mowerman Posted August 10 Author Share Posted August 10 Funny you should mention that I have all kinds of ambition on Saturday morning. I am running around like a mosquito, but if I don’t get out there right away and start watching TV that’s as far as I get ha ha… bob 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/36/#findComment-556792 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted August 10 Author Share Posted August 10 And I thought I might add …it really surprises me at 68 that I am this ambitious as I am on the weekends because all I do is sit and sit all week I think I mentioned that before you would think I would be the laziest guy alive, but I probably already said that too but OK I’ll repeat myself . It’s Saturday at last ha ha I thought I would never get here bob 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/36/#findComment-556799 Share on other sites More sharing options...
