Got my tax returns deposited yesterday. Went to get a $20 oil change at Conrad's during my lunch break, as well as get a slow leak repaired (nail). They gave it their basic inspection, and although most of the stuff isn't critical, the Jeep does need some work. Most of it is suspension-related, but it also needs new plugs, differential service, etc. The big one is the steering stabilizer, which causes the wheel to shimmy like crazy after hitting a bump.
Estimate is coming in around $1100, but I am guessing I can get everything done for $750-800 from White's Automotive in Elyria. They did good honest work for me a few months ago when I thought it needed a clutch.
I think I'll get the suspension stuff done first and the rest in a month or 2.
I am almost at my resolution goal for putting money in the bank for the year, thanks to a nice run in poker and a little from my tax return.
I am gonna be checking out the C-bus casino this Sunday. I'll be in town for work, and me and Fish want to hit it up. I might even play a $5-10 limit game if they have a table going. We'll see.
