It was a nice day. We had a good time when we went out for lunch, and it was a lovely day to sit outside and just plan and talk and look at things after a short nap to sleep off lunch. Everybody needs a day like today was for us. It's supposed to rain tonight, but I see that the radar future view... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. My wife is sleeping in today. I think between the excitement of the move, the long drive, the work we have been doing every day, and everything else going on, Lisa has hit a point where she needs another day off. I've been cautious not to push her. We've been taking frequent breaks and... Sign in to see full entry.

We are going to call it an early night. We've worked all day long, had several of our neighbors stop by to see what we have accomplished, and we both have had multiple phone calls. It's been a day! Even the dogs are sacked out, so I think we will join them. Today's joke: As the kid who was stopped... Sign in to see full entry.
We hope to get the rest of the south side of the house cleaned up today and maybe get started on the west side. Lisa wants to go over to Live Oak, the closest *major* city about twenty-five miles to the east just off US-10 to do some shopping for 'stuff.' It's still relatively cool outside, so we...

Just a quick note to let you know that the place is much warmer than last night, and it is much cooler here tonight. I'm glad we got it installed today! Oddly enough, the weekend is supposed to be quite warm, and then on Sunday night, the temps will dive bomb for ten days or more. Yes, they call... Sign in to see full entry.
Alright, we have HEAT again!!! I'm going to let this new heating system warm-up and let it stay running until it gets to be 80 degrees inside. Tomorrow, we will open the other big rooms up and let them warm up too. Stay safe! V Sign in to see full entry.
Hopefully, our new heating system will arrive today. It won't take long to set it up, and it will be nice to not be so wrapped up in quilts that make me look like an Egyptian mummy. You stay warm, but I tend to move around slightly, and I feel restrained. We have the west side of the house yard... Sign in to see full entry.

It was a good day today, and we got a lot of 'silly work' done. I hope to get into the serious stuff this weekend. When I was under the house, I discovered that one of the 'stilts' allows us to adjust the house to be level in an uneven terrain situation has broke. This means I have to get a super...

It looks like it will be a nice day, so we are out in the yard doing some cleanup work. It is about 70 right now, allowing us to ditch the jackets we had on yesterday and begin to slowly work on our tans. I think at last count, we have filled seven 33 gallon garbage bags of junk we have picked up in... Sign in to see full entry.

Earlier this afternoon, I finished the re-edit of 'Amanda Dawn.' I decided to format it to upload the new ebook file to Amazon. Within two hours, I got an email saying it was ready. We had shut down for the night, so I decided to format the paperback version. Somewhere along the line, Amazon had... Sign in to see full entry.
