Was it good for you?


Halloween fun is over and everyone will get back to normal.

Being anyone you want for a day can be enlightening for some and awkward for others. 

I worked on the bathroom all night and played carpenter, electrician, and general contractor as I was dressed in my sweat pants and tee shirt.  There were only a few kids to come by our house this year partly I think from the cold weather last night and also that I did not light up the house well for people to know we were home since I was in the rear part of the house.

I did eat a ton of chocolate candy I had gotten a big bag at Costco which included Snickers, Three Musketeers, Butterfingers, Baby Ruth, Twix, and Milky Way mini candy bars.

After much work I sat and ate candy and this is what I felt like after a night of heavenly Mars . . .




I tried to sleep in this morning for that extra hour with the clock roll back but I could not sleep so as I went outside to get the morning paper this is what happened again . . .




I felt better the rest of the day and I can say the pocket door framing is in now as well as the soffit above the shower for lighting.  I continued my framing for the shower door area and the can lights which are in now as well as the rain shower spray head.

A couple trips to Lowe’s for cement board and confirmation of the shower door size to be bought later gives me more information for this weeks work after I get home from work.

I hope everyone had a nice time and saw the beautiful full moon last night.  Today we had the sun setting to the west as the full moon was rising over the mountains to the east.  It was quite a sight and only happens a couple times a year for the timing to be just right.

Morrison Springs - Ponce de Leon, Florida

Morrison Springs Ponce de Leon, Florida County road 181 Morrison Springs was one of our favorite dive spots on many of our Florida trips but it also had the most danger to it.  One of Northwest Florida’s best-kept secrets was known to more Georgia and Alabama folks than Floridians.  And they weren’t talking.  It had to do with the jewel of a Panhandle spring, a turquoise pool surrounded by stately cypress trees whose aerial roots stand taller than a man. Below the surface, clear, 68-degree water wells up from a spring cave source over 90 feet deep. Morrison Springs is just far enough off the beaten path in this sunny pine and cypress country to be special for any diver lucky enough to find and dive the site. The shallow pool reflects the overhead blue sky and if the water is clear and the bottom clean of silt, it resembles a giant sapphire.  Unlike some springs with a deep, black hole source, this one takes visitors gradually into its shallows from a golden-sand beach.

Are Showing Your Nipples Appropriate Work Attire?

Let me first say that personally, I have no problem with it at all. This has been kind of a weird week here in the north land with the first of many winter snowfalls’s to come and the landscape once again beautifully covered in the white stuff. It looks like the kids will have to put their Halloween costume on over a snowsuit again this year as the cold snowy stuff is here again. That is not what I wanted to write about tonight but was necessary to set up what I did want to write about. “Frosty nipples” are quite common here during most of the year and when things cool down on the cusp of winter probably more so. Work attire with tight shirts or low cut blouses that ‘make a statement’ during colder weather could be taken several ways by co-workers or visitors to your place of business. While you may not always be taken seriously by others in the office and some may have trouble looking you in the face, I say it's a freedom of rights issue. If you want to show o

Biscuits and Whores

Some of the best things about life I learned from Lonesome Dove. Great movie, excellent characters, and tells a story about how to live life. Augustus McCrae “It ain’t dying I’m talking about, it’s living.   I doubt it matters where you die, but it matters where you live.” I'm just tryin' to keep everything in balance, Woodrow. You do more work than you got to, so it's my obligation to do less. “Yesterday’s gone and we can’t get it back.” “I'm sure partial to the evening,' Augustus said. 'The evening and the morning.   If we just didn't have to have the rest of the dern day I'd be a lot happier.” Hat Creek Cattle Company Well we don't rent pigs and I figure it's better to say it right out front because a man that does like to rent pigs is . . . he's hard to stop. Biscuits “I never knew you to get excited about anything except biscuits maybe . . . and whores!”    Captain Woodrow Call to Augustus McCrae in Lonesome Dove. Whores L
