"You wouldn't be so a round if you would diet and exercise."


* * * * *


Mario, I don't think that is what Zee meant.

Mario: "You'd be less a round too if you'd leave the cats alone."

Alright, Italian, those are fighting words.

thanks Dave.. I needed that


maaaaaaaaaaa-ree-o

(((sis)))) kinda figured life got in the way.. I should be available this weekend or next weekend or the next..

As I have no life

I get short bursts of energy and I do a bunch of stuff, then I end up wiped out and hurting for days. Really hating this weather here right now. It's warm, cold, warm, snowing, etc.. I'm ready for spring..

Boo !!!

hey karma happy new year!

Oh, look! Zee escaped from the cats again.

really?? you have no life?
no worries.. you know I don't have one either..
glad we had a chance to catch up.. ..

hey..we were snowed under this weekend.. mind you.. not as bad as our BC pals.. they got buried in over 30" of the white stuff, we only had about 18".. poor buggers.. most of'em don't even own snow tires! they're not tough like us Easterners.. we're used to shoveling it high..

got a big weekend planned with family but I'll try reaching out..
miss you bunches (((((sis))))

barely.. I'm dressing my wounds as we speak!

there's those darned crickets again....

chrip.. chrip

If the owner of this establishment would show up more often ... Oh, forget it.

I try Dave.. but life doesn't always permit.. I'm at my desk working for 10 to 12 hrs a day, 4 days a week.. plus still attacking my renos (that's on day 5) did I mention I have a BIG house?? day 6 is housework.. you know.. dusting, vacuuming, dishes etc.. and day 7 is running around doing errands & groceries(plus the laundry).. doesn't leave much time for play.. YET!

but ONE day.. all this'll be done (reno's I mean lol) with only 1 day a week.. it's kinda hard to move forward quickly.. I'm currently laying hardwood and tiles on the hall floor.. 22' in length x 3.5' in width.. it's a bit of a challenge as I've got wood going in different directions, and floor & wall ducts to cut around.. guess you could say it's a "puzzling" challenge! anywho.. there's a lil over 1/3 done.. jigsaw anyone??

laying the hardwood flooring in the living room has a different challenge.. getting all the big furniture out (the challenge is WHERE to put it all ) so I can install another 'imagined' design.. and for some reason I can never seem to dream up "normal'n simple"

anywho.. got a few things left to do before crawling into that big comfy bed.. tammarra's anudder early day

sis.. I'll try hitting you up at the new # this weekend.. luvs ya

((((((sis))))))) I HATE YER NEW PHONE!

but I still loves you

let me know when you've figured out whats wrong with it.. AND fixed it.. so's we can have a real conversation..

been a long week.. phew..

hope everyone's doin good!!
me? yup.. sadly.. still alive

Look who crawled out of the woodwork.

Hi, Zee!

Hi Dave


how did YOU know I was workin on my hardwood floor again this weekend?

I recalled you mentioning a remodeling project.

yup.. the whole dang house is a remodeling project

just so happens this past weekend (plus the 3 prior to) I've been working on the latest 'project'.. a jigsaw puzzle actually.. of my hall floor.. I've created a kind of ladder, if you will, intermixing the hardwood and ceramic tiles.. however I'm ALmost done.. only have the tiles to lay in and fill the 3/4" gap all the way down one side.. so lots of cutting left to do for the strips to fit just right..

me'n ma big imagination.. and my "I can do anything I put my mind to" attitude.. can kinda put myself into challenging situations at times.. and this is definitely one o'them times

so.. Mod is it?? congrats Dave!
