My truck is due for inspection this month, so I had to go out and buy 6 new tires --my wallet took a beating-- went to the garage today to see if it would pass, NOT!.... I have a broken lens cover on my fog light and also a broken shock in the front, so....... in order to pass inspection I need to get these fixed. Thank goodness for holiday pay! The truck is almost 8 years old with 125 thousand miles, I am hoping it will last me for a few more years being a diesel engine I should get at least another 100 thousand on it, at least I can always hope. I am getting much better traction in the snow with my new tires so that is good.
I am working the overnight shift at work , got about 3 hours of sleep this afternoon before coming in tonight at 10, by 7am i will be tired. Fred and Linda will most likely go out for breakfast, but i think i will stay home and try to sleep. We will see what morning brings. Drinking my Mt. Dew will help me stay awake anyways. Have a great day!

Well, Lindas first semester is over, she got A's and B's! She has done an excellent job in school. This new semester she will be taking guitar class and a sculpture class. I hope she will like them. There is another big storm coming tomorrow, supposedly another 10 - 15 inches of snow. There probably wont be any school if the storm starts early. I have to be at work at 8am so i am hoping the storm doesnt start until I get to work, then it can snow all it wants. Have a great day!!

WAHOO! YAHOO! YEEHAW! Lindas basketball team actually won their first game today against York. It was an excellent game! Very well matched teams. It actually went into overtime. Noble won 37 to 36-----BEST of ALL--- LINDA SCORED A BASKET!!!!!!!! First time she has scored! I was doing so much screaming my throat hurts!! Awesome game! and of course I didnt bring my camera cause i was thinking that there is only so many pictures i can take of her playing the same game all season. Oh well, you will just have to imagine it. Beautiful sunny windy day here.
