Today I chose the better part of nothing. I stayed home with my dogs and my footy and enjoyed it immensely. I did some work on East Wind Games, The Daily KRuMB and PubGuys, but not much. I watched 3 football matches. I watched several movies. I played with the dogs in the backyard. I simply had a wonderful do-nothing day and it was magnificent.

When my parents were in last weekend, they delivered to me a wedding anniversary gift. I chose to open it even though my wife was not present, because she won’t be home still for several more weeks. I unwrapped a beautiful Waterford crystal candle holder. As readers of this, you’ll have discovered that candles are a big part of the decoration and everyday enjoyment in our lives. This was a perfect gift.
Cheers.

While walking through a parking lot on Saturday, I ran across this sign. Originally red, white & black, it’s now grey, white & ugly.
This is the rusted bolt that is holding the sign together.

Later in the day, I met Jill & Brett at No Frills Grill where we played trivia for a short while. They then invited me to her mom’s house for a big party. So, I went. Good times.
Cheers.

Difficult, long day! That’s all I gotta say about it.
This is a piece of my wife’s jewelry that I took from one of her many jewelry stands, threw on the bed and took a photo.

It was late, I was tired, this is the photo of the day.
All done.

I have no idea where the month of August went. Somebody stole it!

This is a shot of my roof, looking up from inside, after the old rolled roofing material has all been removed. I had no idea there was so much space between the planks! It’s a good thing there’s absolutely no rain in the forecast for the next five days! It’ll be Wednesday before the new roofing material goes on. But, before the guys left today, they had replaced all the bad planks up there, and all the bad plywood on the lower roof. Yay for contractors and workers who do what they promise in the time stated!

Lunch today with Delaenya, George and Kelly. It was a late lunch at El Sarape, and the lateness of lunch meant our afternoon tea and pie didn’t happen until after 6 p.m. That, in turn meant that my late night movie watching with Sean and Amber was punctuated with a trail mix snack. I should have heated up my lunch leftovers, but it was too cold for me to feel like trotting down the stairs to the fridge. I am seriously looking forward to this little building project that gives me more living space, and should allow for my fridge to be upstairs!! Next year, I’m gonna feel like I’m in a palace!
