Yes we got trip into State Fair this week. Wound up parking this side of some town in Egypt rode tram back to Fair. We shared a Fletchers Corny dog, they are huge, and wandered around some. No rides though. Was warmer, more crowded and nosier than anticipated so not stay long. We were trying to find tram stop to go back to parking lot when wife face planted over an expansion joint in the concrete. One small cut above right eye but no stitches. Black eye starting to slowly fade. DPD and DFR have some really cool tools and good people! When you have the budget I guess you can have nice things.

Have a Great Week, Gentlemen!!

State won! Cowboys lost! Little Dooey bar-be-que had too much fat and may have gotten a bit too much sauce and the sugar it contained. Good exercise on stadium stairs though. Still feeling it.

Dog ready to come home and there is laundry to do and bills to pay.

Have a Great Week!!

Glad you found yourself a painter that probably has some skills from working on his rentals. Instead of vinyl siding to replace the bricks over the garage going back in with press board looking siding that will have to be painted occasionally but will hold up better than vinyl to the weather.

Think most of the loss was in snot from my nose and burning the calories to blow/hack same.

Yesterday opening day in college football! Thank you Ohio, Florida State, for toppling Texas and Alabama. Mississippi State had intrastate win against Southern Mississippi.

This week is going to be a large, hairy, spiteful woman type week. Major house repair project gets started and throw in some doctor appointments and the calendar got FULL!

Have a Great Week, Gentlemen!!

I don't care what part of the Country you are in - good help is hard to find!! Once you find somebody that does good work you keep them going as long as you can! If not next week, soon after, I have a WOMAN who will be doing the demo/remodel on the gable above my garage door. She has done good work for my mother and brother replacing wood decks and adding wheelchair ramp at Mom'. Either I've got a broken/rotted header, steel to hold the bricks was not bolted into header and she thinks the brick straps from wall into the bricks were left out. Regardless after 30 years the sagging and bulging out has gotten worse to the point I'm fearful it will all come tumbling down on its own. Not going back in with brick above door but siding. Lowe's is going to love me by the end of the year. Had to replace refrigerator this week too. Not going to drop $1400 to have compressor replaced on an appliance I already have replaced one on once before. X2 had to have huge ass stainless steel, French drawer freezer. New one is black, fits the space that was designed for a fridge and holds everything that was in the old one. Win-win.

Better.

Hopefully Cowboys will be better as the season goes a long. Saw some potential.

Have a Great Week, Gentlemen!!

Seems like they start earlier than back "in the day" but get a lot of break time for Holidays, Fall and Spring breaks etc.

Ozzy, Hulk et al. Grim Reaper on OT!

Blaming the uptick on pushing/pulling on tractors. Local rage for those in need of a tractor couple of years ago was an India made Mahindra. New local dealer and plenty in stock. Not as pricey as some of the other brands. We wound up buying a used one from the couple who worked for my mother before they moved to Arkansas and did want to move it. Local dealer went bankrupt and closed so closest one is 40+ miles away. This thing despite being just five years old is in need of some TLC. Work on it some more between doctor visits this week.

Stay cool, stay hydrated and have a Great Week!!

Cruise ship calories don't count against you! Yeah, right.

Wasn't a matter of finding that many missing people but updating their missing persons list and getting people off of the list that had been accounted for. One part of the family cannot reach "Bud and Sissy" and report them missing when they are at "Mary Lou and Thelma Liz's place 100 miles away and have been for a week. All takes time to work through.

You'd figure mowing the yard twice in one week, Monday and yesterday, would have been more beneficial on the scales. Sweated enough for it to have been!
