You can never have too much Caulk

image Spend an entire day working on the house and getting it ready for winter.  Caulked all the windows (on the main floor),  and fixed/replaced a broken door in the basement (it’s only been broken since 2006).  Not exciting by any means, but great to have so much work done.

Not a lot to report from today.  My wife stayed home from work today so I didn’t get too much done around the house.  Still a nice change from the “norm” though.  i did some home repairs in the morning, we went out to lunch and then headed to the store to pick up a few things.  Since the store was empty we ended up doing a lot more shopping than expected, but at least we got most of the Christmas shopping already done.

After shopping we headed home and I scrubbed down two of our bathrooms (I know glamorous) and waited for “the boy” to get home from school.

After, the boy got home we had a quick dinner of grilled pork chops and then we headed out to Peterson AFB, where they had a free screening of the movie “UP”.  The movie wasn’t quite what I expected, but it wasn’t bad.

Much Better Day

Well today was a much better day than the last few. Interesting what a simple change in the mundane routine of daily living will do. After taking the boy to the bus stop, I did my daily perusal of the job boards. Though there are a few jobs advertised, I’ve noticed the numbers continuing to drop and the requirements for even the most mundane job go increasingly higher, like needing a Masters Degree to change backup tapes on a server… incredible. After that I decided I was going out for breakfast, and I took my wife to "The Good Egg"… not great, but not too bad. My wife then went to work and I worked on a few things at home until it was time to get the boy from the bus stop. My wife and son went to "Old Chicago" for dinner with friends, while I had to go to a Scout Round Table (Monthly Meeting of Leaders)…I would have rather gone to dinner, but since I now help run the round table for all Cub Scout leaders I had to go. Anyway, it was nice doing something different… I may not be "out of the rut", but today got me closer to the rim.

I am a terrible Blogger

Aie! they will see you!
Photo by Julie70So I just happened to be going through the blog earlier today, and I noticed something. I haven’t said a word on here since mid-June. Since, a blog technically is updated daily, or at least weekly, I am not much of a blogger. I’d say I’ll try to better, but who knows how many times I’ve said that. Well, I will try, but no promises. I guess in the mean time come join me on Facebook or Twitter where I have been accused of posting to many items.
