Screw that. Ain't a chance I'd be sleeping in my camper on a cold night like that. If my wife couldn't trust me and have a civilized conversation about it. . . . I'd be on the couch or something. Not the camper. lol

Hope she wakes up with an open mind and ready to converse Dave. Zero communication doesn't fix anything. Smartass comments likely won't help you either though if I had to guess. lol

Dang Giles..................that's one for the books! How long have you had the couch? Did you buy it new or used?? Hoping for the best brother. When the lady of the hose is mad its a tuff situation. I say pawn it and take her out TOO dinner.

[emoji35] Something has to give, the hits just keep coming... I'm so pissed I don't feel like explaining. I'm getting close to flipping...a man can only take so much. Wish me luck folks, I need to find a little more strength to help me through these holidays.

Another union built Delphi Alternator bites the dust at only 103k miles.

After I jumped the Caddy I managed to get it into a parking spot before it died again. I left it there and drove the truck to work. Heading home tonight about 5 miles from the house.

The really ironic thing is we dropped the wife's vehicle off last night at the dealership for recall work and I was on my way to pick up the keys.

Changed the flat, SIL drove me to the dealership to pick up the wife's car, went over and jumped the caddy and let it charge off the truck for a bit, drove the caddy home, had the wife take me back to get the truck.


It's been a long fucking day boys

I feel your pain, Joe. I've got around $5,200 in my truck this month now... My trans parts should be here tomorrow. Just got home from work and don't even have the motivation to go put together my new bow. I figure if I gotta sell it, it's still NIB.

Fugg it...here it comes fellas, my last 30 days.

Decided to keep my truck and fix it back up to 100%. $5,200 later and going on the 4th week in the shop...I've drove it a total of about 3 days. Every time I get it back, something else fails.

Wife hit a deer last night and thought it didn't do any damage. I got to looking at it today and it poked a small hole in the radiator. Almost $500 for that piece of shit! I was able to get enough sealant on it so it's no longer leaking. Hopefully it'll hold for our trip to Toledo tomorrow and long enough that I can find a cheaper one.

About ten days ago our 12 year old niece tried to take her own life.

Been dealing with family drama over how my mom was treated compared to other family members when she had cancer.

Trashed my shoulder around the time of the TOO event at Strouds... Struggle to make it through work every day, can't hardly sleep. Fucking thing hurts. Dealing with the VA medical system sucks! My appointment isn't until next Thursday...and that can't come fast enough. Eating pain pills and using those numbing patches ain't for me.

Injured another deer a couple of weeks back.

Wife had surgery on her woman parts.

Junked a crossbow.

All this is just what's at the front of my mind right now. Life has been fucking the shit outa me and I'm all out of shit! I'm ready to punch a baby in the face I'm so wound up right now. Burn some puppies or something... I'm thankful for all the good things I do have going for me, but mother fuck... It's hard to see them sometimes. I'm ready for some me time...and I'm trying really hard to not find it in alcohol. I've got some other conditions that are also fighting me that I'm not going to openly share. Sorting through all this shit is a bit hard for me. Staying positive is also something I have to try a bit harder to do then most people.

In the end, it'll all work out and I know that. It could always be worse and I know I'm doing better then a lot of others.

At any rate, thanks for reading...I don't need any replies, just venting. Something new I've been trying the last year. (Still not sure if it helps me or make it worse)

They also thought my skin cancer was back. Glad it isn't.

I'd also like to give a thanks out to those who have text me. It helps, thank you. As you guys are my current support. I don't often share info to family, I don't like to make them worry.
