I really love the new place. I love the big deck in front. My biggest problem is in moving itself. It's a pain. Thankfully the guy left the appliances and couches that are all like new, so I caught a break there. But I still have to move my Kamado grill which weighs a ton, and my big Weber that also weighs a ton. And I have to go up stairs to put them on the deck. I'm not looking forward to that.

The woman next door really doesn't bother me. She rarely comes out of her house, and when she does all she does is yell at herself or her car.

And my wife bought new patio furniture. And guess what? It all has to be assembled. Take a wild stab in the dark as to who got that job? But it will be worth it when I'm done.

Today I had planned on checking out a 1973 International pickup. But my wife took the Jeep to work and I was at my house in Wofford Heights. I hadn't been there in over 2 months and all my cars batteries were beyond dead. I hooked up my charger but I wasn't going anywhere anytime soon. I didn't plan on being gone so long. Hopefully the old corn binder will still be there tomorrow, but if not it'll just be another one that got away.

The woman next door? If not, may I suggest? Like I said, free entertainment. Unless you want to pay her. "Stupid screw! All the others lined up just right! But No, not you! You just had to be difficult! If you had a butt I'd spank you!! Just get in that hole you stupid SOB!!"

I had a neighbor behind me for a while who was odd. Unlike your new neighbor woman, I never heard her speak. She was about my age and still lived at home. I only saw her when she skittered out the lane to the mailbox and back to the house. I do mean skittered, as if her life depended on making it out and back without seeing anyone. And more importantly, I'd guess, NO ONE SEEING HER! If I came out during one of her mailbox journeys she'd double up the pace. The color of her eyes was "straight ahead".

Good luck on the Binder. Those are handsome trucks in those years. I always wanted to own one, a 3/4t 4wd. I also like the earlier ones.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

So far 3 hours Chasing down a parasitic draw on my 05 Accord . It was the aftermarket start alarm unit. After cutting taping and checking I just ripped the whole damn piece of crap out. Heat shrinked all the areas they cut and spliced . Hooked it all back up draw went from .15 to .01 so now I shouldnt have to disconnect the battery anymore if it's going to sit more than 3 days .
