I'm really hungry for a burger right now. I might have to venture back out and go to Whattaburger or Sonic.

The Moron of the Day Award goes to the guy on the bike that I saw on my way back from Whattaburger. He was wearing headphones and clearly not paying attention, biking on the wrong side of the road (facing traffic) with no helmet. If this wasn't enough, dude was actually controlling his bike with one hand while trying to light the cigarette that was sticking out of his mouth. :twitch: :-o L-)

I suspect he might, at some point in the future, be a nominee for a Darwin Award.

Yum! All this out of a kitchen that is under remodel! You are amazing! :-BD
Yes. The old sink was placed back after the cabinets were installed. Bud had enough material to put over the bare counters and there is electric. I used an electric fry pan for the bacon. It wasn't too difficult. Tomorrow, the new floor will be installed in the kitchen. Monday the counter tops and cook top will be put in. Yippee!!

Biff Henderson on Letterman last night interviewed Coach K... well for all of 8 seconds.
Biff: is it true that to make it fair you are going to have only three starters?

At the end of September New Bern is having its second annual Arts Festival. It should be really nice..indoors, in the convention center, with tons of artists showing their work as well as fun activities. Since Duke is beating Wake that Saturday, I'm not showing my work but I am putting on a couple workshops and a demonstration. They talked about it on the radio today. :D

So, tomorrow is my first day at work at the new place. I have nowhere to live, none of my things are down in Tejas yet and the four other residents of the household have no idea we are moving. Well, they may suspect as I took the last of the car parts for my next project to a 10X20 storage unit last night. I'm going to miss Cincy, both the place and the people.

Since I resigned at the beginning of the month, I haven't gotten much done on my list. I did get the car parts moved, the mulch spread, window screens redone and 2/3s of the deck stained(long story short it kept on raining, which they warn you about on the label). My old place of employment did clean house of a layer of management above me and reorganized all their business units. More chaos to come in the next few months for their employees. They did manage to "reorg" my group three times in the three years I was there, looks like they are working on a fourth one.

Good luck on your first day at the new work place, Ymo! I hope your kitties transition well to their new home.

Bouncies and vibes on your new job.

Welcome to Texas.

We haven't gotten out of Austin much so our view is limited, but we've benefited from our move. Hope you'll be able to say the same--about your move, hoping you get out more than we do.

Yeah, I need to get those removed..lol. I signed an exclusive contract with my new gallery in MHC (Blu Sail) so nobody else is allowed to show them. Fine by me, those 'maters have been hanging for years now and not sold..along with some other paintings that I love. They really do a lousy job of marketing unlike my new gallery.

So do I. Today we had a peach gazpacho soup and a tomato/watermelon/goat cheese salad to get our tomatoes in for the day. We also had a watermelon/blueberry/mint salad that I considered dessert. Yum!
