Re-Introduction

[ggiese]

We had our two older cats die within a month of each other late in 2011, and we were in the room when they gave them the shots. it was rough. But my wife found a brother and sister from the same litter that were born on her birthday so needless to say, they're now part of the family along with a few more.

I still have a couple of British cars hanging around along with two older GM cars, the newest one being 17 years old, LOL! I kinda lost interest in the Jaguar clubs when the motor blew in the car I used to show seven years ago. I still have the car but not the motivation to fix it, hopefully one of these days.

Don't be a stranger Mark!

My wife and kids have gotten into cats - three of them to be exact. Each has a unique personalities - and the one who has the "lovable" personality way overdoes it (even my wife is bothered - and she loves animals way more than me). I will probably feel differently when the time comes, but I sure would not miss any of tag right now... Well... Maybe Faye, she's kinda sorta very sweet...

We replaced Orion with Dug. We had sworn we were not going to replace Orion with another dog, but couldn't resist this little guy. Literally he looks like a Dug from the movie Up. A woman was disparate to find a home for him, having found Dug on the side of the road in Tennessee. We caved when we saw him. Cost us quite a bit to get him his shots, get rid of the fleas and worms, but it's really been worth it. He's sweet as can be and LOVES my grandson (they're thicker than thieves).

My desire lately has been to find a "project car" I can work on with my son. I keep looking, but not seriously - yet. Chasing Classic Cars has been highlighting some pretty cool British cars. And I saw a recent "What's My Car Worth" episode featuring a 50's vintage Jag. The sucker sold for some serious money, but the owner spent some serious money to restore it. What caught my attention - he and his son had made it their project car and clearly it was a labor of love.
