Hey guys.
Been busy trying to make money.
I get home and am exhausted with barely enough time to get much else done or have any fun.
Today I did go and pay my rent for next month so I didn't have to worry about it later.
Then I played 2 matches of ROS which I feel I am improving at.
I made a grocery list and am going to try and hit up Walmart after work and at least get some of it.
The dog days of summer have finally gone and soon their will be snow fall and cold winter days.
Trying to save up enough money to get an oil change, brake work and a couple new tires before that all happens.
The transmission on my car is slowly going out.
It slips if I don't give it plenty of time to warm up and I usually don't have plenty of time.
I think that at some point I will need to figure out another vehicle but for now I am hoping to get through 1 more winter with what I have.
Everything is in a very boring state right now and Im just trying to make it to the weekend.
Hope to have something more to post about soon.

If its slipping after sitting a period of time its the torque converter draining back. I dont know about fords but starting older Dodges and letting it idle in neutral gets the fluid moving faster. Check your tranny fluid level. Again i dont know about fords but older Dodges you check it warmed up and idling in neutral

Forgot to say buy used tires at a junkyard and buy rotor and pad combos on ebay. I just put 4 drilled and slotted rotors and pads on one of my rams for about $250 in parts. You can buy standard rotors and cheap pads for less obviously.
The following users say it would be alright if the author of this
post didn't die in a fire!

Change your trans fluid, easy enough DIY.

Im worried changing the tranny fluid will just make things worse.
I really wish I could do a better job working on my car.
I went to school for a mechanic trade and use to be pretty damn okay at it.
Now im old and my back starts to hurt so I just crank every bolt to the max, wrap it in duct tape and call it good.

Work is going well.
Just finished up my first job of the night.
Going to go work on other things for the next 6 hours and make this money.

Only if you see that your enhancement is full of debris.
Not sure why I'm posting this as it's clear you're only here for the drama/attention & no true intent to solve issues.

I worked another voluntary 10 hour shift like a big boy trying to get his fix of an unstainable spending habit.
Then I went to Walmart and bought $85 worth of junk food to live on.
Now Imma take a shower and then play video games while I wait 2 hours for this Great Value brand lasagna to cook. (It's the Mexican style one!)

If you didn't buy junkyard tires you wouldn't have to replace all four at once.

It took an hour to do the dishes, watch some porn and take a shower.
I still have one hour left for playing video games.

Played 3 or 4 games of ROS.
Didn't win any but got some good practice in.
I pushed to hard and threw caution to the wind pursing action packed fun.
Wasn't about to crawl slowly through grass all morning just to find a shitty piece.
