For crying out loud, it's nearly October 2018! Seems like 2 years ago was the year 2000 ... time is just flying.

Going way to fast for me. The older I get the faster time goes by.

I've finally gotten stable in employment too. Took a couple of years and a couple of joker companies that lied to me before I was hired. Started up with a newer agency where I can make an impact and not do entry-level tasks anymore.

Congrats on your job. As for me, well sometimes I want to make a change. I could leave and make more money, have a lot better benifits, but its hard to leave when the owner of the company is someone you went to highschool with. No we wernt big buds in school, but we did know each other. And we are small company with about 12 people working here. Yesterday the owner, BBQed dear sausage poboys for lunch. Yea I get stuck doing some jobs I am not fond of some times. But all in all Its a good job. There is a lot of virity thats for sure. Worked on a striped out crank shaft on a lawn mower this morning. Welded some monel earler, welded a stainless steel handle back on a stainless pot for a restrant, and have a timming gear to pull off of a 6 foot crank shaft and install on a new crank for a diesel. For this I will be using a 350 ton horizontal press. And then who knows what else will come in the door. Oh and we can do personal projects here as long as it is on our own time.

I got my first seniors discount. It was for my lift pass at local ski resort. Being old and feeble I will be upgrading to snowboard boots with BOA system.

Just be glad you have grandchildren. I never will. Its a blessing and a curse at the same time.

Just turned 71 last month. Been enjoying retirement for 11 years now--lovin' it! I have discovered that trying to keep up with 4 vehicles at my age is a bit too much for me--both time & money wise. The '87 SR5 will be goin' down the road soon, as I just like the '83 too much to sell it at the moment.
