Sitting here just getting mad thinking how I can never finish a task, I have a bunch of jobs that are started but not completed and everything’s piling up. I just wanted to get this carb cleaned and ready for the next fishing trip! But nooooo, darn spring wanted to go for a ride! Well, it’s dark now and I decided since that spring is metal maybe it’ll shine if I flash a flashlight around in the garage. Wishful thinking right! It worked! Found it laying on the floor where I did look earlier during the day. Hope I don’t lose it again tomorrow! Cold as ice! Clique non-member

Lol, if I had more space in my garage it would probably have been easier to find. My garage is so full that I only have little aisles of walk space and it’s hard to sweep the floor. So my floor is full of dead flies, salt, water droplets, and a lot of deer hair! Lugnut, if you lived closer I’d have you build me a shop! Cold as ice! Clique non-member

JP are you in "Delissio pizza" with-draw symptoms since it has been withdrawn from sales in Canada. Time for a new selfie then. With-draw symptoms does have shakey-hands and nervous twitches
