What I'm Reading This Week #31

Good morning and welcome to August.  Time is so weird, isn't it.  It's insane we're starting the 8th month of the year but yet if I thought back to where we started the year in snow, that seems like a lifetime ago.  It's been a very long year yet seems to have gone fast - how does that work?  Anyhoo, I hope you're ready to roll for the weekend and the week didn't drop kick you too hard.   Once again our HOA was refusing to do their job and wanted to check the drainage.  This problem is on our subfloor. ..above anyplace for drainage to be an issue with no gutters above it.  Then the woman in power sits on emails all friggin' day and purposely sends things out on her way out the door so another day gets wasted.  Oh the things the Mr and I say about her that I can't say here.  I was shaking so bad Monday night I wanted to go out and rip the damn siding off myself but we worked out instead to try to work off the frustration.  I called o...

  4. I've been to Wall Drug as well. I remember my mother telling me she refused to go there because of all the advertising that she'd see for miles when she was traveling through the state. LOL I have a vague memory of the largest ball of twine or rubber bands, but I can't remember specifics.
