Didn't buy, but took back the 8 too many boxes of flooring we bought. Six hundred bucks we didn't have yesterday.

I can never remember to bring my Makita gear home
from work when I need it...

So I bought a Bosch 18v drill and impact driver for home..
and a torch that takes the same 18v battery's..

what is really amazing is it's made in Germany not China
miracles still do happen..

Somehow or other, I scored a 36 volt Bosch drill years ago. Built an entire deck with 1 1/2 batteries.

I have no Bosch battery tools ,I do have three big recip saws that are complete garbage .They have tons of power ,but after a few hours of cutting metal ,they no longer hold onto the blade .I have warranties them so many times ,I just ended up replacing them with Milwaukee super sawzalls .Too bad about the Bosch ones though ,they are real nice for the first few hours .

Forty bucks to get my Jeep out of the O’hare G parking lot. That was 12:02 am, so that counts as today.

Technically i paid for it a couple weeks ago but it arrived on thursday. And that was the parts from a newer ford pick up to upgrade my old bumpside F250 to having intermittent wipers. However today i made a deal on an 1987 Honda CRX for $200.

I bought an extra 45 minutes of sleep sitting in traffic because of a wreck. Lucked out. Wasn't my day to drive in the carpool!

^^^ That is Awesome. After fighting the beltway in the DC area for 13 years I checked out. Early out of the rat race. Have seen it all in traffic. People rubbing one out, male and female. Applying make up, putting on pantyhose, reading the paper, cell phone usage and eating while driving.
