Anything Look Different?!!

Hello, again. Just got back from visiting Grandpa and Grandma Singleton. They are doing okay. They decided to switch from Dish to Directv. They were waiting for the technician to come and hook them up when we left. Called when we got home and the tech had just finished connecting up the equipment and was showing them the remote operation.
We arrived home safe and sound. Traffic was the best it has been in quite awhile. Add to that a Cubs victory over the Pale Hose and the day was a complete success!! On top of all that, a friend came over while we were gone and removed more of the bushes and even a tree that was next to the garage. What a blessing! Sending the pictures of the progress. Now to rest and get ready for the Lord's day. Have a great weekend.

Getting to the Root of the Problem!

Howdy this hot, humid June afternoon. Seems like summer already, but I'll take the hot as opposed to the cold this day. We have decided to clean up the yard. When we moved in, there were any number of different plants, bushes, weeds, and nuisance trees dotting the landscape. Not a pretty sight! Well, we are not landscapers at all, but we are going to give it a go. We have some tomato plants growing and have planted a couple of trees next to the street in front. Next we began removing some of the annoying bushes and trees and have pulled about six so far. Good start. Just have to keep at it a little at a time. We have friends willing to help and that will be just fine. Leave you with some shots of the work. Enjoy!

Give'em an in, they'll take a yard!

Decided to start cleaning out the bushes and trees, as I mentioned last time. So, here we go! Enjoy.

'Dog days' of summer; almost!

Greetings, again! Trying to get used to Logan not being here for a month! (Oh, yeah, miss his Mom, too.........Love Ya, Rae! :-) ). Wrigley is in the mood as well. He still has food from yesterday! He will be fine in a day or so. I'm still home from the crud. Got drugs and am recovering slowly (One of the bennies of getting older). Should be able to go to work Thursday. Worked outside for a bit yesterday. Borrowed a power washer from the neighbor to see how it would work on the garage. After I get and apply some stripper, the washer should power the paint off great. Just have to do some sanding and caulking and let 'er dry. Then I should be ready to spray paint the thing. Should be done by 2015!!!!! I can hear the kids now......'That soon!' Mom (Nana) is still progressing great. She starts back to work half-days next Monday. Sooner if Dad doesn't go to work and get out of her hair!!!!!!!!!!!!! We will leave you with Wrigley's assessment of the situation. Put a bubble over his head and read 'When Ya commin' home and rescue me, Mom?!!!! Take care.

Grandpa & Grandma back from Fla.

Greetings this rainy Monday. Hm-m-m-m.......Rainy Days & Mondays always get me down! Wonder if that could be a song? :-)
Well, Grandpa and Grandma have made it back from Florida. They stop in Tenn. to visit a Navy buddy of Dad's. He is pretty bad shape, but still hanging in there. After a short visit they head out and usually get home in another day. Dad just can't let the grass grow under him when he is on the road. Here is a pic of the four of us from our recent visit. Enjoy.
