Yeah... Kinda forgot about ol blogger. Been busy moving and working overtime and living... Back in January we moved from way out N. of Edgewood to just S.E. of E-town. Smaller place, less land, newer home and much nicer though I think. We are happy with it. Had to move because the landlord at the other place was wanting to sell and we couldn't afford their asking price (which they raised on us...). So we were put in a tight spot and had to get out quick, but it ended up good for us. Only bad thing is we are doing a lease purchase here too and we can't have the dogs. They are living at my parent's house though which is just down the road so it's not terrible, we can go see the 'kids' whenever we want.
Been working a bit of overtime lately to pay for my nasty Jeep addiction, I was Jeep free for almost 3 years and relapsed last month... Working with my new crew
has re-motivated me to build the Jeep and get her on the trail again. We have a trip planned to go out to Moab, UT for a week at the end of May beginning of June. Should be fun. Lot's needs to be done but I figure if I can get 1 thing done a week I should be good to go. Axle swap, build the front axle so it doesn't break, fix the cooling system, motor mounts... The list goes on. Poor thing sat for a LONG time un-touched so the neglect shows. But like I said it should all come together.In... I guess January I got my Amateur radio operator "Technician" license (Ham radio) so that was pretty fun. Took a little studying and time but it was worth it. Fun hobby. Been talking to people all over the area. In April I'm going to try to upgrade license class to "Extra", which means I will have to take two exams at once. One for
"General" and one for "Extra", it'll be tough but I think I can do it. I mean there's kids with their Extra lic. so a 25 y/o should be able to do it... Right?The other day I had the thought of "Holy crap 2 years till 10 year reunion..." That was kind of... Interesting. Still feel like 18. Don't really know how that much time passed so quickly. Kind of looking forward to seeing how well (or not so well...) some people are doing.
Well I think that's all I have at the moment. Battling a cold so that's fun. Out.
