Drinking and dinner at home, thinking about how close my 931 is to running compared to last year. Howabout you all?

Searching the interwebz, I can only assume my car will sound like this when completed:

Having a better evening than my day. Just doing some dinner prep and dreading heading back to work tomorrow since I have no clue what I’ll be doing (my replacement has already taken on my caseload), and I should go for a run at the gym, but getting there in the snow is a bit dodgy at the moment.

How’s the engine rebuild looking at the moment?

My day is definitely going better than my evening. I had more to do earlier. Exercise is definitely a great way to take your mind off things and stay in shape.

While waiting to source some hard to find replacement valves and gaskets, all I can do is clean up the parts I’ve already got.

Drinking a beer and playing Hot Wheels with my boy. It’s been a good day.

It hasn’t been terrible. Had a good dinner. I’m tired of having up and down days though. My divorce will be final in a month and five days and I am ready to get past it so I can start to move on with my life.

I didn’t end up paying nearly that much for mine, because sale.

Having consistent up and down days sucks but it’s life. Start living and moving with life now, not based on some schedule IMO.

Good point. I probably should. My main goal right now is saving up to move. The more I think about moving out of this Godforsaken state, the more it drives me to get things going.

Find your drive and do what needs to be done. We cannot run from our problems and pain, we can never do that. We live with the pain and do our best to ensure that ourselves and no one else will ever feel that pain if we can help it.

Man, I really appreciate that. You are so right. I know you went through some rough stuff, too, and I am glad to see you still kicking around on here. Thank you for the kind words. I do mean that.

Hey there! Our home thermostat died so I’ve spent all afternoon trying to install a new one. Still not working right, there’s a wiring difference between the old and new and the stupid furnace is in the goddamn attic, the entrance of which is just beyond reach with the ladder that I have.

Other than that, not too bad because there is now another actual animal in our fleet (Jag).

Truthfully, these are things I wish I could tell myself. The things I’ve gone through I don’t think compare to what you’re going through right now. But what matters is that you take care of yourself within all means, and learn and grow from all experiences you go through.

I wasn’t sure my words were coming off as kind, or even positive. I do appreciate the positive feedback. Be good to yourself and the people you care about.

Whether it be the same or not, the main thing is learning and making the most of what time we have left in this world. I understand how it is to not heed the advice you give others. It’s different when the one you are telling is yourself. If you ever need somebody to talk to, though, you have a friend in me.
