Happy New Year, sir! You are spending New Year’s in a much more celebratory fashion than we will. Probly have Dad over for dinner, and yes - probly won’t see the ball drop either.
As for the day today - replacing the transmission mount (tranny mount just doesn’t sound right any more LOL), and finishing up another coffee table made from a wine bbl.

Unfortunately I'm not doing much. I've been a little sick and under the weather (Covid test is negative) so I'm resting and taking it easy... 
Hope everyone has a great time and has a fantastic New Year!!!

Yeah now that we're settled in to the new place we're also in the center of all the family. Now we do the majority of the Holiday hosting. I had my fill of working on Jeeps over the holidays. My daughter wanted a Jeep though and I had to put a starter in that yesterday.
After what happened with my '80 and me getting pitched like a rag doll I couldn't let her grab a Cj. She wanted something to carry her kayak around so we settled on this XJ.

Resting and taking it easy isnt a terrible way to bring in the New Year. Glad your test is negative and hope your feeling up to par quickly.Unfortunately I'm not doing much. I've been a little sick and under the weather (Covid test is negative) so I'm resting and taking it easy...
Hope everyone has a great time and has a fantastic New Year!!!

Happy New Years ! This will be a quite one for us. My daughter tested positive yesterday after having a couple of days of the sniffles. I believe I probably have it also since i'm having the same thing. So far it is a very tame thing, so we are hoping for the best. My wife is putting together some beef and vegetable soup and also making some sliders and a mexican dip for this evening. Seems like this covid is spreading like wild fire around here.

If you have the Omicron variant, you should be fine. Very mild variant. Enjoy your new antibodies!!

As for us, we are just taking it easy also at home. We are making some carnitas and my son’s girlfriend’s recipe of a hot sauce, we’ll see how that goes. Of course, some cold ones to go with that. I wish you all a happy new year and those with Covid a fast recovery. I have my share of this unfortunate event with my older sisters and a nephew. Thankfully they recovered.

Rebuilding a T-19 with some buddies in the shop while the wives do whatever at the house. Drinking a bit of homemade shine in the shop while the wives drink some homemade wine.
Culminating at the zero hour with celebratory munitions fire and a bit of backwoods smoke.
Hope everyone has a great New Years. Cheers to all

Just a quick update... I actually made it though and even was awake to celebrate the new year at midnight. 
Feeling much better and even am happy with being able enjoy some bowl games. IMOP, the only well known (nationally) down side on the last day of 2021 is the passing of my Mothers fav. GG, Betty White...

We had some shine as well. Here they call it apple pie. Tastes like apple pie with cinnamon kinda , no pie gives you that kind of inner warmth feeling.

A buddy of mine has a source for various flavors of shine, so the last time I asked what the current choices were, this was his response......
Who knew he was a comedian LOL

With three to choose from I see why the next day is meant for recovery.
