Raining & Pouring

Monday, June 26th, 2006 | Posted in General

Well, more stuff is up with the floors. We got a new fridge and they didn’t put poly far enough back under the old one. All the places they touched up over the weekend are now way too shiney as well.
We learned that BrandsMartUSA’s fridge delivery people don’t hook up the ice-maker if any [...]

Go with the flow is the phrase for the weekend. It’s time for the men’s retreat at Grace Fellowship. Last year was the first one and we had a relaxing time with about 20 guys packed into a lake house. This year I think there are 40 guys signed up so the dynamic is definately [...]

Bellsouth is getting close to a “sucks” blog. They supposedly hooked up the phone last week when the floor was being installed. It wasn’t working yesterday so I called for them to come out today. No one called my cell and the phone still doesn’t work so I called them up. Here is a summary [...]

I also found the following from [...]

In Memory of Abbey Ennis

We put Abbey down this morning. Now she can be buried at the home where she learned to be loved by a family that would return all love she had to give. She was a good dog.
(Trying to mourn in all the busyness.)

A Dog Returns To Its Vomit

Well, all the flooring is ordered and set for installation. We went with hardwoods in the kitchen — no offense tile folks. We are finishing up the painting today and tomorrow.
Please pray for our dog Abbey. She is 12-14 years old and hasn’t kept any food down for about a week and a half now. [...]
