Stop in for a cup of coffee

Hey Dave - definitely like to hear how it's going - I think the coffee shop is already mostly empty come 1pm (that's what time I see your first post today at) - seems to me no one in here gets scared away to easily by anything.. :D - everyone has something going on and it can be hard to respond to every post. Keep 'em coming!
Thanks Karl. I know sometimes my posts empty out the coffee shop but just typing makes dealing with these strange days a lot easier.

Drove to GA to see my Dad yesterday. Had a brand new fleet Impala, people thought I was a cop and got out of my way! I liked it.

Dad looked at the whole album I made, he'd never cried around me before. He was happy and sad at the same time. I respect all you Dads out there who can handle your children when they are upset; I got him laughing so that was good. When your Dad was always Superman to you, it's a different feeling to tuck him into bed with his teddy bear.

I'll tell you what, my Dad is right how nice the people are in his small town, the ladies who work there treat him very kindly.

We're all here for you if you need to talk. Many of us have or are going through the same thing. It's comforting to know you are not the only one. tmm
 
Night shift checking in! :D

I logged in tonight after a loooong day of packing boxes and everything here looked different. Hmmmm...and I haven't even had a beer yet.

Then I looked over at my user name and I see "Gold Member" over my Avatar. How did that happen??

If it was a gift from someone, send me a PM and let me know 'cause I'm confoozled...and I'd like to say thanks! :)

Oh yeah, and I found my old Craftsman engine analyzer (in it's original box) plus all of my ball joint, pitman/idler arm and tie-rod forks. They should make rebuilding the front end of the GTS a whole easier now. I forgot I even still had them.

Moving sucks but setting up the new garage will be the reward! I haven't even had a garage for the past 6 years and all my old tools and stuff have been quietly resting in boxes in the basement.

Take a break, grab a beer and chat it up. How long have you been at your place that your moving from?

Congrats on the Gold Membership.....

Just dont forget where you put your front end tools when you move. That would be my luck.

Moving does suck! Just know that I'm enjoying a delicious beverage in your honor. I hope it makes you feell a little better!
 
Sorry for the delay in reply. Had to run down to the basement and check on the defrosting freezer. Fingers are frozen now. LOL!

Just opened a beer...Ahhh! that's better. Gotta catch up with you Ben.

We've been in this place for 5-1/2 years SLS. It's just a townhouse since when we moved back here from Memphis, I couldn't sell that house so I couldn't afford to get what I wanted here. I carried that place empty for 5-1/2 years before a good friend from down there called me up in June and asked if he could rent the place.

He's in there now and thinking about buying it in another year so it was time for me to buy what we wanted here. I'll put the townhouse up for sale after we get moved. If it doesn't sell in a couple of months, I'll rent it out. Market is hot here for rentals and it would be a good investment property for a while
 
Here, just forgot to refresh the page. LOL

It will be nice to have a place to call your own. Happy for ya! I could go for another beer, but I have to get to bed in 50 minutes and Im not much of a drink a beer before bed type of person.
 
Where did everybody go?

It's lonely in here. LOL!

oh wow, I just noticed your a Gold member now.

don't forget to PM Mr. Joey your address to get some cool FABO stickers for the car or where ever.

and welcome to the Scat pack coffee club

Thanks for the welcome. :)

I'm such a N00B here. IDK how the place works yet. Stickers from Joey? Whodat?

Maybe it will all make sense if I open another beer. My back is down to a dull throb and I'm starting to be able to focus on something other than boxes now.

Yeah, if I wasn't waiting on the silly freezer to finish thawing I'd be ready to call it a night too. Looks like it's gonna take another hour or two and I don't want to leave it on flash-defrost overnight. Time enough for at least one more beer...maybe two. :D

Joey is the owner/administrator of this site. If you send him a PM that your a Gold Member, he will send you some FABO stickers for your car, tool box or what not.
 
His user name is Joeychgo Ddaddy, They are very nice stickers, just send a privet message to him with your addydress
 
OK, cool! Thanks!

Freezer is 2/3 thawed now. Maybe I'll get to bed by 11 pm. Gotta meet the guy from the Security alarm company tomorrow morning early at the new place to either service the system to make it stop alarming...or kill it altogether.

I've never felt the need for a security system before and it's a safe neighborhood, but I figure if the place has one I should have it in good working order. If the cost is too high to do that, out it goes!

Oh yeah, and to put a face to the name, here I am in the new Dart Cave today.

I keep telling myself that I'm only old when I look in the mirror...LOL!

Well I am glad your Freezer is almost dun :cheers: it won't be long now, and I try not to look in the mirror unless I have to shave :glasses7: bumping 60 but still fighting the growing up thing :D
 
Freezer is finally done, headed to bed now. Tomorrow is the last haul before the Big Move on Friday.

See you guys on the flip side!
