Glad things are looking better for you regarding the property and squatter issues. If ya still need someone to "go have a chat with them" you just let me know and I'll see what I can do. LOL

Yeah, the last 2 weeks were really touchy around our place. Both of us are elated at the results of course...Kathie is still kind of milking the ordeal though. Made me go out to my parents place along Saturday for Grannies "summer" birthday party. I decided to be nice and not persist the issue. Shes in good spirits and only has minimal discomfort where they put the needle through on Friday. Actually she is making out pretty good...Im still doing the laundry, loading-unloading the dishwasher...scrubbing pots/pans in the sink...cooking...vaccuming...taking the dogs out to the pen to go "poopie" etc. Just hope she remembers how to do chores later on. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Glad to hear your mom is doing good. Just takes the right sized foot from the right person to kick the backend with just the right amount of force to get people going sometimes.

We are overdue for a visit. And even if its me solo....its gonna have to be soon. Besides I have two engines to assemble one of these days. Thinking I may assemble the one in the shed....crank is already ground to .020 mains and .010 rods. No polishing required....block is already honed and oiled (I's got bored one afternoon)...5K miles on the .040 bore from previous owner. Just need to order rings and bearings. Then we can ponder the new acquisition! I like the idea of the fresh unmilled block. Or I can order a complete master kit, use the crank and rods from the other engine and slap it back together.....so many options.
