Nov 2008 update

This is what I figured would happen - forget about your blog then decide to write one cause I'm feeling a little guilty. But who reads this anyway? Maybe there are some people who want to know what's going on in my life but do not come around ...

I'd like to continue a series like I mentioned before. It just seems like time for typing is limited.

My traveling has slowed down a bit. No plans to travel in the near future. Work is ... right now a little frustrating. Family is all doing well.

I have built a chimney onto the house and added a wood stove in the basement to heat my office space. Need to find some wood today as the stash that came with the house when I bought it (fireplace upstairs not really a good source of heat) is running low. Also need to clean up the trim work around the chimney and am looking at rocking the outside. They no longer make the same brick that the house was built with in the early 70's.

Thanksgiving was a holiday ... took vacation day on Friday but ended up working ... should be working now as well ...

Started laying laminate floor in the hallway upstairs. I really messed up - should have run the planks the other way. Then I kept cutting pieces wrong. One thing after another. Kelly went to get more planks yesterday so I told her I would try to lay them today.

Going on the annual three amigos shopping trip today. Three guys going shopping ... this ought to bring some laughs.
