Almost got it all done last night. Family time today, but should be able to sneak out to the garage to wrap it up.

Then I will be spending some time to do a spring clean up on it and under it.

I don't know how you get anything done at the new house with the truck project.
As I was reading: spring clean up that is going to be house... Nope truck again..

How long before the wife turns you and the truck into a Viking Funeral ?

The Wife and kid go to bed early, so I accomplish most truck stuff at night.

Today will be painting the kids room and then a oil change and brake job on the wife’s car.

This is totally off the rails here... Hard to believe, right? 

So speaking of Viking funerals.  Has anyone ever seen the movie "What We Did On Our Holiday"?  Very much a family friendly movie but it's absolutely hilarious.

It's not some big blockbuster type of movie.  I think I found it browsing the depths of Vudu one night.  Having kids, you will appreciate the movie.

I tagged it on demand, so I can watch it while in Seattle this week.

Truck got some drive time and seems all good except for the IAT sensor. I think the oil vapours took it out, so a new one is one order.

Truck got a quick wash, before moving onto the car.

Car got new brakes, oil change, summer tires back on and a quick wash and interior clean-up.

The little guys room is painted, so when I get back we’ll start moving his stuff I and onto prepping the room for #2.

In the middle of trying to find the brake pads I already bought, I ended up re-arranging our little shed (5x12). So glad that’s done too.

I get back home late tonight (technically tomorrow morning) and the new sensor is waiting for me.

Gonna slam it in tomorrow and make sure I’m back 100%.

Back up 100%. Gotta drive it and get the exhaust pretty hot to burn out some oil in the exhaust.

Hopefully no more major set backs and I can hit the Dyno in mid May.

Haha yeah but for different reasons I'm sure.  She probably wants you to stop spending so much money on the truck.  I don't care about that.  I just want results and they get delayed when you break stuff.

Only thing I have going for me, is that we have no vehicle payments or debt outside of the Mortgage. It gives me more incremental spending money than before.
