I am still working on getting the engine inside the shop at the SG, been messing with stupid stuff per usual. ;)

I need to haul more things to the dumpster, but I am about out of room, should get my act together, but so far motivation hasn’t arrived, guess I need to make some from scratch.

I thought I was going to be fuct (and not in a good way), Guido (blue forklift) started getting the wheel stuck when you put it in reverse, lining fell off shoe and wedges or something. So I try and work it out if it, figured it was due to all the rain and sitting outside, it was better, but not great. I unloaded the engine, it stuck a bit, then was fine. When I set it in the shop, that was a different story, I got into the soft stuff, thought I was stuck. I ended up being reckless and just went for it, Guido made it out! The engine was just in far enough the the door closed, so I am headed out and things are better than they could have been. ;)2600EF3D-5534-4E5F-B4D1-EE7EF8DBC216.jpeg550D0058-87D9-4362-9016-EFECC5073CF3.jpeg3C893E2C-1C6C-473A-A205-4F0CC5EA9873.jpeg7504B247-3F9F-4FD9-B250-0B5B920FCC47.jpeg76268E77-BDE5-4082-AF59-E0ED67655C0C.jpeg

He should commission a trailer from one of the YouTube fabricators... They get material to make a video and he ends up with an awesome trailer....

Nope, been feeling crappy, so now my GF has made me quarantine until tested, no one had a local appointment until Saturday for a test?? Regardless, pretty sure it is a cold, but I want to be safe for others around me. I have been doing paperwork, probably need to go to the office at some point, luckily I am the only one that uses the office, so no issues for spreading anything there. Worst part was I had been having issues with my neck and upper back, so I spent a couple hours on Saturday and Sunday with the impulse massage gun. So when I got the first symptoms, I also had an "upper body ache", no fever, no real cough, but the phlegm will make me hack a time or two, especially when I go from horizontal to vertical or vice versa. "Upper body ache" is all gone, but my throat feels like someone ran a rasp through it while I was asleep. I figure if I do feel better in the next couple days, I will go back to doing my alone things and just stay clear of people until the test comes back, hopefully negative.

I'm assuming we're referring to the five letter plus two numbers illness that shall not be named?

If so, I've heard that can really **** for some people and not so bad for others....

I hope you get treatment early and it helps!!! Feel better!

It effects everyone differently. One friend got it and said it was the worst thing he ever went through. Another friend got it and said if it hadn't of been for not being able to taste anything he would have barely known he had it.

I just started the no taste/smell thing this morning. I can still smell strong odors and I can still taste bitter/spicy things. I will keep you guys updated, if I die, who wants the Lista cabinets?

If you see a new thread called “The ghost of Salvage Garage”, run…

I actually think my sense of smell and taste is coming back, I am eating and I can smell the cheese, plus taste it. I do have a vivid imagination, so it could just be that. I can’t taste the cherry flavor of the halls cough drops, but that could also be the overwhelming menthol effect.

When I had the unmentionable thing it started on Thursday afternoon and gone by Sunday morning. Lost taste and smell for 2 days , then all back to my normal. Hope yours turns out the same. Have lost a couple of people I know, but thankfully no one in the immediate family or close friends.

I am curious to know if losing, then getting back sense of smell and taste so quickly means that it will be a quick overall recovery? I do have some muscle ache again, but I feel like part of it is just from being in bed or in a chair for far too long since Monday.

You said no high temperature? I thought that was a main symptom too?

No matter really, I hope you feel better soon. A cold, flu or what ever, they all ****.

At least you can use this as an excuse to limit your contact with people you don't want contact with. Well, unless you WANT to have contact with them...

I suggest you use a lista like an inner sarcophagus and then put that into the back of your recently re-purchased first 'burb? Like the Egyptians did.

OK, so the OGMC is reserved for burial purposes.

I am hopeful that I don't get too sick, but you never know, I am considered morbidly obese due to BMI....

Still no fever, assuming that is a good thing, I also use a CPAP, so I know what low blood oxygen feels like, no issues with that. Only time I have trouble is when I roll on my back or from my back to my side, I end up coughing due to some phlegm type stuff, but after that one cough, it is back to business as usual.

I should clarify that my time sick was 8ish months ago and indeed had a high temperature for about 30ish hours. I am also considered obese by body mass as well as a type 2 diabetic. All of this means nothing based on individual reactions and also several new variations. So take care of yourself, and use it as an excuse to relax , but not too long.

So is Arnold Schwarzenegger in his prime, And every other muscular TV hunk ( the Rock etc.), not really universal measuring method, % body fat is a far better gauge. Now how about a nice burb or maybe a C-70 for the flattery? LOL!
