I find the 4 days or nights too long. We work 12 hour shifts. 2 days, 24 hours off, 2 nights. 4 off. Goes better I find. That 24 hours off is a nice break.

I work 12 hour shifts too.......4 nights is a bit long but on your turn going from days to nights you actually get 5 full 24hr periods off......its a nice long break With your schedule above your first day off is kinda shot cause you just got off midnights and its like that every 4 day off stretch.....that kinda sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I get to bed early and sleep about 10 hours......its the only way I can be productive coming off nights and get right back into day mode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DriftBusta Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 We t to the New England Motorcycle racer hall of fame induction ceremony last night. Got to reconnect with a whole bunch of my old racing buddies. Everyone from Doug Henry, John Dowd, and many more were there. Jimmy Ellis was so fast back in the day, some races they made him start a lap down. Later went on to win several national championships with the factory Honda team. Another former factory Honda racer and friend, Jo Jo Keller and me. Dude now weighs 350 lbs. and can still wheel a motocross bike like no ones business. Another legend and former national champion Doug Henry with Mike Treadwell clipping my buddy the bird. . 5B684B86-5DB7-43D9-95A5-9BD5E02B094D.MOV 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good times For the next week, Im going to enjoy dry land and vacation time.. My boss told me that if they can repair the boat they would likely fly me back out, we still have a full load of fuel aboard. If that doesn't happen then I'll be done until May. In the meantime Im going to try and find a spot on an OSV or maybe do some continuing ed. so I can up my license a bit. Oh and Im gonna do some duck hunting and snowmachining!

Woodtick Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 The new Samsung weighed in at #250. Yes I know I need a new floor. The three layers of old floor aren’t helping the ambition dept. Put the old girl to the curb. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody makes that exact size anymore , so it sucked balls putting in. I could have reconditioned the old one, but the wife wasn’t having it. Plus we both hate cooking on electric burners. The new one was normaly $2600 one sale for $1450. That style is fucking spendy. When I bought the house 12 years ago, the oven was the first thing I was going to replace. Until I started pricing them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They tried to get me with buying everything for the kitchen so it would match? (Everything else was at full retail). You should have looked at the sales ladies face when I told her I didn’t care if my Sox matched? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s natural gas. Took 40 amps off my electrical panel. The new one only draws 3.5 amps. Natural gas is dirt cheap. Fuck Com Ed. AKA Exilon........

Anler Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) Horrible weekend. Was going to put my new shocks on yesterday and threw my back out first thing. Hasn't been this bad since i ruptured a disc about 20 years ago. Barely made it to the couch where I laid frozen for a couple hours. Had my wife scour the house for drugs. Found some 6 year old Vicodin took 2. Took 4 ibuprofen and a muscle relaxer. Had her and my son pick me up off the couch so I could go take a piss. Tried everything. Neighbors and friends brought over cbd oil, other essential oils, heating pads, massager, etc.. fuck this sucks. I have alot of shit going on right now. Felt a little better today. Going to the chiropractor tomorrow. Getting old sucks!!!!+11 Edited December 10, 2018 by Anler 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I need something more he will tell me. If I go to the doc they are gonna want to operate and I'm not having it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
