Another Busy Week
I can’t even remember why or what, but this week was non-stop. Haven’t had as much time to write the posts I would have wanted to write. Hopefully the weekend will be a little slower. We can get caught up. We did get to meet our neighbors 4 day old daughter. She was super cute […]
Office Assistant
Had some scheduling conflicts the other day, so Lauren ended up at work for about an hour. She sure is a cute little Lu. – b
Driving That Train
The girls climbed up on the tractor and pretended they were steam locomotive engineers. Abigail used the deck lowering lever as the Johnson Bar. Lauren did the steering, which wasn’t very train like. It was all fun and good until Lauren fell off and hit the ground. Such is life when you’re a kid – […]
Oopsie Dupsie
Lauren, how am I supposed to get upset when you spill your oatmeal all over the floor, then look down and say “Oopsie dupsie” like it was totally out of your control? – dad
More Work Not Enough Play
Not a statement against what had to be done, just a general observation… Grandma got herself some fancy new washing devices about a month ago. Unfortunately the knuckleheads that installed them screwed up and she really hasn’t been able to use them. After about two hours of work and a trip to the hardware store, […]
Trailer’s Finally Done
Built/installed the final piece for the trailer. I had previously made and used the rear tailgate, but hadn’t gotten around to making the front. Yesterday while hauling some debris, half of it spilled out the front when I came to a stop. That was annoying and embarrassing. Now it shouldn’t be a problem. Overall it’s […]
1 Ton Capable
Had to haul off a pile of block from Grandma’s house. Took it to the dump and after weigh-in realized I’d hauled a little over 1 ton. Not bad. Means I could haul pellet fuel fairly easily. If we keep the truck. – b
Problem No More
Started with this. Ended up with this. Of course it took some help. It was their job to hold the faucet while I turned the nut underneath with the basin wrench. Uh. Hmmm. Mmmmm. Hold the faucet girls. That’s better. Thanks girls. – b
Mommy I’m Scared
That’s been Lauren’s theme this week. She won’t go to bed because she’s scared. She wakes up and comes to our room because she’s scared. We ask her what’s she’s scared of and she usually tells us it’s either the gremlins taking her books out of her shelf or of someone coming to take her. […]
Almost Ready to Ski
Rented skis for the girls and myself. Now all we need is skis for mom and some snow. – b
