Ah, football season. T-bone (formerly known as Corndog) started football. Gave him the whole deliver or recieve concept the other day. He started hitting like he means it. Sometimes...
We have had trouble at times with the night time shuffle of the kids. I had an idea to make an extension of the L-shaped couch to have space for all three kids in a row instead of putting someone on the floor or on a cot. I took the plans over to my dad because he is the woodworking guru. He took the plans and tweeked them to construct a foldable extension for the couch. It works like a charm. Now I need to cover the thing.
School is putting a little structure back into our schedules.
Got our garage doors and front door today. I haven't seen them yet, but the wife says she was moved to tears.--I hope they aren't THAT ugly...

Alright, already...The last night of summer. Tonight we start the whole "stall forever until the parents get loud" routine. When summer starts you always feel like "Wow! Thank God for summer!" After about a month, it's "When the heck does school start?". Tomorrow!
Football has started for Corndog. Peanut is still in gymnastics. Punkin's swim team is on a little break.
The kids spent a lot of time at Grandma Jackie's house over summer. A little time at Grandma Pat's. Just about every lunch was spent at the house or talking to contractors. We have the roof on, windows in, added a door and a couple windows, and the patio poured. The mechanicals are being laid out right now. A couple of the fireplaces are in. The wife got her tub today. Halle-friggin-lujah! Her sannity's saving grace is on it's way to being installed. The kid's tubs are installed already. Security boy and stereo dude are going to get started in the next few days.
We didn't go to the beach as much as we would have liked this summer, but we got a ton done. I suppose the last summer at this resort will have to be chalked up to heavy lifting at the house. We would like to be in the thing by Christmas, but it isn't looking good for that date.
