Well, a mouse made a nest in the coffee pot, and I'm using the last loaf of bread as a doorstop. Guess it's time to dust off the kitchen table. (I did buy a new coffee pot.)

My lack of posting here hasn't because of a lack of interest. I've just come through a long stretch of long days and hard work and by the time we finish supper, I'm not wroth a whole lot of anything. But, there's stuff to talk about, and I always look forward to hearing from friends.

Today, we had family on Ruth's side over for the 4th... a long, but good day with intermittent rain (every time I went out to cook on the grill.) Now, I've finished cleaning up in the ki9tcehn (my gift to Ruth, who is totally shot,) and slipped downstairs to post this while everyone is watching a DVD of Dream Girls. I'ts a good enough movie, but I've seen it, and sitting down to watch a three hour movie after such a long day isn't going to work. I'll be watching the inside of my eyelids after five minutes.

Anyway, I have at least two or three posts in me, but I'm looking forward to hear from all of you. I see that my friend jimmy is back on Mudcat again, and maybe he'll drop by. If we all post a few times, we'll see that ornery old wabbit hunter, Elmer creeping up behind the bushes.

Back later..
