Where's that 'pervy hobbit' smiley when you need him? ;o)
I do, but don't have cable. But tonight, I'm watchin' over here.
I'm not staying there yet. Getting close, though.
"WooHoo, WooHooHoo!"
I love their commercials!
What about the porch? I remember thinking it needed shoring up a bit. Other than that, the mildew (easily fixed) was the only thing that looked to need fixin' on the outside.
Our house has the same green stuff on the outside in some spots.
I think it's going to be lovely when you get all done!
Did they haul off a bunch of junk?
I love stuff like this and I really wish I could be there helping! I really work like a fiend when I'm on a mission! (Remember when I did the flylady?)
I'm glad you like the picture!! I thought it would make the place a little 'homier'.
And you've hooked Rosie on it.
Poor thing. ;-)
The front porch is pretty well set. There's a little porch in the back that needs a piece of plywood on top and a step repaired, but nothing too much.
And most of the junk is hauled off. There's still a lot of smaller stuff, but the carpet and bigger things are gone.
I imagine I'll find a TON if I try to dig up an area for a garden, though, durn it.
You know, our neighborhood, before it was a neighborhood, back in the 40s and 50s, was a fruit tree orchard! (Bein' as I live in the Garden Spot of Oklahoma). Anyway, to this day I'll be digging in my garden and I'll pull up bits of barbed wire fence! I don't keep it, but I think it's kinda neat...a little glimpse of the history of my land.
Is most of your stuff moved in, or are you keeping it in the van until everything's done with the place?
Heh...I'm thinking the stuff I find won't be quite so quaint...
You aren't paying attention!
I spent most of the afternoon movin' stuff in. There are a few little things left in the van just 'cause I got lazy, but the rest is inside, in varying stages of unpacked.
Sorry. I'm tired and still a little out of it from the weekend :-)
By the way they didn't do anything quite navel-gazing enough to make us walk out - the one your brother went to must have been baaad. Or he just wasn't as eager to get married as we are ;-)
Speaking of paying attention, did you see my post to you about Mr. Beepy?
Well, I hope you can post some more pictures soon, but I gotta log off...Steve'll be home in about half an hour and I've got to get the kitchen cleaned up from supper! Been freeping and shirking my duty! LOL!
See ya!
Yeah, I did. I was going to walk over this afternoon but I was too tired, so I'll do that tomorrow. Thanks.
He's bein' loud again...
Well...his was in the diocese of San Francisco. I think they did stuff along the lines of liturgical dance. He would NOT go for that.
San Francisco, huh? So... not that many couples wanting to get married I suppose...
You definitely don't want to miss 24 tonight, chica.
Whew.
24 - what a wild ride....'you may now resume normal respiratory functions' that is all.
