I need a hug.....lol

Okay.....I'm knee deep into a yard improvement project....loading and hauling dirt away with my 72 Blazer to my property......then it happens.....that sickly sweet taste on your lips.....yeah, you know the one.......antifreeze. So as I'm looking at the green river dump into my passenger floor.....I'm thinking...wow....thats gonna suck to replace.
So.....I get it all apart.....except for that one nut.....yep...the one on the bottom.....un-reachable for clowns like me that cant keep their tools organized....or locked up in the pump house at the other property....doh!!!!
I tried everything......and I need to get the vehicle going tomm.......this is where it gets ugly.....I did have access to my grinder.......muh-huh-huh!!!!!!
Yes, I cut a hole in my wheel well.....to gain access to that last dang nut.......now keep in mind my passenger wheel well is toast up front...so I knew this wouldnt be fatal...and I have a welder...so I can close it up.
So....I have to ask........am I the only knucklehead that has done this?
I feel silly for doing it......but it worked like a champ!!! So....In leu of a hug....I have a Corona.......have a good night people!!!!
