[QUOTE="Marcie Mac, post: 80632, member: 47"] In a lot of ways, Danny and I are like two peas in the pod - I don't want to hear I can't do something, or admit I can't do something until I am up against the wall, and still my head is trying to figure out a way to do it. But, I admit (now that I am older) there are some things I just couldn't even begin to tackle. Danny bought a car for 200 - great shape, cept it has a blown engine. He has been working doing some construction jobs, and bought himself an engine, for 150.00. Its been a couple of months - engine parts all over the garage - every dime he makes goes into parts. Every day I come home from work, I gotta go see what new part he has, and get a full detailed description of where it goes.. I offered to get the car to a garage so they can put it in, and he declined - doesn't want my money and he is going to do it himself. He was a bit miffed I didn't have faith in him - My jaw dropped - are you kidding me - I have not taken the pom poms out of my hand over this kid for the past 23 years - I am his biggest cheerleader ever. But I just wanna go hmmmmmmm when I see him put a car together and he has never ever done something like that. I have visions of him driving down the road with the wheels flying off [img]:smile:[/img] SO is amazed he has done so well with it - but admits it a job he wouldn't even tackle if he was able to- it just so, well, involved. At least he has given up on the fact and admitted he could not have it up and running in two or three days Will be interesting to see the end result.. Marcie [/QUOTE]
