My truck has something like 56,xxx on it now, I think. In just a couple months over two years of ownership, too.

It turned out nice. But I am sure once you got up on the scaffolding, you were like "8 feet is good enough".

Even though I know the final-final details will never get done and it will hang out there forever and ever..
We paid a guy to tackle our drywall work. I am learning that ceiling paint NEVER matches. Doesn't matter if you use the same can or what, it just does not match. So I have some painting to do soon. Oh, and I also have to get 2 gallons of an older paint we used matched. Shouldn't be a problem as we have the old paint label that comes with the can.

Your driver seat is probably all sorts of contaminated with fecal matter after 300k of 's in it. You should swab it and see what grows from it.

Liz and my driving has dropped off quite a bit. Both cars are about 125k. They were both bought 5.5 years ago. Both were used,, one at 17k, the other at 47k.
