		Hi Ron xx This may sound lame but I was so happy for him. He loves his bike and is a little introvert. As soon as he took off he was whooping with joy. I had the camcorder going and you can hear him saying to his dad 'you can let go now'.  Everytime he fell off (mostly when he wanted to come to a stop) he'd just get up and get right back on again. He rode past me and said 'mama I'm a big boy now'. I started crying because of a mixture of realizing how fast he's growing up and being very happy at the same time. Oh crap.. I've turned into such a mom lol.      ronhartsell wrote: Good morning Metalians!!  Ok, NO DYING TODAY!!!!

Monday, Monday
So good to me.. NOT!!
lol

Ok so I'm starting to take these 'mishaps' a wee bit personally now. On a good note, it's not thursday so maybe the 'thursday curse' has passed but last night our washing machine decided to stop working. So with a load full of wet washing we needed to manually drain the machine, hand rinse and do the last bit of washing by hand. Zakk had to go to school with no socks on today because the boy seems to enjoy changing socks multiple times during the day. He goes through a minimum of two pairs and he's a toddler? At least he has good foot hygiene lol.

On a very proud note.. my little angel was finally confident enough to lose the side wheels on his bicycle yesterday. He was so excited that he could ride without falling. He just needs to perfect stopping and starting now lol. Once he's going though he's unstoppable. Now his little sister wants her wheels off but seeing as she's only three I think she'll have to wait a few months first. Amazing how they always want to do what the older one is doing?

Night MG!

Well I'm home from work and I'm pretty sure I'm getting an eye infection damnit! Blimmin sore and red, and I have no chance in hell of seeing my doctor this late in the day. Damnit.

Of course, the tree has to fall in a thicket of poison ivy too. That goes without saying...      Becks wrote:   Blegh, humidity is the killer (so to speak lol) I reckon.

I suppose to answer the question...yes. I'll have multiple cords. However, for a bonfire as I have some 8 more in storage for the fireplaces. Most of the trees on my property are blasted "gumball" trees..."sweetgum," iow. Burns with a ton of smoke and throws off very little heat. Here I have to burn every couple of weeks out of need. I'd be swamped with wood otherwise. Yeah, Becks, it is freakin' HOT!!! 7pm and still nasty hot and humid.      J.D. DIAMOND wrote:   Are ya going to cut it up into a chord?

I am just coming in from chainsawing up a massive tree that just fell over! No storm or anything. Just a monster whose number came up. Almost took me with it as my damn chainsaw konked out at the end and I had the stupidity to try to finish it up by hand. Nope, not in this 100 degree weather. As you have all noted, too many people dropping dead lately...      ronhartsell wrote:   Well now, you ladies be carefull taking out your trash with all them trees blowing over...I think it would kind'a suck to get nailed by one of them buggars as they fell!!!
