What a dead day around here. Installed updated gm service info into my shop pc. Tried out chiltons labor estimating software. I'm glad I did because I almost underbid a 4l60 r&r by 2 hours. Have one appointment this afternoon for a coolant flush. Actually it's more like flush out raw sewage and put in legit coolant.

Sent out an 15 row order to local GM dealer on parts for my TB, with our discount the prices are about the same as ebay if you ad shipping and duty tax from the states.

Back in the cube after a 3 day weekend. Recovering from a calorie binge yesterday, I meant to post here about it, but was in a food coma. :Zzzz: While at the grocery store on Saturday, they didn't have any of the usual frozen pizzas that I liked, so I took the blinders off, and checked out what other brands they had to offer. In the corner, I saw this...

Hadn't had Gino's in years. And while I knew frozen wouldn't be nearly as good as the real deal, I figured it had been so long, that I wouldn't be able to remember just how much better it could be, so I wouldn't be too disappointed. Got sidetracked on Sunday, so never got around to hooking that up. Decided to have it for lunch yesterday instead.

I usually eat about half of that, but I had a small breakfast, and it was a late lunch, so I was extra hungry. About 90% through the whole thing, I hit that wall, where my belly said "We can't take much more captain!" But I toughed it out, and finished it. Within 30 minutes, I was passed out on the couch, for about 2 hours while my body figured out how to burn through all that cheese and crust. :biggrin: OMG that was some of the best sleep I ever had. Ended up being pretty lazy for the rest of the evening, didn't even think about dinner, and hell, I'm still not hungry now!

So now it's another day in paradise, no one is in the office, and I have deep dish pizza on the brain. Hopefully I'm not leaned back in my chair, and drooling like Homer Simpson when someone walks by. That would be a bad look :no:

Another shop spent 6 hr and was not able to fix the problem, my friend brought the truck to us and we fixed the problem in just over 4 hr. Had to run new wires for the lights in the rear of the truck.

The Swedish chef and his crew rules :wooot: :wooot:

Picked up 37 pallets for a shed project I plan to do. The guy said I'm welcome to take as many as I want so I think I'll make another pallet trip tomorrow. Maybe I can start making lawn furniture to sell on the side as well.

That's a pretty cool idea. Reading through the instructions, it threw me off that the guy addressed the foundation last, instead of first. :crazy:

We have a concrete foundation ready to build on. The shed didn't come with the house so he took it. No big deal since we planned to replace it anyway.
