Sorry for the temporary disappearance!

Hey all,

Sorry for disappearing for these last few weeks. I know it's been a while since I've posted! I sold my old laptop, and it was a while before I could get my new one (had to order it from Canada, lol!) Unfortunately, the site doesn't run very well on my phone. Anyway, since the passing of my birthday (thanks for the email, by the way!) and Christmas, I'm now ready to really jump on my project!

Progress has been slow because I waited until the last minute to get my Eagle Scout board of review scheduled, but for any of you involved in the program, I've passed my Troop board of review and am now waiting on my Council review!

My Uncle (who bought my car for me as a 16th Birthday present) just told me tonight that because I've been so adamant about learning and working on the Orange Bomb and paying for parts, he has eradicated my debts and told me he will make sure I get a paint job. All I have to do is body work and interior! Thank God West Virginia treated the car well, it is very mechanically sound.

So, I will keep everyone updated as time passes and I continually fix up my Cutlass. It's going to be a fun journey, I know it. There's a school dance in February, so I'm hoping to have the body and some interior work done by then! I'm going to try for a paintjob by prom in May.

Sorry for the long-winded post, just wanted to update everyone. Thanks again and have a great day!
