Back...

Well my summer is almost over - working today, then off for one more day, and then back for the long haul to Christmas...

Had a great break - almost totally forgot what I do at work,which is always a good sign.

Got in lots of great family time,played the guitar lots, painted lots of toy soldiers, made some new scemery for them to fight over and even found a new use for old g-strings...

Um, maybe I should explain that last one - I found that bits of old guitar strings can be used to make new spears for toy soldiers if the old ones have broken off.  The G string is the best one for this job.

Work on the kitchen has slowed down - the new units are in place, the tiles are up, but we still have a pitted concrete floor and bare plaster walls and ceiling.

The hole from the kitchen into the toilet has been fixed, but here is a pic as proof that it really happened...


Well, it is good to be back - I will be playing catchup as soon as possible - can't wait to see what you have all been up to for the last month!

I was really wondering why you had an abundance of old g-strings! Good thing you explained! You had me worried for a moment there!

I'm glad you're coming back. You've been missed!

Shadowthorne - A scone? You think that because I am English I eat scones? Yep, I had one yesterday!

Technobabe - Thanks, it was a great break.

Terri - Of course I am coming back! You don't get rid of me that easily!
