We can put up the tree then except that there's a 3x6 foot table in the the living room and an 8 foot buffet. We put the tree where there's a large recliner. This is going to be difficult, if not impossible. Also, whatever it is that goes under the tile on the floor is on.

Prolly cement backer board, so the tile adhesive will adhere.

Yeah, he put what I assume is adhesive on the hardwood and then the white board.

Well, it's been Friday long enough for me.
bis morgen.

it's generally screwed down but your extension is on pillars so he prolly didn't want to chance piercing the sub-flooring.

I forgot, the nail gun was going constantly.

Boss is all right. All that was said while we were kidding around, I was giggling.

Dinner done, dishes done, stuff ready for tomorrow. Heading south to get the new tank finally. Watching The Lion King with the youngest right now while the boys are at scouts.

Yoo-hoo, anybody home?

Oh. Well, then.

I'm here but not for long, got to work for a few hours tomorrow before I come home and work some more.

Sounds like a busy day. How's f-i-l and m-i-l doing?

I was just up to see f-i-l, he's well and getting stronger every day.
I stopped in to check on m-i-l, fixed her tv that somehow messed itself up...cause she NEVER touches those buttons....but she's doing well also. All this stuff has been very hard on both of them.
The leaves have finally mostly dropped so I'll mulch up mine then do theirs tomorrow.

And they never ever take naps either.

Sounds like things are improving all the way around.

Night all. Tomorrow.

Good morning all

Mornin', folks.

Morning! Off to get the tank, visit a friend, generally goof off.

Glad to see that I'm not the only one cursed to be up at this ungodly hour.

Don't hafta be up; just fell asleep early last night. Yup, I lead an exciting life!!

I probably have you beat in the "exciting life" department! Work from 8am to 10pm most days. So...it's work, then hang out with my cat and read, then sleep, repeat. Living the dream.

Haha! This is the worst win ever! To my defense, I do get out of the house when my boyfriend is home.

How often is that?

Good morning everybody! I am seeing better all the time. By last night my vision was so clear that it was overwhelming. This morning there is some inflammation but it is better than it was yesterday at this time.

Daughter and I are going to church to help with "Cookies and Milk with Santa". Kids see Santa, have their picture taken with him, listen to a story, eat cookies and milk then go home. we should be there by now. See ya!

AZGman wrote:How often is that?

Not often enough! This year, I've only seen him for a total of almost two months. Currently, I haven't seen him since the very beginning of September, but before that it was Valentine's Day. His next trip home is in 2 weeks and 4 days. (Yes, I'm counting down the days!)

I'm sure he is, too!

mornin AZ!

a friend of mine has a couple of horses about 20 min from here - we play games, do groundwork....pretty much I just suck up the horse-energy. I call the one a giant golden retriever cuz he just hangs around me like a puppy - puts his head on my shoulder. He's a silly boy.

Any riding or are these just "to look at" horses?

AZGman wrote:Any riding or are these just "to look at" horses?

they are rideable...but she is teaching me Parelli stuff (which is a positive horse training/natural horsemanship method that involves a lot of groundwork first). I am having fun learning that. And just being with them and learning more about horse behavior is fantastic.

I used to work at a horse ranch a long time ago and I miss it so much! You are very lucky!

he is ok - I cancelled the optho appt at Cornell on Mon and am taking him to a local optho on Fri (long story as to why I didn't originally schedule locally - but basically the doc I thought would be seeing him that I didn't want seeing him isn't and the one who is seeing him is the one I wanted all along). And the rest of the herd is just peachy =^..^=

yeah - only prob is she isn't always in the area - travels in from across the state so scheduling the sx might be an issue. But am glad it's local too.

ciao for niao; stay outta the oats!!

Good morning all. We seem to have no hot water. Contractor hooked the water up to the laundry room yesterday. Whether that had something to do with it, or if it's just the water tank is eight years old....Lucky for us, the contractor came to sand today. Currently in basement with husband.
