Behold The Glory That Is ME!
Sonia do you remember that 3rd Rock episode? That quote will stick with me forever! But now onto my glory. The other weekend I took home dad's beast of a tiller after it was deemed unfixable by the guys doing it for a living. I figured if I broke it more what's the harm right? We'll I fixed it, now to see if I can make it run in a slower setting that things is a monster! But hey it runs. Then the next day I also fixed our lawn mower. Oh yeah I'm almost as cool as Hillary now. So I was bragging to my neighbors and Laura tells me she borrowed a tiller from her grandma and it doesn't work could I fix it? The answer is a resounding YES. I did that yesterday after school. granted it was only an easy fix. I cleaned up the spark plug because it was oil fouled and reconnected a link to the carb and viola! starts on the first pull. Oh yeah, I look at it and two years ago I wouldn't have even tryed fixing those things for fear of ruining it more. Now I'm a master of the small piston engine, and hopefully I'll get placed where I want to and become a master of the turbine engine. They're WAY easier from my experience than a reciprocating.

You go girl! You get this natural ability (coupled with learned skill) from me! I get it from grandpa p. Now for the toughie... getting Leland to finish the dang counter!
I love it- only the girls from OUR family rock it out like we do! Hillary is busy fixing washing machines, you are fixing yard equipment, and I put down flooring, ride a motorcycle, and put crap together. I love being a strong woman!!!
Isn't it fun being the man of the house? lol I think so! Crack me open a motor!
I love fixing things. Laura promised not to tell anyone I was a nice person. I'm glad I'd hate to have it leak out and ruin my reputation or anything I'd have to go into overdrive evil.
