I feel weird. Not depressed or anything, just kind of discontent. Like I should sell all cars and get a practical wagon or hatch or even another Cherokee.

My mum isn't doing very well again and I could use some ~positive energy~ It's awful to watch your mother struggle to breathe and be swollen as all hell because the cancer is causing her heart to fail

I'm guessing that it's turning into COPD and she's on water pills? If she hasn't taken any recently, it may be a good time to consider even OTC pills to help reduce the stress on her heart. Be strong for her, because she needs strength right now.

So the cancer metastasized to her heart and the pleura of her heart and lungs. She's been in the hospital for the past two weeks and after having a surgery that allows the pleura to drain so they stop squeezing her heart for some reason her heart is still not pumping the way it needs to be and as such it can't pump off all the water The first time I saw her afterwards I broke down because she is completely unrecognizable and she was on a ventilator for a small while and she can barely speak between her throats being hosed up and her being barely able to breathe I'm preparing to lose her mentally because at this point I don't know if she's going to make it to thanksgiving I mean it sure beats the six months they have her in January but it's just weird because she was relatively fine until about a month ago

I'm so sorry. I'm guessing she's on massive doses of warfarin, then? I'm guessing she's on some massive steroids, or on none? Dealing with cancer loving sucks, and with your parent- I can't even imagine. Try to enjoy as much of the time you have. I built up a little tablet for my granny who is stage 4 so she can chat with her great grands (and watch Netflix). This may not be quite as easy for your Ma. Godspeed. This makes no sense.. I accidentally clicked "Save", and it's not showing the rest of my post. Hoping another edit causes it to get dropped from cache.

Busy Haulin Ice Visit 5,6 I'm waiting for the battery fire too. I'm losing track of where I am in this. so some of it may be slightly out of sequence, but it all actually happened. IIg texts me and says he hears clunks when he shifts, brings the bike over. I look closely and the bolts have shifted that hold the derailleur/ntermediate gear to back axle. The final drive chain (no tensioning device, has 2" of play). get out socket, awkwardly loosen axle, pull it into place, tighten it. While I have it on the blocks I notice that the wheels are both bent! Examining the spokes finds 15-20 very lose, and one broken on each wheel. I tighten the spokes, find a shop to do this, I don't have time to learn. Meanwhile I had taken the freezer off and secured it to two pieces of Trex, like a skid. I screwed the skid into the Trex deck of the pedicab. When I wrap up securing the freezer, I notice some more uhm, "issues". I thought my glasses were playing with my eyes, but heh no. The pedicab lower deck holds up the pedicab upper deck with 4 standoffs, with a 3/8" bolt in shear connection from the upper deck standoffs. This sounds reasonably sturdy, when I word it like that. But if you execute it like this, man it's just asking for it. uh oh  uh oh oh  more oh  oh  Guess where the shoulder ends!! Oh wait, you can almost see it in some of the pictures. The thread ends inside the lower bracket, so plenty of things digging into the threads and not enough washers to spread it out (while also being far far too many for the serious business we are asking of it!), meanwhile nut is stressing the upper standoffs in a pincher movement. I go to hardware store, get more washers, longer shoulder bolts. we don't have time to put them in yet though. Known things that have to be done, right now - drain for waste tank (he is siphoning it out now, bleh) fill nozzle and hosing (he is filling it with a garden hose shoved up under the sink and into the top of the tank) replace bolts suspending deck with proper bolts, and more washer, prayers to FSM replace battery connects replace soft vinyl hose with nylon reinforce or plex IIG wants to figure out the hard stuff on this version, and get it right on the next one. Right now maintenance spending is ~$1 a mile. He wants to expand, and he wants to cover more territory, like two events in a day or further than 6 miles away. option A: buy a $600 new trailer, I can fabricate whatever it needs to accommodate the trike, register it, insure it, get a hitch on his antique volvo wagon option B: Purchase 3 250 Watt solar panels, a charge controller and maybe a bigger battery, build a solar canopy, and he can drive wherever he wants. (358 watt motor, 322 watt freezer, we shold be able to make this thing off the grid with only about 250 pounds more weight! LOL) option C: welcome to suggestions

Anyone that knows me resonably well knows I detest Halloween and I'll have no bar of this purile garbage. Just do not knock on my door and just go away..... so I could not have possibly done this better if it was deliberate. Home early, began to work on Forester. Crowbar in hand, trying to straighten the front bumper when I slip and cut my palm on said crowbar. So here I am muttering nasty words as blood drips on the crowbar and over my fingers, extracte myself from under the car, continue to mutter and curse as I cross over to the tap to stop the blood flow and to clean up..... "TRICK OR TREAT!!!" I look up and there is two young children and an adult..... said adult beginning to look in horror as a dirty man with a blood dripping off it crowbar gives them all a WTF? stare. And the kids also notice the dripping crowbar...... I just simply go to the tap and begin to wash my bloodied hand and crow bar as they beat a hasty retreat. OH GOD YIISSSSSSSSSSSS I COULD NOT HAVE PLANNED THAT ANY BETTER!!!!!!!!!!

Cancer sucks. My mom got hit once and my dad was hit twice. Sorry, TT.  So far today I realized I forgot to shave as I was going out the door. Only had time to get rid of the pedo-stache because I wanted to get coffee. Get to the coffee joint, realize I don't have my wallet. Don't have my $10 emergency money in the mustang because my brother is a POS that I had to bail out of a tow charge and DMV fee to the tune of $375 and he had the nerve to ask me for gas money and that was the only thing I had. That was over a month ago and he still hasn't paid me anything back. Not sure what the point of this post was.

November is a popular birthday month for us. Me, my wife, my dad, my father-in-law, my grandpa (passed away but same day as me), my aunt, a couple cousins, 3 coworkers, and several friends. I counted 9 months back and realized we're all probably valentines babbys
