Default 2009 hopefully the worst year ever!!

wow that hopfully the worst year ever .just one thing after another went form my wife wanting a divorce to getting throw in jail having my truck forfited to the county for somthing that i did not even do.the motor in my snowmobile blowing up,taking a 4.50 an hr.pay cut,my pension has been hammered lost over 400% of it's value,my retirement age just got bumped from 55 to 65.the water heater just went out in the house,bought another motor for my sled and got screwed the motor now I have two motors that are doa.my best friend and neighbor for 16 years died,the supercharger on the belair blew up.my house got pounded with golfball sized hail as well as my wifes van,and one of my next projects my 73 cuda stored with no insurence. it seems like everytime I have turned around this year I have been kicked in the nuts then when I go to get up I get kicked again. I am normaly not one to complain but holly sh!t how much can a guy take. I hope that was the worst year ever and I can honestly say that I am blessed to have such a great family and me and my wife have worked thing out and are getting along better than ever.still have more lawyer fees and court to go through.I hope none of you had such a bad year and I hope all of you have a great new year and god bless all of you!

2009 was a waste for a lot of us in many ways. Not to make light of your year at all Eric, just saying that I can relate and am also hoping for a better 2010.

went out in the shop today and started a new project with my youngest boy. like I needed to start anymore but this is going to be awsome.it is a schwinn stingray chopper bike he has got a great imagination and wants to bring it to some shows so we started rounding up some parts for it and just started on the temp stand and he wanted to make a journal of the build up.nomater how bad life can get this is the greatest thing in the world when your kid shows such intrest in doing somthing that you love to do can't wait to get this new project rolling. awsome day today! I will post up some picts in a next couple days.
