sunday

I've been making a fairy house for my daughter's boyfriends' daughter. She's an adorable little girl.....so smart too.
So I have this area under my side porch ......a space of maybe 3x4 feet.........I thought it would be the perfect place for a fairy house and it's yard. It's fun working on it!
I probably wont show it to her until spring. I can't wait!

I've noticed the past few days that the cyst on my eye is getting smaller. Today you can barely see it. It's been there for about 9 months ..............and now it's going away maybe..

I'm having a new sump pump put in tomorrow. The one I have is the same one that was here when I bought this house 25 years ago. I noticed a few months ago that I wasn't hearing it kick on........I tried to fix it myself but couldn't figure it out.The company that originally installed it is coming to replace it. They seemed surprised that it's been working for all of these years...

When we put the new driveway in 20 or so years ago I buried a time capsule beneath it. The only thing I remember putting in the capsule is a picture of the kids and a little note about our family. I don't know what else is in it. For some reason having them come to replace the sump pump got me to thinking about the time capsule. I hope I never have to replace the driveway, on the other hand I'd like to get at look at what we buried!

The fairy house sounds like a fun project! Wouldn't you just know it that after finally making an appointment to get the eye cyst removed it starts to get smaller on its own. In the past whenever I couldn't stand a toothache any longer I would make an appointment at the dentist. After the appointment had been made the toothache would go away! Is this mind over matter? I don't know but it sure is weird.

25 years sounds pretty good for a sump pump.They don't make quality products like they used to.We have a fridge that's about 30-years-old and still going strong. Never had any problems with it. But we have had to buy 2 new washing machines in the last 15 years. I'm never going to buy another new appliance. New is going to be cheap crap in my opinion. The older it is the better. That goes for you too, Billy!

I like the idea of a time capsule. It sure would be fun to find one someone else had buried many years ago.

It may just be the switch setup on the pump, but even if the whole unit needs to be replaced 25 years of service was pretty good.

I got the assistant on my phone to say something, she said I’m an idiot, that is a challenge, now I have to figure out how to get her to talk to me, but maybe at first I shouldn’t ask her where to go.

"I've been making a fairy house for my daughter's boyfriends' daughter."

For some reason the Palin family just popped into my mind, hahahahaha

I know, Aspen.The old appliances are so much better than the new stuff! The old stuff lives forever it seems!

The sump pump guy didn't make the appointment, Billy. They say he was sick. Oldest son said he'd put in a new pump for me. So I didn't reschedule with the other guy.

I guess the Brady bunch is fiction, Billy!
