What I'm Reading This Week #30
Happy Final Friday of July everyone! I will not be sad to see this month in the rear view. The Mr finished the HOA minion's job by checking on the basement wall crevasse of missing mortar pretty much every waking hour after he "filled" the hole. I gave him a bamboo skewer to see if it hit the long bottom we saw with the camera. Nope. source When he poked it, it drained away. Every hour, he'd do the same and it kept emptying. I had him check to make sure it wasn't pouring out the front of the house and thankfully it wasn't. But if you figure that water has been etching away at the stairstep crack leading from the top of the hole then that goes down the entire length of the wall , so it had a long way to travel. In the end not only did the Mr use one quart of the filler but had to buy another one and used 1/3 of the bottle before it finally started leveling off!! If we'd left it to the HOA dude, an eighth of the bottle woul...
Beanie weenies and hoping to stay up until midnight LOL I will be going to Chicago myself on the 11th for a girls weekend. We will be staying at the Essex which constantly reminds me of the Hotel Coral Essex and we will be getting the all city pass to go to the Field museum and the Shedd aquarium. Its going to be a great time.

ReplyDeleteGoing to a new years eve party at a friends house. We are driving up in an RV with another frien d who let's us have his big bed in the back. Then we will come home Tuesday and relax before our life gets back to the grind on Wednesday. Probably walk our doggie because she will be mad we weren't home tonight!
ReplyDeleteFeel better and let's rock 2013!
Sorry you're not feeling well. Thats a bummer but I'm sure you'll have a good night anyway. Sometimes its just nice to sit and chill. I'm trying to decide if I want to go to my friends bon-fire tonight. (Is that one word or two?) Anyway, it'll be cold but probably pretty fun.
ReplyDeleteIt was quite a year. Hard to believe we're at the end of yet another one already. We may not be ringing in 2013 as awesomely as we did 2012 but 2013 is still going to be an awesome year for us, I can feel it!
ReplyDeleteSorry you guys are both sick. That's crummy, but you're together and that's what really matters. We don't have plans yet, but I guess we'll do something. I'd rather stay in and watch movies and then watch the ball drop and go to bed. Hubby says "but that's what we did last year". Yeah, I know and that's what I want to do again. My folks have the little guy for a visit though so no babysitting excuses and he really wants to go out so I'll have to go with him.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever read SUAR's blog? (Shut Up And Run) She had a hip fracture a couple years ago and had to take to the pool for swimming and pool running until she healed. I know it's not ideal, but I would recommend the pool as an option if your doc says it wouldn't impede your foot healing. I hope it improves soon. Happy New Year to you and The Mr.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are both feeling better soon! I'm doing round-up posts this week too. There's no shame in that. ;) I'm sure you'll be able to go to Chicago soon enough and I bet you will be glad you waited until your foot was better to go!
