I have worked on cars since I was a kid. I will admit to not doing a lot of it in the last decade. We all know why.

So Vivian had a headlight bulb burn out in her 2010 chevy malibu. No big deal, says I, pick one up on the way home and I will pop it in. I guess I had not changed a bulb out in one of these over-engineered cars yet.

I think it took me about 3 hours to change out every bulb in the front of that car. I left just two bolts fastened on the opposite side of where I was working to help line it back up. That and because I had nobody to help hold it up when reassembling it. I changed all the bulbs because you know what would happen. Two weeks down the road another bulb goes out :-)

 I went in yesterday for my pre-employment drug screen. While waiting, I decided to look at a magazine. The choices were golfing or good housekeeping. Saw a mention of recipe on good housekeeping.

Womelets(you can google it and get recipe). We had them last night. We substituted ground mozzarella for the gruye're. Used canned, diced potatos and chopped mild banana peppers instead of pickled peppers. They will be eaten regularly here. They were great. No, we did not use syrup. I will come up with a sauce. But not a sweet one. They actually were mouth watering and did not need anything. We had mandarind orange slices for a side.

I got my shoe anvils in last week.

I also found a place that teaches shoe cobbling.
Next spring I hope to attend their seven day workshop. Do I really need to learn how to make my own shoes? No. But I have always had trouble finding shoes that fit well. I decided it was worth looking into what it takes to make my own. It has been an elusive quest to say the least. So... Although I could just pay someone else to do it, I will not.

About the new job. The first show is in Columbus, Oh. on February 5th and 6th.

Things are really looking up. It will be pretty busy until the end of July. Then sailing season is on. I am starting to get all jacked up about that :-)
