This item is for trivial stuff, things I did to do around my house or your house. Like pick up an umbrella for the table out by the pool, or get laundry detergent.

I need an umbrella for the big plastic table by the pool. I need to pick up the little fridge from Cedar Creek to put out by the pool this summer.

Not stuff like having the house fumigated for termite? That's my next project and I cannot accomplish it till the house male takes down my trap dipole so they can tent the place.

I'm also going to need the table saw to make a rack for all those computes I've been setting up in the machine room/library at Quail.

My entire life has been spent with men having table saws. I thought it came along with your birth certificate like a pair of ears, fingers and toes, etc.

Want us to cheer you on? Encourage you? Keep you company while you do it?
Fix you lunch? Help?

That can be tedious if you have to accept excuses rather than bank drafts...

It was mostly excuses today. So maybe tomorrow will be a better day.

Or maybe tomorrow. The Quail house is doing well, the Cedar house is tough!

I'll catch flack for saying this, but I'll bet women are giving you the most trouble.

..'twould be better if it were none at all, but... I am happy you are not being emotionally victimized by women. Beware, they are very good at it if you let them. I had two older sisters who were Past Masters...

I need to look up how to set a videotape on continuous play in my Sanyo manual, I know how to do this on my JVC. I wanted to play that Kileua tape today. I'll play it but it's still 8 am here.

Will we be able to access it? So far, other than your hill country trip, I have not been able to see anything on SpringCam. Will keep watch for it - or boot the w.3.1 so I can see it on the primitive 4 color (I kid you not!) lCD screen.

chores... besides the mundane wash, dry, clean, vacuum, etc.
Paint the dining room (yellow)
Tile the kitchen (something other than the gawdawful linoleum that's there)
Replace tiles in the laundry room
Hang border on wall in basement playroom
Put in new garbage disposal (enlist help of friend Cheryl for this!)
Make curtains for aforementioned basement playroom
blah, blah, blah... I'm considering just setting up the tent in the backyard and calling it good!

Looking for a cartoony bug border. Vibrant colors... fun... NOT a white background. I may end up stenciling like I did in the kids' room.
I did paint the dining room (while Brandon was on a business trip! *wink*) but my list above still stands (with a few more additions even!) *sigh*
