Got a call yesterday saying the transmission for the Dodge was done, so it's been paid for & will be delivered back to the machine shop (where the engine is still being rebuilt) for storage until it's done. WJC (buddy/coworker) has agreed to pick up the engine/trans when it's complete & deliver it up here - I was going to offer the guy who dropped off my engine originally, $100 to bring it up, but I'd rather see someone I know have it, and it'll still be cheaper than renting a truck or trailer & hauling it myself. I'll still have to go down to pay for it, I think (maybe not?). I need to clear out the garage soon so I can try to get the current trans out of the car. WJC is going to help me put the new engine/trans combo in, so I need to be ready for that. Shit, that reminds me, I need to buy an engine hoist/crane soon!
I went up to help GRJ with a project on Sunday. Lots of bending, using a circular saw, jig saw, drill, etc, and the back of my legs/hip were really sore for a couple days. Turned out well, but I was already physically beat from strongman training the day before, so it was pretty rough.
Btw, I looked into that contest; 1) it's end of September, not October, 2) of the four events, two are completely out of reach for me (too heavy) so there's really no point in doing it. Oh well, I guess that gives me more time to prep for the one I originally planned to do this spring.
Ok, gotta go. Wish I felt more like I was able to write about the loneliness I've been feeling, but I feel like 1) I'm just repeating myself, so why bother? and 2) if I dwell on it, it'll just make things worse.
Oh, another btw... Wayne Dyer passed away this week. His books were the first thing I found after my divorce that actually helped me change my attitude for the better. One more thing to be sad about.
