Tossed another few miles on the car. It'* well over 180,3xx now. It'* sloppy like an old *****, and yet snaps to it when I give it some throttle.
Put a Cuisinart single brew coffee maker on the counter.

Cleaned up the interior a bit. It was too nice yesterday to not be outside after work, even if it was going to rain anyway.
Cleaned/dressed up the leather on all the seats except the drivers seat. Treated/cleaned the door panels, dash, and most of the trim inside. Cleaned a lot of junk out, and reorganized the trunk a little.
Got out my new 18V cordless drill and polished out the headlights and tail lights. (Works awesome. The drill was a good investment). Got out my Mothers powerball and some Meguiars Ultimate compound, and took care of a few minor scratches and scuffs she picked up over the winter.
Also de-badged the emblem off the rear tail light. Took quite a bit of time to get all the gunk off, even using PB blaster to help. They put a ton of adhesive on those things. But it was worth it. Much easier to polish, and looks a lot cleaner now.

Checked under the hood of the 1999 Bonne and saw that it looks like another UIM job if I want it to see another winter. Then I checked out the shiny new Porter Cable and wished the weather would cooperate for me to fire it up.

I caught the day of summer. Unfortunately now that the snow is finally gone again, I see that the grass is starting to grow, so I'll get to put the snowblower away and get the lawn mower out.
