Jeep, guards, and parts.

I know , I know it has been a lil bit...ok few months.


Classes over and passed them all.

I have a Jeep Wrangler now. I paid only 1K for it.!!! I have been putting parts on it..tune up...painting parts..fixing dent in R rear. I have to figure out what is wrong with the new Fog lights, and why they will not light up!

I have Guards very soon. So I can probably get some help with wiring issues.

My Nephew has moved in with me so he can get a better education. I believe in him and I know I am not wasting time and money on him.


I will go get a pic of the Jeep...or more.

Central air and Heatpump

They are being installed today, right now as I type most of the large components are installed it is the little fiddly bits that are giving the installers fits. They just spent  30 minutes trying to run the wiring for the thermostat. It will be completely installed tomorrow. Then Bring on the summer heat we will be sitting pretty in our Central A/C home.

Now when you come to visit lil sis you will be in comfort.

THEM!!!

THEM Those sassafrassing Carpenter ants started coming into my home. Well you just don't do that unless you are invited. Old FZY1 fights back dirty. Chemicals baby Mans big difference maker. They may out weigh us in mass. But we use everything we can to kill the lil bastards. Currently in use; Diazon for the yard. Terro for the food searching ants (Contains Borac acid). Ortho home defense spray.  I sealed the hole they were using to get in with Great Stuff foaming sealer. Don't mess with the FZY1.


Easter was good did a few family things. Like Fishing!

Thinking about attacking the deck and replacing a lot of the wood.

I got bad news from my sister she cannot get off for Memorial day. She asked me what would be a better day for her to come visit. Dear sweet lil sister any day you choose will be great. School lets out around June 10th here. Just come visit please?

Chainsaw Carving 2

I spent most of today carving up a poor innocent log into an Eagle. This is it above. It is the first one that stayed together. I had some help from my friend Dino Silva. That is him working on the head in the picture.

Originally I was going to put the feet at the bottom of the log. That was changed part way thru..It just did not look right. I messed up the chain on the saw, Kinked it or twisted it. Luckily for me Dino had a spare chain.

Now it look canted because the barrel it is sitting on is canted.I think I did pretty good, what do you think?

Gone Fishing

I have been Fishing everyday since the opening day of Trout Season here in Pa. I have not caught a single Fish! I had a beautiful Palomino trout not three feet away from me and could not catch him. My buddy's kid was right beside me and he almost caught it. He had it hooked but did not land him.
 So I am going out in the rain today to keep trying.
If anyone has a surefire trout lure they think I should try please comment here, email me, or just send me one! Thanks and keep on Smiling!

Door kicking ain't easy

I was there I learned much. However I was not good enough to continue at this time. I will go back and try again, if the PAARNG lets me.

Speaking of classes I am enrolled in a Solar Photovotaic Electric Systems class. what is that you say? That is to learn how to install Solar Panels. I will be taking a test that will get me certified. I hope to get a job doing Solar Panels. I like the renewable energy side of that and it is not in a factory. It may be high up on a house. I am not thrilled with that idea but I can do it.

To my facebook followers you know that I recently got new Mattresses for my bed and the spare bedroom too. That means Dear sis you have to stay at my place now. Plus I put a new looking handle on that door. Installed a brand new bathroom door just for you. We are getting sheets,blankets, and pillows for the bed. I may put a hardwood floor down too. depends on what kind of deal I get on flooring.

Now for the big news that is everywhere on the 'Net. Japan , earthquake, Tsunami and nuclear chaos. There is a few friends of ours there. Kasa, and Adam. Last I heard they are both safe, as of this writing/typing. I hope they get the Nuclear side of things taken care of fast. It is a disaster that I hope the US can handle half as well when it happens to us.

Hello to my Wife who is going to get around to seeing this soon.

Hello to TeraS, Kbug, and CatieJo too.

Not AGAIN!


Somnuabiotch!
I just got my Laptop back from the repair depot 2 weeks ago. what do I do? I dropped the darn thing. Which of course Broke the screen. I was talking to a friend who pointed me to a video on you tube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cR7xbR882IM I called Toshiba to see if it was covered. As I talked to them I went searching for a replacement screen for my Laptop. They told me it was Not covered  for dropping. But if I sent them 400+ dollars, they would replace the screen. The GD Screen was only 55 unless I bought 2 then it was only 45! Needless to say I told them no thank you I can do it...I hoped. the screen came wed. I had it installed in 20 min. I was very happy.

 Now I was trying to log into my Hotmail account. It seems it was Hacked again! So now I must wait for the staff at MSN get around to fixing it and I do Another password change. this is really getting old HACKERS    

Now for the next bit of fun. I get to play doorkicker for the army after two more weeks of school. So I will not be online during the days.

love you all be safe

Fzy and Jeeping dreams

So a good friend/soldier is selling me a nice Jeep Wrangler.

 It has a a few mech issues which I can tackle. However I was thinking why not upgrade it? I know, I know thinking will get me in trouble. I want to put a Turbocharger on it. I mean the kids do it to all the little sports cars. Why not a Jeep Wrangler?

Then there is upgrading the rear axle to a Ford 8.8 with disc brakes. then a SOA (spring over axle) lift.

However it all costs money. I am unemployed at this moment in time. So if anyone knows a star or has money. It may only be a dream.

Chainsaws Carving and searching

Well my first attempt at chainsaw carving was going well. then the chainsaw stopped working. I took it and the snow blower into the shop. The Snow blower was fixed easily.

The Chainsaw was unable to be repaired the cylinder and the piston were so scratched that they will not hold compression. So I had to get a new one. Why not repair the old one you say?  It would cost as much as a new one.  Now I am the owner of a Poulan pro,18 in, 35cc. chainsaw.

I return to my eagle and begin to work on it. I have the wings , head and tail feathers done. I am working on the body when my cell rings. I answer it. it is the better half asking how long I shall be. I am not sure. I hang up, start the chainsaw to begin working on the body. I  have not touched it when the wing on the other side  falls off!

Needless to say I was a tad upset. all that work gone. so now I am going to try again when the weather is a lil better.

 I really want a job. I do not like doing nothing. so I guess I will head to PACAREERLINK and see about a new job applying again.

@2010

the year started slow and down with the Knowledge that my factory was closing/moving to Tennessee. It was not with the employees consent. even though we are part owners in the Corp. we had no say. I had a brush with the Law that is unsettled at this time. I did serious damage to my marriage, that is slowly being repaired. Fall my job ended. November I saw my sister for the 3rd time in my life. That is the high point of the year. this new year I start out fighting a cold. Looking for a new BETTER JOB.

  To the people of Jackson Tenn. Be very watchful of ETS they will treat you like a number, not as an asset that you should be. I gave them my loyalty and they gave me nothing but a FYVM.
