random
Here are some random (and I’m not kidding when I say random) photos from the few days it’s been since I blogged. (sorry, no fun stories this time)
David got a few things done around the house. He fixed the trash can. It’s one of those with a pedal, and the pedal hasn’t been lifting the lid. It’s been like this for a month or so, and I was STILL stepping on that pedal. He finally fixed it for me and it works like a dream. Yeah, coat hangers and electrical tape:
He also mowed. It was time:
We’re trying to teach Jake to fetch (consistently). He’s got the idea – we throw, he retrieves – but he gets tired of it after two throws. On the third, he settles down to chew whatever it is we’ve thrown:
We went to Elayne’s second wedding (to the same guy). They were married quickly and rather privately in March because his visa was expiring and he didn’t want to leave her to go back to Colombia. They had their [already planned] and big wedding this past weekend. Elayne and her dad:
On the way home, the clouds were crazy interesting:
And… the ongoing saga of the bathrooms. So, here’s what the paint looked like when we moved in (it’s HORRIBLE):
And here’s David mixing paint just before we painted the room a solid, non-barf-inducing color:
For the record, the trash can fix only used electrical tape. The coat hangar was an interesting but ultimately dumb idea of mine. :)
Live and learn, huh? You have to try ideas, and sometimes they work. My comments – (1) Your yard looked like ours did this AM before Dad A. did his mowing thing. Like father, like son? (2) We had that kind of pedal dilemma about 20 years ago, & Dad’s answer was to just leave the lid off. :) (3) Elayne was a beautiful bride! (4) Jake is such a sweetie – maybe a slow learner, but a sweetie (most of the time!). He’ll get it eventually. P. S. Dave – ck. hangar/hanger. Love you both!
I was jsut teazing about the speling thing. It happns to the bst of us. Sorry.
