    Replacing my well pressure tank today. I figure 48 years is pretty good for one. After taking it out and trying to get the pipe loose, I'm glad the bladder went when it did.

    The bottom flexed so much with just a pipe wrench that I'm sure it wasn't far from totally rusting out.

    I'm taking the opportunity to paint the floor under it. Waiting on the second coat to dry and I'll do a third.

    This is one in a long list of things that needs to be done. My grandparents had this place built as a vacation house and eventual retirement home back in the 70s, so it was bare bones because my grandpa wanted to do the rest himself when he retired. He died at 69 back in '92 before they moved down here. There wasn't even a bathtub. We had to take sponge baths when we "vacationed/working vacation" at the place. Making it a regular residence has been a long road, but it's getting there.

    And, I'm loving every minute of it!

    I'm sorry, must make it hard for her in public in enclosed spaces (ie, elevator). I've known for 35 years bounce dryer sheets, Polo cologne, and patchouli oil is an instant headache. Guess there's a reason I quit wearing perfume so long ago. Just bummed about this, I wore it decades ago and like it, nice and light and cheery, my mother sent kiddo home with a sample bottle. Oh well.

    No disrespect intended here Dennis, but if they tasted bad, she was doing them wrong!

    Whenever the two of us are out and we come across that heavy perfume (or cologne) scent, 99 always says the same!

    "Way too much foo foo!" She also complains that it is giving her a headache.

    I haven't done that but did roll them to make waffle cones. I actually thought about rolling them with some filling inside the other day.

    If they had annis in them, I'd agree with Dennis. I refer to it as anus, because it tastes like chit!

    Just saw that. I just figured on the worst possible time. Like, "when do you expect the neighborhood cats to be amorous?"

    When I finally get to sleep, there's always something that makes me stay awake all night.
