    OT: Workout or Exercise Routine

    I get it! It’s actually the easiest part for me though. 2 years sober. But had this been 2-3 years ago I would have never made it a week!

    OT: Workout or Exercise Routine

    I’m on day 25 of the 75 Hard program. Much more of a mental toughness program than fitness but you will see visible results. 75 days *Gallon of water a day *Read 10 pages of a entrepreneur/self help book(I’m reading 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and will move to Atomic Habits then Never...

    OT - End of an era in Jxn, Beatty Street Grocery Closing

    Captain’s log 14:06: Still no burger but I am not alone. Everything was fine until they ran out of tea. There is only one toilet and it’s outside, behind a padlock. The natives are restless and are relieving themselves in the parking lot. I feel like I’m camping out for tickets to see the...

    OT - End of an era in Jxn, Beatty Street Grocery Closing

    Been here waiting on a burger for 2 hours. What are the odds my ladder is still in the back of my truck when I leave?

    I feel like Lemonis has solidified his 2024 outlook

    I’m probably the only one just realizing this, but that’s Will Ferrell in the blue shirt.

    OT: MIL just diagnosed with Alzheimer’s

    You are very correct. I thought I was going to have to have a very unpleasant, for him, conversation but that seems to not be the case. Step father is on board with helping. So far. He has said he doesn’t want to be on any assets and says he knows his limits of caregiving. We’ll see if we...

    OT: MIL just diagnosed with Alzheimer’s

    I feel that’s the move we make sooner than later. I’d just like to have her here while we get stuff in order so her notforshit husband can’t manipulate her anymore than he already has.

    OT: MIL just diagnosed with Alzheimer’s

    And we are deer in the headlights. She lives 2 hours away from us and her now husband(wife’s father passed away years ago)is no help. She has a sister who is a little closer, but not much. The diagnosis is less than a few hours old and the mother-in-law is fighting it. Which was predicted...

    OT: Third-Party Auto Insurance Claim

    This all day. I’m a licensed adjuster and also have experience as a body shop estimator. Progressive WILL miss something on the photo estimate. They will also likely miss something on the preliminary in person estimate. This usually happens after the tech has torn down the vehicle and finds...

    Anybody here into restoring old cars?

    Another slight thread hijack. I’m currently fixing up a 97 Z71 extended cab to be my son’s first truck. The leather interior seat bottoms need to be recovered. Anyone have a good aftermarket option? To make it MSU related, the truck is maroon on maroon and nicknamed The Dude.

    Anybody here into restoring old cars?

    Ever considered converting to propane instead? It’s pretty straightforward and you get the advantages of a pressurized system At probably half the cost. Plus, for a vehicle not being driven much there’s no worries of stale gas. Propane has an effective octane rating of about 114 so you’ll...
