Well let's see what I remember ( Read more... )

The fence guy was out today to measure what I wanted replaced. He is also going to try to fix the gate or replace it. Whichever is easier.

One of my neighbors was getting his roof replaced when the storm started. He got water in his house.

One of my friends at work has several leaks and half his fence down. I gave him my contractors number.

Tornado watch, straight line winds of 50 mph plus. Lots of rain. The so called fence went down again. One of the poles that go into the ground to hold it up snapped at ground level. Where I could sink a nail I did to hold it up. Using twine to hold the center together. I hope the dog doesn't decide to test the fence ( Read more... )

I went and helped a friend today. Of course of all the weeks I'm oncall I get called after I get there. It didn't need to be NOW but someone put a time on things that I did not say. Also I got bad information so I almost had a problem on my hands. I still managed to get it all working right in time ( Read more... )

Let's see.... washed out the grill, cleaned and re-oiled the outside table. None of that has been done for the 5 and a half years I've been in Texas. Of course where there was water there was a dog.

Ammo is through the roof. Talk about profit taking. I think it's doubled in the last year and getting reloading items is tough as well. The best price I ( Read more... )

Dallas turned the Cotton Bowl into the Dog Bowl. Yep the place became an off leash dog park. The whole field, end zone to end zone was a dogs dream. There were pools every 20 yards or so, buckets of water between the pools. Dogs of every size was there. Dogs that normally don't find enough room to run were out there running for all they were worth ( Read more... )

this will drive the dog nuts while we are at work.

Cars are done. You would never know anything happened to them.

Edit:

I thought about the bird. I found her at the other end of the house and she had been there for a while. She left piles all the way back to the cage. Boy is she going to be glad when this is done.

The car is back and the roof get's done tomorrow. Wednesday. Whatever ( Read more... )
