Re: what a Day

Three hours sounds good for what you accomplished. It could have gone worse.

Re: what a Day

I feel your pain. I spent 6 hours working on my trailer on Saterday. But hey, just think you shouldn't have to deal with it again for a few years.

Those days do happen. It's how you deal with them that matters. Good Job to get it done.
