A Little Levity


Recommended Posts

I am trying to muster up a little levity as I have had a really rough day physically. So here are the advantages and disadvantages of being laid up:

Advantage: After 5 years of taking care of the old grouches disabilities it is his turn. Disadvantage: it is his turn. cry

Advantage: I don't have to fix the meals. Disadvantage: he is cooking sick

Advantage: I don't have to get up and do the laundry. Disadvantage: He did it. frown

Advantage: Could watch TV all day if I want. Disadvantage: nothing but junk on. tired

Advantage: Could sit on the computer all day. Disadvantage: Rained here most of the day, can't get a satellite signal mad

BUT PRICELESS to have your Grouchie take care of you like this! How often does it happen even tho he might not be the best cook or good at doing laundry or whatsoever but how often does he do it???? Enjoy it while it lasts! wink

Gonna try and break free today. The old grouch got the walker from the garage, and thank goodness we had a deck and ramp built for him last year. I am going to use the walker to get down the ramp to the atv and I will be free. Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeha. Then I can ride the atv to the secret dock, use the walker to get out there, sit on the bench and FISH!!! After all I still haven't used up my leeches yet. If I can talk my neighbor into it I might take the boat over to his lake, have him launch it and with the aid of the walker I might actually be able to take the boat out fishing!

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
