    Glad to see the site is working better. I'm sure we should be thanking some mods for getting it working again, no doubt Grizzly Adam for sure.

    Actually, it had nothing to do with me. Just took time for everything to get straightened back out.

    Still finding FHC slower than usual. thought we would wake up to snow this morning but no, it rained last night and this morning the sun is trying to shove the clouds aside but I don't think it is going to make it.

    Well it is just too wet outside to do anything. UGH! And the temps won't be cold enough to freeze the ground anytime soon.

    I think I will go spend some time in the garage. I need to do some cleaning in there. Then I can move to doing some cleaning in the basement tomorrow.

    Music time.:thumbs:

    As slow as it is, I think there is some sinister force that has been loaded into our successful site!

    Daughter has basketball practice. Forgot about that one. Time to do some walking laps around the school and burn off some of that bacon, egg, and cheese bagel sanich! I made breakfast for dinner. My wife always says I'm a little "backward". LOL

    Speaking of which, my wife and I went and saw the new Star Wars movie. Tuesdays are $5 per adult and you get free popcorn each. We earned a reward previously, and the reward was a free ticket. I got a medium soda, which was probably 24 oz ( that's a medium?). For $5, so we saw the movie for $10 including snacks.

    Not bad at all, and a great movie for any of you that have not seen it.

    I'm finishing up my ramp for my father's scooter so he can drive right into the doorway, and not need to get out of his scooter while my parents stay at my house for Christmas.

    Here's the ramp. In place too. IMG_20151222_192010456.jpg
    And the bottom of it. 2x3's, a sheet of 1/2" ply and a lot of 2" screws.

    I'll probably paint it over summer, but it's functional now, and not too heavy. Dad's scooter shouldn't high center over the top. Well, hopefully not.

    So freaking happy. Going to drive down after work to pick up my youngest boy in central Iowa (Ames) then head over to eastern Iowa (Cedar Rapids) to see my oldest boy to drop off some things for him at the house he bought.

    Won't get home until after midnight but it will be worth it to see my boys before Christmas. :)
