It just keeps raining and raining and raining here. Sometimes I feel like I'm in Seattle.

Maybe next week I can go back and work on my car since it's outside. I have it triple covered so it doesn't get wet.

I'm waiting for the weekend and next week. We're supposed to have some sunny days in the upper 50's here in eastern VA. Perfect for doing outside repairs. I love it when it's mid 60's to around 70 degrees!! All we have now is a nasty 'nor-easter.

Hit almost 60 degrees yesterday. I had plans for the Challenger and Barracuda, BUT I spent all day Sat. on my back replacing the fuel pump in the Ford Exploder. Got it done and turned my attention to my wife's 2001 Ford Windstar. Just checked the air in the tires, oil ect for an upcoming road trip. I started it up and drove to the local Walgreens. It died in the parking lot & guess what it was??? The fuel pump Arrrrgh :swear: :pullinghair: :stomp:. I hate Fords!! Third tow this week!! I got in the Challenger today and got to vent some of that frustration in a little rubber burning...actually got a little sideways!! Woo-hoo!! :woo: :burnout: I still got to do a fuel pump!! Daylight savings starts next weekend!! :bigsmile:
