    Well, we finally made it to Sherman from Austin last night after four and a half hours of Thanksgiving traveling up I-35 to Highway 75.  At times it was bumper to bumper traffic, and we even managed to find a gas station that had been out of gas for two hours.  As Mal would say… “Now, imagine that!” :)  

    But we all made it safe and sound, and now it is time for giving thanks, family time, games, fun, eating, rest, relaxation, good football and of course, good eatin’! ;)  So from us to you: Happy Thanksgiving!

    In the mean time, if you need something to do, head on over to The Holiday Spot for all sorts of Thanksgiving ideas.

    So Saturday came and I got the itch to go install light switches, outlets, and face plates for the media room and hallway.  Simple task… Read more »

    Things seem to be slowly coming together, what a relief.  This week was one of major progress, thanks to some hired help.  Money well spent! (I think Al would agree too) 

    Last weekend was very full preparing for the texture/paint guys to come in on Monday.  We worked all weekend and had the place completely empty.  I have had my fill for a lifetime in removing wallpaper.  I am also in denial that there is still one bathroom left with wallpaper. 

    Gerardo and his crew started Monday fixing some of the holes we created and some we didn’t.  Yes, the previous owners actually put Read more »
