Post by: Mike on November 28, 2014, 07:11:34 am
I wanted to order some foam and vinyl to finnish a couple toon seats. my distributor said the currier was delivering Friday so coolo I get it and work Friday Saturday to get them down and paid Monday. so I called my curreior driver cell and he said no delivering Friday so I called the shiiper back and asked to switch to ups. they said iw was going to be about $300 for the foam alone ,really?
SO OK ID LIKE TO COME AND GET IT MYSELF hour and a half drive when they say there closing early at 2pm it was 1pm   
so I decided why fight it ill see the order Monday 4 days sitting around. I would have worked all weekend so I wentr and bough a gallon of bottom paint for my new boat

Me too Mike!

I was down all yesterday, due to going to kid brother's house for the turkey and sides.  It was tons of fun.  We laughed and I got to play Barbie with my great-niece ; ) but projects are piling up.  Last week things went smoothly and I checked lots off my to do list but Mon-Wed, I was mostly spinning my wheels.  Couldn't get back in the groove today.  Hope that next week settles down and I can get work done.
