Well, its 12:05 on the 31st, so its technically the 31st, but it is still the 30th to me. Mom got her results back from the doctors and they finally figured out why she’s been feeling soooo shitty for the past year or so. Turns out that it wasn’t the surgery causing the problems, but an infection which she got somewhere along the way which never left he stomach heal properly. The good news is, this is treatable by medication. Thank good for modern science. Now if we could get doctors to use it a little bit more freely, we wouldn’t have people like Mom suffering for a year needlessly, or Shannon being dizzy for the last few years. Doctors need to read the symptoms better, and not put off the obvious. Thankfully Shannon too can be treated by medicine. Hope and pray that they both get better in a speedy way.

Wedding invitations are done, printed, and in our possession. Scary stuff. They look great. Now to figure out addresses and such so people get them promptly. Plans coming along. Still lots to do. Hopefully Shannon and I can get serious and get a bunch done in the next couple weeks. I’d like everything sorted out by end of June. Only 99 Days to go!!H#@K@HK#H@

Bug update: spent some money this week. Picked up 3 new fenders (now have 4 new ones in total), the fender seals, all the hardware to reinstall the new fenders, window seals for all the windows, and some tar board for the engine compartment. Coming along slowly. Some more welding to be done and then its almost time to ship it off to Lens in Jarvis to get the remainder of the body work completed, and have it squirted in a shiny new colour. As of right now, arrival blue is still the colour of choice. Still gonna look around more seriously when the time comes, but that seems to be the winner. And as said before, 99 days to go 😉  ..

Truck: running good. Wheels are awesome still. Better feel of the road, without being harsh. Really sticky off the line and in corners. Much better handling prowess and capabilities. Money well spent in my opinion. Still hoping to lower it a bit more to fill them wheel wells a bit more, bed rug, and some more painted, smoothing to be done. However body work on the truck is on hold until the bug is done. Possibly just do the drop and rug this summer and save up to repaint the whole truck with a nice clear coat when I do the front bumper. Possibly shave the door handles as well while I’m at it. Sounds like a plan to me

Got a new web server boxen up and running. Old machine was a POS. (Piece of shit), and was in dire need of replacing. So thanks to Foxxxy, I now have another dually in the family. Still only 2 machines in the house, but both have 2 processors. New box is a Bp6 with 2xCeleron 433. Nothing spectacular, but it’s a heck of alot faster then the old PII I had there. Seems to be a bit quicker for WWW and certainly faster internal file sharing.  Just got to get a happy kernel running.
