So that ticket I got on labor day with my friends Rabbit came back to haunt me. I got an arraignment hearing today for reckless driving which is way worse than the speeding for conditions ticket I got the first time. So I hauled my rear end out of bed at 5 am today again to go back to the same stupid courthouse I went to in October for the original summons. I planned to plead guilty which meant a 600-something fine and lose my license for 60 days. It sucked but I didnt want to bring it to trial. I own a landscaping business and have to drive all day everyday so it was going to be bad news. Then when I went in front of the judge she couldnt find any paperwork for the reckless charge and just the speeding. I got a $250 ticket and a suspended fine of like $180 with a year of good behavior. I told her this was my first ticket and I had been there in October also so that plus me being nice and having movie star good looks saved me one more time.

Like an idiot with huge dreams I bought an A4 with a sludged 1.8t and blown turbo. All I used was oil, seafoam and MMO and I was able to clear out all the sludge so it ran like a new engine after 3 quick oil changes. Then the rest of the car sucked me dry with shittiness but man that concoction cleaned out the engine and that was the one part that didnt suck about that giant piece of poo poo car.

So I sprained my finger messing around with doing the timing on my friends truck last night. My hands slipped off the distributor and my middle finger went directly into the engine fan. No external damage but I cant bend it. Im just glad its still attached

I had a bad followed by a good day today. My little tractor that I use to put mulch in started leaking hydraulic fluid like a bastard today, again. My gf and I had to call it a day today before the fluid level got too low and destroyed the super expensive pump. I have the weekend and next week of putting mulch in and with no tractor I have to do it all with a wheelbarrow. All together about 30 yards of mulch. Turns out I didnt tighten the main supply line to the controls when I replaced a smaller line earlier this year. Crisis averted, thank god. I thought another hydraulic line let go and its a MAJOR bitch to replace them.

I had to watch my mother take her last breath after watching her die from cancer for two years. Worst day of my life but I was glad she got to die at home surrounded by her family and friends. Its going to be really hard for a while and you will feel angry for a long time but it will get better later on.
