Not that great of a day here either. Got back home from running errands and decided I'd use some touch paint on BLUE for some of the worse scratches; touch up paint had been in the garage and with the heat, most of it dried up, made due with what I had. Then I wanted to finished up mowing the back yard.... got the tractor out.... of course here comes the rain... put it back in; waited an hour and NOW had to mow a wet back yard... not too smart but I had to get it down BEFORE we head to Georgia.... then the cable came loose on the garage door; tired to put it back on and no luck and when I closed it back up ,the large spring yanked on the roof hanger and bent it really bad.... then a wheel came out of the door track and cannot find it anywhere.... Just forced the garage door closed for now... and just for the heck of it tried to open it back ~ feels jammed NOW. I'm NOT touching anything else TODAY!!!

95% of the time when my uncle needs a driver to get him home from the VA, he calls me and I take the day off work...seeing what those guys have sacrificed to help all of us who didint serve live in a free country, gives you an appreciation for what they have gone through. It can really be an eye opening experience.

Jim,
I have had two weeks of everything I touch falling apart. I think it's karma backing up. lol
All I can say is keep your shoulder to the wheel and keep pushing.
I'm hoping that I'm over the hump.
