Yeah- I was thinking of having the ring DLC coated, but Platinum doesn't accept the process too well!!! (and it's black too)
Yep, she knows the rules well.. She knows that this shop is pretty much my life and that I love what I do so much...
BTW- She doesn't have a sister!
Its gonna take some getting used to, being a real human that doesn't stay awake 18 hours a day is not something thats gonna come easy..
BUT I have an entire basement at the new house to play in, and yep, an engine room WILL be in that basement! (she said the dyno in the basement was a little much)

Junior will be a ways down the road for sure.... It's gonna take enough getting used to as it is, let alone with a little one hangin out!
I'll be just as busy as always here and Beth also own her own accounting business so she has a lot going on all the time as well.... We have things to get out of the way before JR. comes along!
One thing is for sure, my wait list just got longer for engines! Working "Normal" hours definately means I won't get as much done every week!

Good news. Congratulations and a belated Happy Birthday. I kept saying "No doll, you're mistaken, it's two weeks salary, not two months" and now the buggers are saying 3 months in their commercials. Sheesh.
