Coming Soon!!!

Ah, vacation looms!!! Sunday we're off to spend a glorious week doing nothing but acting like the grown-up kids we truly are!!. I have purchased, and hold right here in my grubby little hand two, 2! park-hopper, all locations tickets for Disney, muhwahahahahaha. I am so pysched for this I can't stand it. I feel like a 8 year old the week before Christmas, I CAN'T WAIT ANOTHER MINUTE!!! Oh, God, won't this week end!! On a more serious note, it appears that we have all bases covered. 2 extremely trustworthy friends to housesit, employees to cover the kennel, time off and we're almost at lift-off.

The roof is finally done after some judicsious hollering at the roofing company. If they only communicated it would be sooo much better. It looks awesome! he desck is finsihed and the coping around the pool is installed. Jimmy is supposed to be at the house today to talk about the garden/hole in the concrete portion of the deck. Size, fucntion etc. I think we want to do a water garden in that spot. It would look awesome! Anyway, I do have some pics of the deck being built and some before pics of the roof so those will be coming. I want to have the entire series ready for you at once......

I will probably not post again until after vacation (surprised?!?!?).................see ya!!

Ha, Finally!

Well, yesterday was the first day that we actually had both the roofers AND the landscapers working! Who-ho! Conversation between the roofers and my wife

2 pm Wife "You aren't leaving now are you?"
Logan (roofer) "naw, just have to go and pick up some material that they delivered to the wrong job site."
Wife "OK then, see you later"
end of story, end of Logan, of course he didn't come back!

645am this morning 'doorbell rings, dogs go nuts, cats run helter skelter'
landscaper "could you bring the dogs in we're here to work"

Now which would you have the most faith in? Hmmm??

I PROMISE TO POST SOME PICS SOON (sure the general public says, and the goverments here to help us....................)
