October Edition

As we roll up to Halloween, I've got a few things making me happy:

Got to spend a rare weekday hanging out with my dear wife yesterday.  We didn't do much of anything but it was nice anyway.

After a long period of procrastination over buying the parts and another lengthy period of procrastinating over actually doing the work, I have finally installed new front control arms in my car.  The ball joints were worn and the alignment was off so I was wearing out my front tires faster than necessary.
The first drive with the new parts had me spooked as the alignment was now WAY WAY off. I actually crept back to the house and jacked the car up to make triple sure I'd bolted everything back together. But after a trip to the alignment shop WOW does it feel nice to have a car going down the road with all the wheels pointing the right direction.
Now on to the next thing on the list.  Sadly the list is long these days.

Emily's club team seems to be doing pretty well.  They tied the powerhouse team from Savannah and stomped the team from Brunswick last weekend.  This weekend they have to go down to Savannah to play that team again.  Here's hoping for a win. Just one more game after that but it's with then now-bracket leading Troup team. They stomped our team early in the season when it was super-hot and we didn't have a full team of players. Fingers crossed.

I'm glad the super-hot temps have seemed to calm down a bit.  I was hot for a LONG time and I spent a lot more time outside this summer than I usually do.  Fall weather is much better.

Well, that's what's making me happy these days.  What's making YOU happy?
