I want to tackle some outside projects when the weather permit. I have a small repair of the sidewalk to do...a sack of quickcrete and some elbow grease should fix it. Just frame in the area, mix water with the quickcrete and spread it out and let it dry. I know it has to be above 40 degrees for the concrete to set up correctly. The small entry way must be painted, I have the paint for that already left over from another project. It shouldn't take more than a quart.
Most of the big ones I need done won't get done due to the cost. New carpet and vinyl were on our to do list this year.
Told the 'kid' he needed to clean the gutters and coat the trailer roof this spring. He didn't seem to enthused with those projects.
He will have to do them regardless.
Thanks! Only two kinds of music . . . Country and Western. ;^)
Kids are never impressed with any chores. ;-)
Evening Victoria.
You spend all that Christmas cash yet?
Cute tagline today Sam.
Good evening Victoria.
I'm saving it for my trip, but whatever little left I had is pretty much gone, why, you want some? LOL.
Hi Snippy.

Good luck on grouting your tile, the cake decorating bag should work rather well for the small area that you are doing. Be sure to force the grout into the cracks so that it can bond up to the tile, if you do not have a grout float a rubber spatula should work. After you get your grout in you can clean up with a damp towel or sponge, wipe the length of the tile flip sponge/towel over wipe again then rinse. Should be able to get the tile clean in two or three passes.
BTW you will have a Freepmail shortly

Admiral Pond refused Captain Beach's request to maintain four boilers lit--after all, economy was necessary so the admiral could go ashore to par-tay with the U.S. Consul.
Then when the Navy in characteristic form crucified the wrong man for doing nothing wrong, Pond took a powder--and Beach covered for him.
We may remember these pre-nuclear-terrorism days as the lull before the tsunami.

Yep, Only one more wall to do, we finished the seed storage area in the back. We have about 6 feet of fence to put up and a wall of standards. The electricians didn't show up so we still need that done and then we can move the computer to the proper place and get to the wall we need to finish.
Thanks for the links on Capt. Beach, Jr.

Been there done that...no joy.
I hate to do it but I think I'm going to take into a pro in the morning.
AAAGGGGGHHHHHH!!!
Rats. Good Luck, I hope at least it didn't cost you any data or programs.
Boy could we have used the help!
There is a program I just downloaded a few minutes ago, might get the job done, but I sure don't know how to use it yet!!
