First of all, how is it that someone who works in "mental health" can get by workin' for only 27 years and be able to retire at age 47??? Somethin' fishy here...

But nevermind that question...

Ummmm, another long hot summer of watering gardens to keep the drought at bay... Now we've had a little rain and some breathin' room but tryin' to get a house I'm buildin' under roof and buttoned up on the outside so we can finish the interior this winter...

...but, alas... We're headin' down to the mountains of wsetern North Carolina fir a week next week... Not exactly a danged vacation 'cause we're going down to help the P-Vine's sister get ready for a surprise birthday party for a daughter but, hey, it ain't go nuthin' to do with either a hose or a hammer, so we'll take it...

Maybe next year we'll do the traditional vacation... but that what I say every year 'bout this time...
