And the hounds were of no help
O you got no idea. The pup thinks whatever I lay down or drop is to be relocated. Includes my hammer, tape, speed square or drops. Boom she snatches it and scurries away. I keep explaining to her that I am gonna trade her in for a goldfish as a new pet.
 
Good morning feels good to be home. I had a great visit with Pete but was too short.
Friday on my way to Wisconsin my sister called in tears and told me my brother just passed away.
Still having a hard time dealing with it.
Fred, my deepest condolences my friend, loosing a brother to anything is going to stay with you, strength and wisdom for you and all your family. Take very good care of yourself as yo head our to help your sister in law, memories will flood you at times, a good doctors visit to test you wouldn't be a bad Idea before you take this on, my mimi stroke hit me as I was helping my brothers doughter bring my brother back to Arkansas, stay sharp and on point Frank, be careful with the caffeine.
 
ELECTRO SHOCK THERAPY IS IN ORDER FOR THE DOG! i DO BELIEVE THEY MAKE A COLLAR WITH A REMOTE! just ask Ben!
 
I like the "helpers"!

My wife put down a layer of straw yesterday over the septic system, and both of her "helpers" thoroughly inspected every strand of it to make sure we didn't bring home any uninvited visitors living inside the bales. She took some amusing videos, but I'm too lazy and tired to upload them to YT for sharing.
I guarantee they scattered it for her! And likely multiple impromptu digging for gold moments! It is windy and rainy here this morning so mine are curled up on the couch all innocent like. I am gonna take a down day and heal a bit.
 

French Silk Chocolate Pie in cupcake cups. What could possibly be wrong with that?

The worst was setting rafters solo, lots of trips up and down ladder with rafter on shoulder go to other end rinse and repeat.
You need a helper or have a framing party. I built a 18x28 oversized attached 1 car with 2 bedrooms over. 1st weekend we framed everything. Seven of us. 2nd weekend we sheathed and installed the windows. After that it took me some time. I was lucky. Four of the helpers were carpenters.

LMAO, In the morning I don't take bad wisdom well, so my nice guy pants was not on lol..I said I don't really care to know where you got that information, but you need to talk to me and get real world information!! We Laughed out loud, he said But The.... thats when I stopped him! Lol.. Son, I have 4 friends running a 904 in 475 hp engines now, and one hitting near 600, but its a built trans, easy to do.. period!!

Oh, yeah! There was plenty of that!

Ideally the straw is supposed to be "airy and light" (to offer some insulation value), and not packed down, but the dogs were having none of that! Oh, well. It's supposed to rain tonight, and then possibly changeover to that white stuff, and that packs it down as well, so I guess we'll just call 'er good for the season.

We are fogged in this morning, couldn't see the dogs for most of our walk, need to put some bells on their collars. Coffee is on and tastes good sitting here on the web.
