Well, I'm back. Kitchen is still not done but I do have some pictures. View attachment 97807 View attachment 97808

That's gorgeous, Sheila!
Long time, no "see", how are things going for you and Mr. Sheila?

Worst type of weather ever! Temps hovering around freezing, or just over, and it's raining! That means all that wonderful rain is falling on freezing roads and making things...um, interesting. It's like driving on an ice rink in a lot of places. Now the wind is coming up, the kind that blows down branches and polishes the ice with blowing grit and sand. I'm thinking work will be interesting tonight...

 

[Gracie]

Evening, folks!
Just a quick howdy and hello, with no whines on my end this time. I am just thankful the weather is still good and not too cold yet. High 50's at night, 75 to85 during the day. Very unusual weather, but we are still thankful for it.

Been at social services all day filling out paperwork, and we have been up since 6am, so it is bedtime soon. We are no longer nightowls, needless to say, lol. Too much to do, too many people to contact. But I have a gut feeling things will be better soon. Keep your fingers crossed!

Night night.

I am just "peachy". Thanks for asking. How about you? Doing ok?

Well I'm not happy it's been 5 months and it doesn't look like my kitchen will be done by Thanksgiving...but other than that, I'm fine.

Why is it taking so long? You still have two weeks until Thanksgiving. Maybe?

Woo hoo. We could need a new roof BBD and we have an $1,800 deductible on our homeowner's insurance. I also need a new toothbrush.

But aren't the banks closed on Veterans Day?

Actually I need an AWD or 4 wheel drive pickup with running boards, crew cab and all the amenities. My little Subaru turned 21 years old last month and though it still runs great, I need something to haul stuff to the dump and haul stuff home that we buy, etc. And the family pickup here in town is moving to California at the end of the month.

It turned out OK. By the time I got up to go to work the chinooks (similar to Santa Anas in CA) had warmed and dried up a lot of wetness and ice. I still had to be aware of black ice, though. First half of the shift was windy, but warm. I tend to be a baby when I contemplate icy road conditions.

I agree. cereal_killer how about one more button that expresses 'so sorry' or "I care" or "I hear you" or something like that for those posts you want to acknowledge of another's difficulties and clicking on 'winner' or 'thanks' doesn't quite express it?

Long time, no "see", how are things going for you and Mr. Sheila?

Except for my house not being done, and being way over budget, we're doing fine.

If we're going virtual, I want a castle, on a Island, surround by beautiful plants....
