I was planning on steak, eggs and home fries this morning, but I'm still full from yesterday. Burp.

After much debate, I got Milwaukee M12 drill and Impact drive instead of Bosch. Main reason was Milwaukee had bigger batter ver on sale. Also got all the shopping done, so now I can sit back and relax at home.

I finally threw out my 30 year old Makita drill/driver a couple months ago and got the M12 one. Very happy with it. Also picked up the 1/4 inch ratchet, and plan on getting more M12 stuff.

I went for a bosch myself a year ago... mainly so I could borrow extra batteries from my dad when I need them

Picked up a 6" griot's polisher for black friday.

Been eyeing them all year and it was the best price I'd seen by far. Won't use it until the spring but already excited to step up my detailing skills.

They're very compact and small and easy for my wife to use, but powerful enough to do the job. Will be using it to install TV wall mount and garage storage bought today.

I had leftovers of breakfast from yesterday. My mom has this fantastic egg casserole type dish she makes for holidays. Amazing.

Usually she'll use pork sausage but this time she had thick cut bacon inside. Cheese, mushrooms, etc.

Sounds yummy. I ended up making it for brunch, now I need a nap.

The "small and easy" was a big reason for ditching the makita. Battery technology has come a long way in 30 years.

Oh def battery & power tool technology came long way.

Oh, and the little 1/4 ratchet is a huge time saver. Love the electric wrenches. I think I might go see if I can get the 3/8s ratchet at HD today.

The most I've ever gotten out of a set of summer tires ever is 12k miles, and I only got that many because I ran them until one blew out. Fortunately run flat. Typically 9k for me. That said, we've managed to get 30k on a set of all seasons that are rated for 90k!

I have an M12 jacket that heats up with one of those batteries. It's pretty awesome! Still, a DeWalt 18V will do jobs that a little M12 can't. I went in the other extreme for tiny jobs. I have a couple USB-chargeable screwdrivers that just reduce hand twisting.
