Man getting motivated is hard

Me too. I set this rack of 3/8 sockets and slide them under the car. Then I grab my 1/4 inch rack of sockets and a few ratchets. Then I try to grab two of every size open end wrenches and several extensions. Then I grab some Allen sockets and my big 1/2 breaker bar and socket to turn the engine over. Lots of lights, a fan in the summer, creeper, paper towels and a drain pan, and a few extra tools like side cutters, wire ties, box of cotter pins, a can of brake clean and WD40, and when I got all that stuff gathered up and ready to go I head up to the house to take a NAP.
Yep.
I use squares from Carpet remnants from jobs that I lay on and also put the tools on so I can slide the whole piece in and out from under the car when I'm done with all the tools and mess on top of it.
Sometimes after hrs of it.. I just pile the tools onto the bench for the next day to clean and put away.. if I'm not on another honey do already..
