Wish AA sold parts for my beater Impala. The front end sounds like it's about to fall off.

Take it as soon as you can, - plan for early, I love it! Use to work for a boss during the day AND come home to one

Well, it wasn't THAT bad, there were moments lol.

Done my time, that's for sure. It's a blast goofing around with the kids and now,- grand child. Nephews as well. Didn't get this kind of time with the little ones while working.

Great! Yea, I should of went to 55, but I'll make it. I'm unable to draw a pension until then. That's alright, 7 years to go. Just have to budget well until then, but the trade off is worth it IMO.

I have to say, most everyone I know older than I won't quick working. Some say they'll die if they do lol. I think most or all just enjoy it to some point or even use it as a release of sorts. Others got hit very hard thru a bad divorce or bad investments. The crash had it's victims. I had to start all over again. Sucked, Id be sittin prettier if that wasn't the case. Lots! -Feel fortunate that I had enough time to do so tho, and at that time, new exactly what I needed to do in order to accomplish at least something. But yeah, one good hit can be life changing. That's for sure. I went thru one bad D. It was like be paired with a super absorbent sponge, then and for sometime after.

I'm headed to the cemetary to collect a couple hundred names. I'm going to sign that DST repeal petition 201 times.

There has been a study that shows it actually uses slightly more energy. So why do we have it?

I love DST. I hate leaving work at 5 and it's dark when I get home at 5:30. It feels like the only thing to do is be in bed at 6PM.





Edit: Now I understand why you like standard time Jim
