Cleaning Carbs. .

Do you have someone that makes you feel good? That is a pretty substantial question but I find it amazing the effect different people have on each other. My Marriage just ended with a woman who at the end just didn't seem to want to be around me. Maybe she never really liked what I stood for, who knows really. What I do know is we were never able to be really comfortable around each other. I jump to my present time and I have met a woman who is opposite my wife in almost all ways. Without going into too much detail, the quality I enjoy the most about our relationship is our ability to talk and communicate openly. This may come from the backlash of a non-communicative relationship, which I swore I would never be in again, or maybe it is because we are is similar situations. She has been there for me throughout this ordeal I am dealing with and I get to be a shoulder for her. I find myself looking forward to hearing about her day and our evening talks. It is wonderful.
Let me tell you that I am guarded. I have a mission and a plan, which I will no longer deviate from. MotoHaus will grow with me at the helm. I have been flailing around for way too long. I feel that it is all I have left from my six year marriage, are my beautiful kids and my beloved Coffee House. I will lead them both to greatness. I can feel it. I will continue with them as my major focus and hopefully someday I will be able to share myself with someone again. Someday. . . but not now.
So last night we chatted while I cleaned the Carbs on my BMW. I had the phone on speaker while I pulled apart the atmospheric chamber and cleaned and polished the slide. We talked about the day she had as the Pilot Jet was removed and cleaned out. The Pilot Jet is your low idle jet. This has to be cleaned and unobstructed for your bike to idle well. Onto talks of climbs we are wanting to do, as the heinous amounts of carb cleaner are dispensed to get all the gunk off. This poor bike had a tough end to it's life. Maybe I should get into the bike I am building back for the road trip. I think the next blog I will do that. I'd better finish this train of thought.
I think relationships are the most important investment we can make. I am super happy about this one. I have lot's of friends and family but to have someone to share you day and be genuinely interested in how their day was is great. It feels easy and I look forward to our talks nightly. I would wish this for everyone. Life is tough and being able to share it someone is very helpful. Also to offer your shoulder to someone else's problems reminds us that we are giving and loving. Cheers. I am losing my train of thought still so I'll be back later. - m
