Death

Had a death in the family this morning.

My wifes uncle.

He was in bad health condition. Even so my wife took it bad.

We will see what happens.

Pond part 2

Got the new liner. Oh-boy

The Old pond liner was about 50 gallons. Went down to Lowes and picked up the smallest one they had in stock. The new one is 165 Gallons.

That should make the wife and the fish happy. The fish that will be going into it are currently residing in one of my 75 tanks in the house.

Of coarse this means that I will be doing a lot more digging. 175 Gallons may not seem like much, but boy is the hole you have to dig sure is big.

This may be more than one day. I am finding some rocks in the ground and they are slowing me down some.

Fish Pond

This weekend I am going to be buying a new pond liner.

It is a preformed liner. They are easy to put in. When I moved into my house they already had a liner installed, but it was empty. I cleaned the pond out, only to find that it had a hole in it.

Guess I will be doing a little digging Saturday to get the new one to fit. The last on failed because the hole was not prepared correctly.

Brother Update

Thought I should provide an update.

Brother spent 4 days with us. Glad to see him. It had been about 4 years since I had the pleasure. Hope that it won’t be so long the next time, especially since his beautiful wife is pregnant and we ALL will want a chance to see the kid.

After he left us they went down to Charleston, SC to my in-laws. They spent about 5 days with his folks and 2 of his sisters. After that they were heading over to Tennessee to see her grandmother. Then it is back home to California.

With both of us in the Navy, our timing did not always work out. Either he was deployed or I was deployed. That’s what happens when a Sailor marries into a Navy family. My wife, her father, older sister and younger brother all in the Navy. At least we all have a common history.

Of course, it also did not help that he is stationed on the west coast and I was stationed on the east coast. The miles always did create a problem.

I'm back

Sorry for being off for so long.

The cold I was fighting for so long decided to conduct a counter offensive. Have not been that bad in years. First time in twelve years, I had to take 2 days off from work.

You understand that when you don't feel good, you do not have alot to say. Atleast nothing good to say. Afraid if I had felt like writing I probaly would have spewed the worst of thoughts.

Do not worry, cause the rock is now rolling.

I'm Back

Dear Tide

Dear Tide:

I'm writing to say what an excellent product you have! I've used it all through my married life, as my Mom always told me it was the best.

Since I am now in my fifties, I find it even better! In fact, about a month ago, I spilled some red wine on my new white blouse. My inconsiderate and uncaring husband started to berate me about how clumsy I was.

One thing led to another and somehow I ended up with a lot of blood on my white blouse. I tried to get the stain out using a bargain detergent, but it just wouldn't come out. After a quick trip to the supermarket, I purchased a bottle of liquid Tide with bleach alternative, and to my surprise and satisfaction, all of the stains came out!

In fact, the stains came out so well the detectives who came by yesterday told me that the DNA tests on my blouse were negative and then my attorney called and said that I would no longer be considered a suspect in the disappearance of my husband.

What a relief! Going through menopause is bad enough without being a murder suspect! I thank you, once again, for having such a great product.

Well, gotta go. I have to write a letter to the Hefty bag people.
