I THOUGHT I was getting a Craftsman 300pc. tool set, BUT i guess my shocks were in place of that. I'd rather have a smooth(er) ride and use my dad's tools. Same garage so its not a big deal!

Today was pretty much as planned.

We slept in late. Ate a great big lunch, opened gifts, then put the girls down for a nap. My wife and I cuddled up on the couched and watched some tv. The baby my wife sits family wanted to go out, so they brought the baby over. We went to see my grandmother in the nursing home and the baby turned out to be a real joy for my grandmother. She like baby's that will sit still in her lap, and at 6 months old, the baby is pretty still.

We came home and pigged out some more.

All in all an excellent day. Everyone got me chocolate for gifts, except my 6 year old nephew which got me the tiniest vice grips I have ever seen (under 3 inches long, mouth only about 1/4 inch wide). The vice grips will be a much needed addition to the tool box.


Only down side to the entire day. I took some turkey out to my 12 year old dog. The neighbors 130 lb lab came over to steal the food. My wife stepped out and yelled at the neighbors dog only to be chased into her truck. He then chased my sister and her 3 kids into the house. I couldn't find any pellets for the rifle to scare him away, decided to grab my pistol and put an end to the dog. By the time I got out, the dog had run back home and into the house. I went over and talked to my neighbor. He got really upset, his dog has never done anything like it before. He told me flat out next time to do whatever it took to ensure the safety of my family, and that he would do his best to keep the dog inside.

So 20 minutes of bad, still makes for an excellent day in my book. How about everyone else?

he used to have my ecsb before he put a couple of scratches on it so i took it back and parked it, he actually isnt into the racing seen ( which i am glad ins. is high enough ) plus him being 16 doesnt need anything really fast or radical. he'll have the rcsb in due time ( maybe )

the deal was for him to keep his grades up, from the start of last year,hes only made one B since the beginning of last year,anyway he settled for a G6 but it was his choice. gotta say its a very clean and nice car for an 06 GTP
