Summer is winding down

Marianne and I came to the library to check the blogs. Our computer is at the computer shop, hopefully back next week. We are suffering from computer withdrawal and missing out on the blogs. We a had a fantastic time at Jim and Lisa's. I will post and send some pictures when we get the computer back. Thank you so much for having us, even the runt and the moose!!

Charlie was neutered on Tuesday and is doing fine. I missed him terribly while he was gone to the vets office. He was moving pretty slow on Wednesday, but seems to be back to his normal self now.

I think we went through the blahs and the "what do we do nows" after being with family for the week and then returning home. We are going to Hamricks today and then swimming. Marianne has to go back to school this coming Thursday. I have a little bit more time than she does. I will have to focus my time on getting some more of the mess cleaned up at my house. Maybe even paint the master bathroom (weathered sandstone). I think I go back to work on August 11th. It would be better if they just kept paying and I stayed at home.

Finished

I finally got those blinds up on the french door in my bedroom. After the repairs were done, you couldn't even tell I screwed it up the first time. : ) I put up shelves above my dresser for the tv, satellite, and dvd/vcr. The most remarkable part of that was that I actually got all of that stuff hooked up and working correctly. Marianne and I watched a Veggie Tale dvd and Icabod and Mr. Toad on vhs just to make sure. I was very proud of myself. Now I just need to do something with this computer...it's being very bad, going slow and randomly shutting off...not a good sign.

If you people in Kentucky and New York would quit hogging all the rain the horses would appreciate it. Send some rain our way for a change!
