Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I spent the entire 4 day weekend working on/in my garage. It is in dire need of improvement to turn it into a functional wood-shop.
I have started by adding some additional collar-ties and framing the walls to be insulated. Moving and adding a few circuits and lights, etc comes next. It has had adequate light for years, but they are very out-dated and likely costing me a lot. There were 6 fixtures with two 8' fluorescent bulbs each, but they were the old style "single bullet" at 60 watts per, that's 720 watts every time I hit the switch. Totally unnecessary in the days of LEDs. So far I have only added two 4' units to replace them, but I'm not sure I like them. They are very bright and the ceiling is only 8 feet high. Most of the time over the last two weekends has been in just moving/purging to make room to do this, the other end is quite a mess.
