my car last year (15 months ago), I asked about the 0% interest. they said if I did that, I couldn't use the $1,000 incentive mfg was giving. I had them calculate both ways (at 0% and at the going rate with $1k off). The total cost came out within a couple dollars of each other. I went with the 1K off because I knew I was only taking a short term loan.

 

The reason it’s one or the other is that there still is an interest loan being provided. The manufacturer and sometimes the dealer have to kick in to make up for the 0% loan. They get you anyway they can. I’m sure they will be cutting deals soon enough though.

 

That is what I’m wondering about as well. I wonder if because the Feds cut interest to zero, and the businesses are going to be having a hard time moving new and used cars/trucks. Will they be trying to move anything at a cheaper sale price and will financial institutions be offering much lower interest loans? Cars? Trucks? Heavy Equipment? Not that I would be thinking of anything for myself, of course. Just curious for a friend I know.

 

Add in the increased costs of insurance and registration of a new vehicle over used and the "investment" looks even worse.

 

FYI. A local credit union offers 2% interest rate on loans for 2018, 2019 and 2020 vehicles. The 2017 , 2016 are 2.5%. Both of these rates are for 36 mos only.

Not to bad.

 

Im so freakin bored..

 

Ever try knitting?

I know. I hear you. We're first time Netflix'ing the hell out of it.

 

LOL No, sure havent. This wont cause me to start either.
We/I dont watch much TV at all, every now and again we'll find something on Netflix but not toooo often.


Im getting ready to go and start black topping the driveway with a 1" paint brush or something.

 

Books. Read a book.

Some boneheads around here apparently think that stay at home means driving your side by side around town. Yeah, I know.....it's essential, right?

 

Slept in a bit again. Caffeine going in. Dogs let out. Almost time for breakfast. Hopefully get some chores done outside today. Looks like it’s suppose to be a nice one. Near 50, with sun.

 

I was up at 4am for no good reason.

Today is day 15 for me being home with only necessary trips for food. My wife is on like 22 days, only been out for two funerals, and a few rides with me.

Thankfully, work has actually been busier than I expected this week. But end of the fiscal year for a lot of companies can help with buying. Hopefully today is quiet. I have a conference call at 9, and hope to get outside after to split some oak and enjoy the nice weather.

Stay safe everyone!

 

48 hours of rain setting in. The ground just stopped squishing yesterday.

 

Well took my daughter out teaching her to drive, she’s 15, and she supposed to have a permit but the state shut down the DMV, So we went to a deserted parking lot to practice K turns and parallel parking and driving in reverse..
