I am so excited, I actually got to watch a new episode of 'Bones'. Normally, I am either at a Bible study or at church when my favorite shows are on.
It was a good episode, too. I'm not going to talk about it in case you DVR'd it and haven't seen it yet, but I am tempted to.
What shows are your favorites?
Family Time

What started out with Steve II asking if we wanted to get together to grill, ended up with us inviting the other kids to come also.
Heather said she and Josh were just talking Saturday about maybe the family should get together for chili. That didn't go any further and she was in the mood for chili. Josh said Shelley had chili on the stove. Well so much for that.
I didn't need software security solutions to figure it out. Those two kids and families would not be coming out. Abby said they'd be out so it was Abby and family, and Steve and Amber for grilling. Awesome.
Now it would have been nicer with the whole family, but it was still fun seeing them. When Steve, Amber and Vito, of course, were leaving Aiden was yelling, "Bye Beto!" It was so cute. He just kept saying it over and over. Loved it!

Steve and His Bible Study

I don't know what is wrong with me, since our 'The Story' Bible study ended, I just haven't felt like going to the Bible Study. I forced myself to go to all but one of the next study. Now he's doing a third study and I just can't get into it.
I wish we had a study I looked forward to. The other thing is the study at my son's house only has one more week to go. I think even Amber felt sad when I told Steve and her that we only had one week left.
I am in a women's study on Wednesday nights at the church, but am not really thrilled about it, either. What is going on with me, am I just going through a slump? Guess I'd better get with the Lord and see what's going on.

Steve Was Working on the Roof

Since we had the storm come through and we had rain come into our attic and caused problems. If you've read my blog, you'll know what I'm talking about.
Today, Steve took the last of the three vents off the roof and reroofed those three areas. And if that wasn't enough work, he mowed the yard. He is a hard worker, that's for sure.
Now that we have the sidewalk, patio, and roof done, we are still playing with the idea of looking at another house. While we won't need a louisville real estate, we may need to contact one here locally.
If we did move, I have no idea how we'd move that beautiful table that stands on the new patio. That would be a bummer if we had to leave it behind.

Linda's Back

A week ago yesterday, Linda was in Colorado on vacation. Luckily she wasn't in the flooding area. Amber gave me my shots (I'm pretty lucky that she's a CMA) so I'm not behind on them.
Last night Linda brought me a postcard with a cute bear on it and a candy cane from Hammond's Candies. It is the flavor of caramel apple! She knows I buy that flavor suckers to help me not smoke in the car.
We watched the new episodes of 'Crazy Ones', the new 'Michael J. Fox Show', and 'Elementary' and then she showed me the pictures she took while on vacation. It was a great night.

The Damage From the Storm

Two minutes before the storm hit, I was outside smoking my one-third cigarette. It started raining lightly and the wind started blowing harder. I came inside inside just in time.
The wind started increasing and the rain really started coming down. I found out afterwards the wind got up to 60 and 70 miles per hour. Wow! I'm glad I came in when I did. We didn't realize the damage until the next morning.
Our satellite dish had been hit by a large limb and it curled the edge inward. We no longer had internet. I didn't realize how much I used it until I no longer had it. There were limbs and branches all over the yard. The other damage that occurred was the fencing in front of the door to the building we used for storage. The left side was torn down. That's sad.
I'm thinking we need to buy a new large-screen TV and a stand with mount so we would no longer have this huge piece of furniture just to hold our TV.
Now, I don't watch TV that much, normally, I watch DVDs. No commercials, that way! But, I really wished we could have DVR because then I could have shows like 'Bones', 'Chicago Fire', and 'Revelation' recorded because I'm usually at Bible studies when they are on. Plus, you could flip through the commercials. Neat, huh?

Night of the Storm

I was home alone when then electricity went off. Luckily it happened when it was still pretty light out. I lit a few candles in the living room and kitchen. Then I called MidAmerican to report an outage.
I didn't worry at all until I felt wetness on the kitchen floor. Then I noticed water on the stove and counter. And then I saw water dripping from the light fixture. Well, great! The next step was to call Steve. I knew he would be upset. Because that means we have rain coming in the vent on the roof.
Steve, his brother, and our two boys reshingled our roof. At that time, they put two vents in the roof to help with moisture that builds up in the attic....I think.
The problem with that is when it rains and the wind blows in a certain direction, it blows rain in the vents. Great! I called Steve and he immediately turned around to come back home to deal with it.
