June Roll-Call

Howdy All,
Even though we had to wait 31 days it sure came quick. I already know I'm going to spend $700 at the vet in June. What do you guys have going on?¿

I just finished a month of being on-call for a Fedeal district court. Had to call every Monday for 5 weeks. Got called in one time. They didn't like me :-)

Wow. I only have to go one day or one trial. They're lucky to get anyone, nobody wants to do it anymore.

Hey, I'm still here, just been busier than all get out. Busy and the commute is a bit of a grind, but I'll perservere.

My June is full of more work, plenty of making headway on the 3 year honey-do list and a trip to Texas next weekend.

But hey, did I mention that I'm still here?

Hi all,

And hope (eventually) to get my W114 up and running again

Gads! Hope this jury duty stuff ain't a epidemic! Last thing I need right now.

Hanging back with ya'll again. For now. I've had to back waaay off on my home projects for a bit. Been hitting it hard the past 2 years, and need a break. Come this fall, we'll get back at it. It's fun work, but.......

Hey Frank, I think the shop I work at makes parts for those unmanned flying things you work on(Predator?) We make some kind of communication antenna mechanism for that thing, for a company in Salt Lake City called "L3 Communications". It goes up in that forward hump on the front of the fusalage, I think. Sound familiar?

I'm looking forward to the end of Little League season for son #1 and the end of dance class for my daughter. May was crazy between our busy season at work, all of the kids activities and the dumpster rental-level house cleaning. I'm quitting my PT job on the 21st and am looking forward to some semblance of a normal life (well, as normal as life w/4 kids gets) and actually being able to take a family vacation and going away for long weekends for the first time in almost 10 years.

Painting the garage, but I think it'll rain this weekend.

We put it up last fall. Primed the wood trim, now I need to paint. No need to primer the Hardie board.
