We have set a new yearly total rainfall record....It's beyond wet here....
Left all my trailer stuff out and it got rained on....Windy now so maybe it'll dry off and I can store it away...Need to hit the tire store and get the tires balanced and rotated on the little red truck...The tires are fairly new but also fairly Chinese....First thing I find out before purchasing a tire is if they're Chinese....that's a Hell No from me but they got plenty of treads and we're riding on....Gonna redo the front brakes as I feel a slight shake and those 30 year old shock absorbers have given up the ghost....Gonna take a minute and a few bucks but in the end it will be worth it.....
Maybe 24 hours without a monsoon ???? Better than snow and ice I guess but still............

Time for some year-end PIFing [emoji3] A couple of contest wins, and Tony B tossed in a few extra items:
-Black Starss Icon pod kit, with two refillable pods - multiple reviews recently
-Blue Starss Icon pod kit, with two refillable pods FOUND A HOME [emoji3]
-Geekvape Baron RDA (en route from 3f, should be here in early Jan) - DJLSB reviewed it recently
-Black Coilart Azeroth squonk kit (with DPro RDA) - unlike some earlier reviews, the battery door on this one seems to be a good fit, though the edges of the aluminum case are a bit sharp; should be a durable backup squonker for someone comfortable with unregulated mods. FOUND A HOME [emoji3]
-Wismec Neutron RDA - can be converted from normal parallel dual coils to series dual coils
If anyone is interested in any of the above, send me a PM. Straight PIF (I may pack things in roasted kawvee [emoji3])

I'm sorry to hear of another ECF member passing away.
Since the sun was trying to shine yesterday, I decided to drag myself to the grocery store before the pre Christmas stampede of today and Sunday. About the time I got inside the store it started pouring rain again, along with some gusty winds. I'm VERY glad I decided to go, when I got home there was a big ole dead limb that had blown out of one of my trees...right smack in the middle of where I usually park in my driveway!! It was plenty big enough that it would have done major damage to my car! The wind came from WSW, not the usual wind pattern here.
Those are some sweet PIFs, Mark! I have no need for any, but I am definitely enjoying the kawvee

Wharf I'd share if I could....Trust I've had more than plenty....Still walking the planks to get past the water and mud......
12/23....Have I done my shopping????????? Gonna hit the Belk's and pick up 3 gift cards and then hit the grocery so I don't starve until Wednesday...Dang propane ran out last night and it was 63* in the crib this a.m. Not suitable......Raiders/Broncos tomorrow night.....Last game in the Black Hole...Not real happy about all that but I control nothing....I'll be tuned in....No rain forecast and I'm hoping by Wednesday I'll be ready to get that dang heater hooked up...I got plastic to lay down and stay out of the mud under the house....Been cleaning and observing the new little Toyota....So far it's solid and I've had more than one person offer to buy it....Funny how I beat the bushes for months and haul it across the state to receive offers at ++$5...Yeah how about NO!!!! Right now I need a window regulator for the drivers side....Spike likes the window up then down repeatedly...Taps the damn window with his paw....Gonna order a roll of window tint as the Taco tint has gone bad and the Dodge and Toyota never had any...I like some privacy and the Toyota offers NONE!!!....Also needing a muffler/tailpipe and some brake rotors up front....It's going down the road fine and has become the daily driver as intended....With proper care it should last another 30 years....All my sheet is vintage including me....
