cars, computers and radios

My time wasters.

I have spent the last 3 days fighting with my computer that i needed to fix my car.. 

Today . ..last straw..totally wipe and reload the laptop..

Start over.. i got it started . .. but i loaded the wrong disk.. enterprise.. 

And after spending all evening getting the drivers loaded..i checked the license.. expires in 3 days.. the license i have is for Professional.. not enterprise.. so..

I started the downgrade process..no hack..just upgrade to the lesser version.. ugh.

Then hope when its finished it lets me use my license.

And that it still works ..

What a pain.

Once that is straight, i still need to reload the car software and hope i get it installed and working again..so i can program the module.

..

Anyway i did get my laundry done and the groceries and vacuumed the downstairs.. maybe tomorrow i can go to NB and FR to drop off the radio and pick up another.. 

joe from Florida said he sent a check..and asked if i would fix a boat anchor of a radio.. i declined..the shipping would be way too much.

Plus it would probably get destroyed in the shipping.

..

Bills are coming in and getting paid..

My next paycheck may have my raise and back pay.. fingers crossed.. 

I have a few older radios to finish . No real money for them.. but i need to get in the repair mode..so i can get them done.

...

I am off till Tuesday . Monday is a holiday..and i took Tuesday as a vacation day ..expecting to go up.

But as usual, all the planning in the world dont let stuff happen for me.

Maybe next weekend..

The weekend after that, i have a detail on Saturday.. but . ..i could take that Monday off..instead of this Tuesday..

Work would not care if i came in to work when i requested vacation day..

..

I need to get my car up to the dealership for the fall check out..to make sure its ready for winter driving... and maybe see if glen or glen will let me use the lift to get the O2 sensor replaced. I cant do it in my garage with my limited tools .

...

I have plenty to keep me busy.. 

...

Yeah, i miss you. I wish i was up there, even to see you for a few hours and drive back home.

Really.
