Now today I got it all out and sanded it. More worried about earlier thunderstorms and now it's the pretty paint. I set it up to take directly inside on racks. And it did already come thundering through here a while back and still thundering. It's about time to fire up the grille.

We've got nothing but dirt and some very tough trees here that manage to survive. My wife wants to grow vegetables. Yeah right. They won't grow here. I put some fake plants out at the end of the driveway. They look real. We'll see how long they last in this climate. I'd take a picture but it's just too dang hot outside.

Paid bills today. Ugh! My electric bill was $287 and I wasn't even here for 2 weeks and I still get my 25% employee discount. I can't imagine what it would have been. i guess I'll find out next month because I'm back and the air is running.

My wife bought a bucket of KFC chicken...42 bucks.
