We're supposed to get 2-4" of snow tonight into tomorrow morning. And might get some again on Monday. Ugh. I'm sick of winter...can it be spring already?

Hahaha, that's a good one Shannon

Good night y'all, it's 11pm and I'm pooped!
Tomorrow is a busy day and Sunday even more, that is, if the weather agrees

Haha nice pic!

I came to the south to get away from the snow!!

I wouldn't care so much if we didn't have a lot of things planned tomorrow. Bill is working on his Honda, I'm taking my sister-in-law to be to get her bridesmaid dress for the wedding...I'm super excited about that...snow don't ruin this!!! We're also supposed to have our Valentine's Day dinner out tomorrow night.

Boooo snow.

Thread res!

I'm tired. I've had a LONGGG day! Went to a BMW club/ Porsche club meeting this morning, spotted a NIIICE e30 BMW that I want...

Drove it earlier today, when I found out it has a Dinan chip... that thing FLEW.



Alas, it is not meant to be. The guy won't take less than 6500 for it, which is WAY too much for a 23 year old car with 175k miles on it and the myriad of things wrong with it.
1987 BMW 325iS Red



Then I went to say goodbye to an old family friend. He and his wife are splitting up, and he's moving to Florida. :'( Had to watch my brother and dad both break down in tears before we left... not easy for me to deal with.


Now: I can barely keep my eyes open. SNOOOORRRRRRRRRE

Morning! (or still evening to some)

Today I'm staying home, but if the weather was good I should've been on my way to Brussels.
It's snowing

We got snow Friday night but it was actually really great. We got about 2 inches of snow but the roads were warm enough that it didn't stick much. It got above freezing yesterday morning so by the time we woke up at 9:30, the roads were clear! But there was still snow everywhere so it was just beautiful to look at. Great packing snow too...I made a little snowman in our front yard while the future hubby cleaned off his car

Allowed us to be productive though since the roads were good. I got to spend some time with my future sister-in-law which was great. She's 15 and I went with her to order her bridesmaid dress for the wedding. First time I've spend time with just her. But it was really good. We're going to go shoe shopping together once I decide what shoes I want them all to wear

Cant have that!

There is a Mercedes (1970's I think), maybe a diesel (I dont know much about Mercedes) that is near me here in Greeley. Gorgeous exterior. I would like to take a look at it for fun ... cant buy of course. HA!

So apparently Bosch Icons now have a different style of hook. Well, first of all, Bosch doesn't list any of their blades with sizes for the NB...all they list are OEM blades. Not sure when that changed because I used the Bosch book to look up the size when I got my Microedges. Anyway, picked up a set of Icons today since my Microedges are shot. They didn't have any of the 421A or 421B blades at all. Hardly any numbered sizes like that. Instead, they had the 21" blades in 462. No A or B designation. My fiance had went in to buy some blades for his parents car a few months ago and they told him they were changing the numbering scheme. So I picked up the 462 blades. Came back to install them (we were in his car at the time) and they won't go on. All the pictures they show on the back of the box...none of them show the hook style wiper arms. No clue what car takes these, but they don't have the hook arms apparently. Now I just have to hope they take them back so I can get the 421's. I need new blades!

That is WAAAY too much. That car wouldn't go for over $4k here.

I LOVE that bodystyle! Such a classic look on a great car.


I just got home from the weekend. There is more snow. I'm sick of the snow.

It was bad all the way around! It was Lil Wayne, Akon, and T-pain using autotune. Its for a good cause, and I respect that, but they should have just wrote a different song all together.
