Not to the Ranger but for the Ranger

Well, since today my area is pretty much a Ghost Town, everybody is in KC for the Chiefs Victory Parade, I however had to fix the Rangers Bedroom door.

My cable drum spun and locked the garage door uneven, Grr I HATE messing with those springs. But its back to normal now and the Ranger is happy as is the wife.
I guess I need to check the locking bolts more often as they backed out on one side on the door.
I replaced the springs about 5 years ago and keep winding rods stored above the door for this very reason.

Wife always tries to put stuff in the garage too but it ends up in the trash.

I will have to try that move.
I put up a 32 x 82 x 14 pole barn to fix that. She's not allowed in it and her crap is in the 2 1/2 car garage attached to the house.

In the process of purging the crap in the attic. What the kids don't want is going in the trash. 25 yrs worth of stuff up there and about 1/2 way through. I have a feeling I'll need to purge the garage next. ?

Unbelievable how that parade turned out. It was suppose to be a celebration that every single person in that community could be happy for.

Good luck!

My dump runs consist of carrying stuff to the garbage cans and walking them to the front lawn once a week. Big stuff just goes to the front lawn and either pickers grab it or it gets picked up with the regular garbage.
The wife did make a donation run with the Edge and a trip to our kids place with stuff she wanted to keep.
The purge continues.

Woohoo, got it in the mail and 10 minutes later - ta-dah!

I looked at many and really liked the one that bolts in under all of this but figured I'd bust clips or drop something down the vent. This still lets you adjust the vent and I think I'll use it horizontally like this. It does feel wicked solid and it's easy to place the phone in with one hand (yeah baby, the other hand's on the suicide knob!). =D

Offroam $79.95

everybody's into pretty packaging, it's nice but a waste too

supposedly won't mar the bezel, but considering the suicide knob has spiky bits clamping strongly into the steering wheel, that's the least of my concerns

Drove it to work today, parked in the "shouldn't be any @$$wipes on top of you" section near a co-worker's sweet GT. About 1/2 mile walk to my office but will probably sit most of the day anyway.
