What a night. Baby girls were chasing something tonight .... a baby frog .... despite my squealing and laughing I managed to get it and put him outside. Poor thing, hope he is okay now.

Hey Galahad, didn't know anyone was reading my saga about Grace. Maybe tomorrow I can post more information.

True, lots of folks having health issues lately. Am reading very interesting book about healing back pain, well all pain. It's about the mind -body connection. Older book, with huge positive reviews.

Ok past my bedtime, good night.

Hey y'all, whatcha doing?

Well thought I 'd talk about my projects a bit. Let's see, I finally figured out how to attach the ceiling support. You know the horizontal support. Used 1x2 inside top of window, then attached 1x3 to that. It is at a slight angle so the door skins slide in the gap. Later I will use caulking to seal the remaining gaps. Painted the supports before installing them. Now I have a place to attach curtain rods, etc.

Damn we have a major storm overhead. Heavy rains, lightening, thunder. Sorry, getting distracted ..... gotta go, need warm shirt, am shaking.

I hope you post a photo of Grace someday. I'm trying to imagine the work, but still wonder. Take care of your back. I don't get enough walking in to help mine get stronger. No one here but me to blame so I'd better get up and get moving now.

Hey there everyone. Hope you all are doing fine. I've been away for some time, but regrouped and back in Nebraska. Here one day and have a job. We are ready to plant roots.

So good to see almost everyone here and posting again. Welcome home Lofters. SweetB, thanks for the post on Grace, you have quite a project there. It was much smaller in my imagination. Good luck, it looks fabulous so far.

Evening everyone. Just awoke from a much needed nap, a five hour nap to be precise.
I must have really needed the rest. The big dogs kept vigil the whole time. They were thrilled to finally get outside. Knowing they guard even when nature calls is very calming for me.

How is everyone this evening? Galahad, did you imagine my bus was a VW? It would probably be a easier project because of size, but I planned on living in it full time. Before my heart surgery I thought it was doable. Now I don't know. Leaving here next month, so that will be the acid test. My little pack has increased from two to four. So this will be very interesting traveling with them.

When I have access to a computer again I will post more photos from my adventure.
