Friday, January 23, 2015 - The rain Thursday night and this morning was heavy enough to stop the framers from working today.  It was also very cold and windy. Roy and I headed to Hammond for our follow up cortisone shots in my shoulder and his knee.  We always wait at Dr. Chaisson's office far… Continue reading 01.24.15 Cabinets and counter tops on order…. and our new campfire pit!

09.11.14 So what’s new??

Southeastern and LSU won their games Saturday by huge amounts.  They are both powerhouses in their conferences.  The bad news is that the Saints lost (oh how it hurts to say that word) to the Dirty Birds of Atlanta by a field goal in overtime in their first regular season game.  Our defense was rotten.… Continue reading 09.11.14 So what’s new??

Yesterday was our last full day in Texas.  We've been here almost two months.

We woke up yesterday to a light, light rain and on the news that evening you'd have thought it had really rained a lot.  I don't think it rains very often here so they talk about rain coming a week away, on every evenings news!  This morning we also had some sprinkles for over an… Continue reading 05.08.14 Update from San Diego, TX where it actually rained (a little)!
