A new project in the house!


Ben is home this week and my house looks like a man cave! Randy took the week off too, so they could work together on Ben's "new" car, a 1972 two-toned Buick Skylark, Other than the clear coat that someone put on it peeling, it's a honey of a car, the interior is in really good shape, the exterior has a small dent on the front fender from being hit by a Volkswagen, I understand the VW was a totality, but the Buick is basically unscathed.Yea American Made! I got home from work yesterday to the tune of "Don't be mad..." They had the carburetor spread out on my kitchen table, my entire house smells of Gasoline and Grease! But, life is short, it's fun seeing them working together and looking like 2 of Santas elves working on a project! How could I be mad? Last night was also that night that several of Ben's graduating class decided to stop by, I had gone to bed and layed there and listened to the banter and laughter coming from the kitchen table. I love these kids! The house gets awfully quiet when Ben returns to school, but, it is so much fun watching how he's changing and preparing for his future life.

That is so awesome! If you ever need an extra set of hands I will loan out my hubby to help. He loves all that fixing car stuff, I guess thats why we have his bike in pieces in his man cave lol.
