Finally was drivable enough last night to bring him home! Brakes work, but aren't perfect (could barely stop before though so they are much better!). Still need to sort out some electrical gremlins, adjust the shift linkage and a few minor issues. Put back the interior and then he'll be good to go! Darla is happy to have a VW friend again! By the way, the Jetta's name is Klaus  |
Nifty!

It'll make a nice spare bedroom or sitting area. It's definitely what a realtor would call cozy (small) but it's perfect! We're going to have to figure out what we're doing with everything we have in the livingroom right now and basically we'll be sticking to having parties in the summer in the big backyard as the inside isn't conducive to more than maybe 4 extra people coming to socialize. The yard is fenced in so now Rocky will have plently of room to play  The kitchen is also kind of small and we'll only have enough room for our little drop leaf table for eating at, so no dinner parties  But I am ecstatic. It's such a cute little old house but it's been taken good care of and it's in a historic district in a nice quiet little town. I cannot wait!!!!! 
When I get home later I'll post the crappy cell phone pic I have of the front of the house, unless I can fwd it to someone and they can post it. I'll have to see who can do that for me. |
WOO HOO!!!! Congrats AMY!

He had permission to 'sample it'. Their current manager is MJ's former manager and the original band is said to be "thrilled and honored" to have had a legend put his own spin on it.
I'm running away for the weekend. I'm tired, I'm cranky, and most importantly I need a nap!
