The Greasy Monkey

Where's Wezul?  Just look for his nose...I promise it is in there and you can see it!!!!!!!
Wezul had a brillant idea to start changing the oil in our vehicles.  We will save a lot of money.  Well, I'm not sure if that is true.  If you just take the cost of the oil and the filter into consideration, it seems to run about the same as a chain oil change place.  Wezul tells me, I'm going to jack the car up...my heart starts to fluttering...what about ramps?  We don't have any...well...the scientist in me knows jacking it up is ok...you do it for a tire change...however, changing the oil with your body under the car...hmmm...no thank you...find some ramps and go buy them.  
Wezul found some and bought them.  He brings them home, and they are freaking plastic.  He is like it can hold 8 tons and my truck is only 4.5 tons and the camry is lighter...not making me feel any better....
In the end, he changed the car's oil, but I'm thinking I'm perfectly fine paying someone else, keeping them in a job, and not have Wezul put half of his body under a vehicle.  On the other hand, Wezul got a charge out of changing the camry's oil.  I guess for now, his joy out weighs my fear...for now..........

Who can it be now?

Colin Hay!

Colin's Biggest Groupie...Wezul

It is Colin Hay, former lead singer for "Men At Work".  He unplugged and went acoustic years ago.  He performed solo yesterday - including some of the classics from Men at Work's heyday.   If you are familiar with some of our wedding pictures, he performed at the Clayton Center's Auditorium, and where we are standing is where we had our wedding reception.  Kind of surreal.  Haha...Wezul didn't allow me to hide behind the pillars.  He is very hilarious, he played, talked, and then stood around to sign autographs and take pictures until he met with the last person in line.  We weren't last, but it was very cool...reminded me of the our meet and greet with Big Bad Voodoo Daddy...I guess it is true the apple doesn't fall far from the tree...Wezul had the same glimmer in his eye as Momma Wezul did when she met BBVD.

Fun Times!

Wezul spent Saturday mounting our tv to the wall.  Eek!  The location is not my first choice.  However, based off the furniture we currently have in our bedroom, it was the only logical locale.
The initial wall mount
Wezul adding the first of three holes into the wall
One of the main requirements to add the tv to the wall...hide all the cords.  Hence the need for him to cut three holes into our wall.
Finished mount

The new mounting looks good; however, I am not a big fan of the new room arrangement...but...I will give it a whirl.  At least until we can redo the room the way I really want it...which leads back...to the tv is not in my ideal location...HOWEVER, watching TV in bed is much more enjoyable...no glare...perfect angle to sit up...or lay down....laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...need a vacation to enjoy the new tv location...hey...i may just get one come March 18th if my boss doesn't sign off on a new budget...haha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
