  5. ~~~~~ Wow. I've been watching movies and cameos by him my entire life. God's Speed my good man.
  6. Back in and checking another source for potential auto repair.
  7. About to make a HomeHouse visit.
  8. Dang, I needed that laugh. I'm getting screwed over at every turn I'm trying to make to get my truck fixed. Got mechanics that don't do auto work. Got auto build money and can't give it away to these guys. I'm in such a catch 22 situation that the high point of my week was making sure I was there to hold my furbaby as she passed away.

  11. About to veg for a bit. I did some yardwork and managed to be inside before one of my Tuxedo Girls passed away. Piano Keys was buried around 6pm along side Trene's furbaby, Chibi. Everything feels surreal at the moment so I'm about to lay here and meditate.
  12. Just finished handling a crazy eventful morning and now about to head out to pick up yard work from where I left off before the rain started yesterday.

  14. Had fun playing with my neighbor's gas powered yard tools this morning. I've never used a gas powered backpack blower before...so much fun. Now I'm about to start looking for auto restorers since Toyota said they don't want to touch my vehicle. I really don't get it if a person is willing to pay for the work to be done, but whatever they need to do so they don't lose their "Toyota Verification".
  15. Done with orders and finances for now and about to turn in for a while before I tackle equipment maintenance.
  16. Product orders and finances time...because I fell asleep earlier...😅

  19. ~~~~~ Correcting the fact that Monday will be May 20th. I'm crazy right now...which is just a bit calmer than my normal.
  20. Due to the power going out at the dealership, they were not able to get to my vehicle yesterday, so I just called to end the time on the KIA LXS that I had to rent on Monday. Just in case, I now have it rented out until Monday the 19th. I miss my TRUCK!!!

  23. Been on auto insurance quotes for the past 7 hours trying to assist my niece in finding affordable coverage. This sucks for young people in Michigan. Then it's compounded by living in the city of Detroit.
  24. ~~~~~ What angers me the most about the entire incident is that it shouldn't have even been a thing. I take my vehicle in for service every year and they are supposed to do specific point inspections for each maintenance check. My brake line was completely rusted through and finally gave up the goat. When I mentioned that at the service center and also how they said I was supposed to have an undercarriage zinc wash, the first thing the rep said was, "Well, you know how the weather is here and how the rain water and salt can corrode the underside of vehicles." Yeah, I almost lost it. That was the reason for me having the anti-corrosion wash done! Literally, all 3 brake lines were 100% corroded on the external with the one eaten completely through. I told them that thanks to this, when I get my vehicle back, I'm going to be under there with my inspection mirror because now I don't trust anything. She then goes on to tell me that I hadn't been there since September of 2022. But a service should last longer than one month and my vehicle started slowly losing break fluid less than 6 months later with being driven half the usual time and distance due to a change in Trene's doctors being closer to the Detroit city limit. I have always worked on my vehicles myself. Growing up, my father was an off and on mechanic and my brother was a military mechanic, so working on vehicles is practically in my blood. The only thing I don't do is undercarriage stuff because I do not have the equipment for it, but I have a shade-tree mechanic neighbor who is willing to help me out with that. My dealership warranty was up in 2019, so I have no issues with handling things myself going forward. ~~~~~ My sister's situation was caused by an accident and the last thing I need is for her to lose faith in my abilities due to someone else's inability to properly do their job because auto places generally have an unspoken rule that they can get more work and money of off female drivers because we don't understand our vehicles and need their assistance.
