well I started to wire my garage to day but got side tracked with family so I will pick it up later this week I put in 12 new outlets and ran the romex to gang them together in groups of three with gfi on each circut next week the breaker box SOOO what did you guys and gals do this week end?8)
 
Today was a swap meet. Yesterday was the busy one.

6 rims and tires. take all six off, take 2 smaller ones and move them onto the ralleys for the front of the Duster, re adjust exhaust, strighten it out instead of half cocked to the side.Then, clean shop.

Friday was install tranny pan.
 
Dropped my signed job offer in the fed ex box, cleaned house and did dishes, walked dogs, bought dog food, brought back the ball-joint press to Autozone for some money back, fixed the lock on my garage door. Oh yeah, watched the Broncos get creamed by Baltimore, that sucked.
 
Saturday: Got the engine and trans ready to install in my Duster.
I put motor mount on the freshly painted 340, New Dampener and lower pulley, Valve covers, etc. Chased the header bolt holes too and did a couple of hours sanding in the engine bay.
She is bagged now and ready to install when I paint the engine bay. I also painted my trans support and shifter bracket that bolts to the pan. When they dried I bolted them up also.
I also cleaned out my storage unit too and shoved it all in my shed to save on a bill.
That night I was the designated driver while my wife, son, daughter in law and 3 friends got totally hammered bar hopping. We got home at 1:30 and I started drinking. Everybody spent the night and we went to bed about 6:30 am.
A night to remember for sure! :-D

Sunday: Got up at 9:30 still tipsy had a shower and cleaned the house while the coffee was brewing. When we were done we made bacon and eggs for everybody. Only 2 got up. Oh well more for us. :cheers:
I sat around for about an hour drinking coffee with Tammy and talking about all the crazy crap everyone did, then went out to fix the shed I had crammed all that junk in the day before. We ended up spending about 2 hours cleaning and reorganizing it.

I cut up a bunch of metal for the pile, finished getting my trans ready for install, wrestled with the dogs for a while, took everybody home who left their cars elsewhere and took Tammy to Arby's.
When we got home I cleaned the garage until I got on here a little while ago and charged up the batteries in the boat in case I want to go fishing tomorrow.

Tammy was asleep on the couch already when I came up here.

I guess I should turn in soon too. It was an excellant weekend!! Good times with good friends and family and still got a crapload of stuff done. 8)

I sure am sleepy though. Lol.
