Good evening, Kathy!
*HUGS*
Thanks very much to you and Star for this evening's Hall of Heroes thread - Chuck Yeager stands at the pinnacle of our Pantheon of Heroes!
No fixit today - recovering from the acts of yesterday. Plumbing has to be one of the hardest of manual labors - John-Man and David both helped me in that effort.
I'm about 30 minutes from hitting the sack. Monday Reveille is always the hardest.

Yep, and I love ‘em! :)
So long as it doesn’t flood! With Don gone to take care of him Mom, watering this yard was going to be a real chore. Now all I have to worry about is getting it mowed. LOL!

Well, y’all have had way TOO much there in your part of the state, but we’re up for the year, and yes, the drought is over here too. We have no more water restrictions! Woohoo!! That was SUCH a pain in the behind!

Buckets came down again today.
Anyhow as am aside please pray for My old friend Nicky.
He is the quintessential happy chappy but he is pushing 90 now and life is catching up to him
Breaks my hear to see it, he hes been such a steadfast soldier all his life.
Anywho I am rattling about and need to go to bed
Sorry I missed you on the last sojourn

Must retire for the evening -
The Bugler, his grim visage replete with an evil sneer,
already mounts the parapet.
