I Got A Nail Gun
Since I got my pride and joy, no not the kids, the compressor. I have been feeling the need for a framing nailer, not just any nailer a porter cable FR350. I love those; Christy says that I’ll just shoot my eye out. However, I struggle with the concept of 200 dollars for a nail […]

Mowing the Lawn
An exercise in agony. I tried to mow the lawn last night, and it dang near put me in an ambulance. Our neighbor had said that she would send her boys over to do it, but I didn’t want them to have to clean up my mess. Between the gate and the vacation it hasn’t […]

What’s So Glorious About Morning Anyway?
I hate morning glory. My lawn is completely infested with that horrible (and tough as nails) weed. Right now it is the only thing in my backyard that is green. I have been told by our gardener at work that I need to hit it once a week with 24-D for the rest of the […]
