I have gotten some work done though.. dishes done.. clothes being washed.. Nailed a piece of trim in the laundry room.. I build a shelf in one of the instant garages to hold the 9 insulating shutters from the sun room... and have moved them out there.

sitting a bit with some yogurt.. and then... :thinking:


Does the yogurt enjoy your company? :thinking:

Hope you feel better. :worship:


It seems to.. we sit and chat..

8) 8)

Thank you...

Laundry done.. what next... :thinking:

hmm I would like to put a new latch on the screen door

and perhaps install my new motorcycle battery today.

perhaps latch next.. :thinking:


The oil pan is in for the bike....maybe we will pick it up tomorrow. It is supposed to be pretty nice this weekend.


:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

We are supposed to be fairly nice also.. I have to get mine inspected first.. and I don't think I will look at that until next week.. but we have a bit going on this weekend anyways..

I also have no idea when I go back to work.. it could be any time.. :o

ok... the latch is installed. :D

It's just a homemade screen door.. and I just had springs holding it... and I had a cat get out last year.. so I have wanted and needed a latch. I had a spare Whitcomb latch on hand.. and one not made for my almost 3" doors. So I used that. I will need to order 3 more latches.. for the thicker doors.

hmmm perhaps I will do that now. :thinking:

Well, I got home from work about 8:30 this morning but have been working on some things and making phone calls.

Boss gave the choice of staying and working in the rain or going home, so.................... :D

Anyway, I still have things to do around here, but wanted to stop by and say 'HI'!! :)

We'll have another couple "steps" to go before we find out. Hurry up and wait.

I think I am putting a fence up tomorrow... :thinking:

along the two border sides that we share. I will go see my good neighbor tomorrow. The one with the farm. I am guessing the type of fence he has will be my cheapest... an electric fence.. except I won't electrify it. He uses some steel stakes with some fiberglass rods inbetween.. and he uses the polytape type.

I wanted to put one up before.. but Laurie did not think we would need it.. :roll:

something tells me I am not going to sleep that well tonight... :x :(
