    Dog got his annual checkup today, technically his 1yr but a few months late. Officially 81lbs at 15 months of age.

    I personally don't mind it. Husband seems to have something against the front.

    Husband recalls the Edsel Ford.

    Okay, husband's opinion is that Marge/Margareta is a good name for a Mercury, "Margareta the Mercury Grand Marquise". In the end it's my car, but I know he's going to put a stink up about it. 🤣 Which is fine, because if he likes it too, he'll call her by it, which is entertaining to me. He...

    I do think the Marigold/Marge/Margareta sounds great with the Barbarossa. Marge for short, one of the others for when it's more serious. I agree that Margareta seems to fit the naming scheme we have around here. Marge/Margareta... We will try it and see how it goes.

    Well, if hubby weren't doing a project already, we might consider some more serious swaps. He's is in the process of putting a 5.7 V8 LS into a '93(?) manual S10. Originally, that engine was going to go into an '04 Town Car, but he sold her after the coolant fiasco with mine.

    But yes, she is a very lovely car, a boat to ride, even though we stiffened up her body roll and gave her a tune that made the gear shifts a little rougher. Still "luxury".

    Okay, so I actually got to go drive a V6, when the one we were eyeing was a V8 Pursuit. I had a lot of fun. Much more horsepower. Husband is partial against the Lincoln because of certain Ford design choices that make it a nightmare to work on. Design choices that got him a full face of coolant...

    Husband attempted to convince me to let him sell her and replace her with a Dodge Charger, but nope, here she is. She is heavily favored. Esteemed. Held aloft. Iwillcrywhenshegoes Edit I mention because a theme of being prized could be another way to go with names. I am undecided.

    I'd look into essential oils. I make a spray for spider mites that wipes them out and makes the leaves glossy. Not sure if it'd work for white flies. Use 1/8 cup (or 2 tablespoons) of distilled water 1/16 cup (or 1 tablespoon) Castile Soap 5 drops tea tree essential oil 5 drops peppermint...

    QUESTION It has come to my attention that I should totally definitely name my car. "She" is an '03 gold Lincoln Town Car in good condition. Husband has dumped a good bit of time and money into improving her handling (throttle body, sway bars, Marty Tune etc). She is technically my first car. Our...

    I hope you get the chance to go someday! It's a very cool museum.

    Has anyone ever been to the Wright Patterson National Air Force Museum in Dayton, OH? Since I grew up in that half of the state, I got to go a few times. It was actually where I got engaged and where we had our first date, lol! They've got the Memphis Bell there, which is for sure one of my...
