Oh I have 2 dozen donuts. Does anyone want one? I have asked 7 people who have said no. Who says no to a free donut?

[adam_89]

All right Red. Your wish is my command as of now. I am at work. It is 7:48 a.m. here and I am at work and have been here since 6 and will be here until 12.

How is the weather in Chicago Stringer?

[redhed35]

Your up early stringer.

Ciara my daughter is playing with the box the washing machine came in,she's 8,and still gets a kick out of the big boxes.

At the moment it's a castle.

What are the odds?

[redhed35]

Well, I have no doubt it will be a hut, a space ship,a car and god knows whatever else she will think of.

I bet if I told her santa was bringing her a cardboard box for christmas she would not be too happy.

But sure,right now she's playing away,leave her off,at least she is not wreaking my head looking to go places.

[adam_89]

That's a plus Red.

I spilled a half cup of hot coffee al over the front of me. Argh!! Not going the best so far today.

[Stringer]

I am usually up around 5:30 AM even though I try to sleep in on the weekends.

Cloudy, messy, drizzle. Chilly (about 40 degrees). After all that wind and rain yesterday, I have to go out and put my Halloween displays back together today. The wind was so strong yesterday that it knocked over my wood stacked for the fire pit.

I like spring and summer better.

[adam_89]

Now I get to drive a stick and I never fully learned. At least it is a truck at work and if I tear up the clutch I won't get in trouble. Wish me luck. Its been a couple years since I tried.

My kids always did the same Red. A couple years the boxes seemed more important that the gifts at Christmas.

Now I get to drive a stick and I never fully learned. Atleast it is a truck at work and if I tear up the clutch I won't get in trouble. Wish me luck. Its been a couple years since I tried.

You'll do fine Adam, once you learn how to drive a stick, you always know and adjust.

[adam_89]

You are right Stringer. I hopped in it and took right off with no problem. Didn't kill it or anything. That was nice. Thanks for the confidence Stringer. Sorry to hear about your decorations. I hate windy days. At work I have to pick up paper that blows off the working face and at home I have to pick up crap that has blown everywhere. Haha

Yesterday I went to Target Store and when I was there I saw their Halloween display and asked them if I could have their thick cardboard coffin that was there when they were done. They gave it to me, so today I am going to staple and cover it with a plastic, black table cloth and put it in my display too. I love doing this stuff, it should add to it. Have to be careful so I don't put too much out there and it looks jambled up...

I'll post some pics later.

Yeah, once you learn how to drive a stick, it's fun. I considered getting one in my C-70 but with Chicago traffic it's a 'bear' to constantly use the clutch.

I would really like to see the pics when you get it done. I like driving around sometimes and looking at halloween decorations. Some people over do it and it looks bad so I understand you not wanting to over do it but I think yours will look awesome when it is done. I will get the chance to decorate mine sometime in the future.

I would like to get a stick sometimes because I find them fun and I would finally master it and it would become second nature to me. I drive a lot of open roads so it wouldn't be bad. I could see it being bad in chicago. Hills are bad enough for me when I am stopped on them.

[Stringer]

It's fun to decorate adam, I really enjoy doing it and trying to be creative. I used some orange lights this year also.

Yeah I learned on a 440 Mag Dodge with 400 hp, it was fun.

Got to run to the store bud, later.

[adam_89]

See you later Stringer.

I learned on a 97 jeep wrangler, then a 86 ford ranger. Haha, then a 80 something camero. They were all fun.
