I get tired just reading your emails Snag. It's been a long time
since I built anything but the raised beds in the backyard.

We've gone two days without rain but the forecast says more tomorrow
and the rest of the week. I hope it's not another deluge.

It's probably not going to happen but I hope the rain here holds
off for a few more days . If I can get the trusses up and set and
get the roof decking on I'll be a happy camper . The last rain we
got was like an inch in under an hour , had water coming into the
living room thru the opening I made in the SW wall - most of that
wall comes out , she likes "open concept" . --

Mine likes a lot of space so she can "store" (read that as "hoard")
all of her stuff. There's not an empty space in the house except in
the bathrooms and I had to insist on not storing things in those
spaces. I figure once I'm gone the children will find her crushed
under her hoard one day. I still love her, come December, if I make
it, we will be married 56 years and we dated two years before the
marriage. We're really used to each other.

Mine's not a hoarder , her mother is ... August will be 43 years for us . I
kinda like having her around .

I feel the same way for mine, even the dawg loves her. G Heck, we have
two children, now in their early fifties; five grandchildren, the eldest
in their early thirties (daughter started a family at 18); six great
grandchildren, one of whom will be seventeen this year (female). We love
them all and moved to Houston area from Louisiana to be closer to them.
One helluva crowd when all our get, their spousal units, and children
all get together. There's no such thing as a whisper in this crowd, it's
a roaring good party. When your youngest great granddaughter, every bit
of going on four, whispers "I love you Granpa," you feel really good for
a few days. And we have three grandkids that haven't married as yet.

My folks were married 44 years before Dad passed, her folks a bit over
50 years before her Dad passed. Her mother lived to almost 101 years, I
tell my wife to keep an eye on the money as she might outlive it. G

Life is very good for us.
