Yay vacations!

[TBoneTX 45,575]

Aye. Our full synthetic tends to cost a pretty penny and buying it ourselves cuts the cost in half or more. Doing it ourselves takes even that labour cost out.

In December, we found Castrol semisynthetic on closeout at AutoZone.com for $1/qt., whee man. We got ourselves Many (2x2x2x2x2+[2x2x2x2]) quarts, whee man. Also got oil filters at NAPA on one of their Many%-off discount days, whee man. We are proud of our fiscally prudent selves, si we man.

Hubs will only use Mobil 1. Dunno why but whatever. Jeep has 97k miles. Needs a new Cat and tires. Otherwise it runs great (knock on wood.)

Newer-vehicle specs insist on "Dexos-1" certification for motor oils, what a racket man.

Nothing wrong with dino oil, no man.

There's a whole list of Dexos-approved motor oils, need to find it again man.

No need to overspend on Mobil 1 unless get a good deal, no and si man.

My husband reminds me of such. To be grateful for all I have even though it's human nature to want more.

Man didn't I tell you the same thang?

But noooo....it's only the truth when YOUR HUSBAND says so.....

a partially blocked cat will cause the engine to constantly run slightly to a lot hotter. Causing many other failures. Head gasket and warped heads being the most common.

Get a gringo car (or, if you prefer, a yanqui vehicle), si ma'am.

Those are Many questions (Who, Huh, Do), to be precise man. They should feed you, of course man.

And I just went to lunch with the one in Brooklyn. Free.....

I hate the sayings like "I wept because I had no shoes until I met a man who had no feet."

why compare yourself to someone worst off than you.

I have plenty of "why me?" questions in my mind.

thinking of getting a cricut explore air, but also guilty knowing i'll never make full use of it the way die hard crafters do. i just want to dabble, but for $250? arg.

And what, may I ask, is a circus explorer? And why are you trying to get him some air?

Yesterday they show some social apartments given to the poorest people last year and they devastated it after a few months. Like really devastated: broken windows, broken doors, stolen bathtubs, etc. And some of the residents were interviewed about it. One woman, when asked if the city had helped them in any form, said that no way they didn't get any help and that the city doesn't care about them at all.

And I was like: really??? You got an apartment and you still think the city didn't help you??? :bonk:

1. This is why we never let the cat into the garage unattended, no garaged miu man.

2. Depends what was free, see man...

When did you move to new York?

We were thinking Detroit, but Nueva York is of equal quality, sigh man.

What's the matter 8?

Obviously I have issues when he CONSTANTLY is reminding me. Lol

But I hope maybe too much, expect more from myself always, and try harder then maybe necessary, not always to my benefit.
