Puppies! Oh, I hope you get your happy pup.
DS23 and his GF are here... having a happy time dashing in and out of thunderstorms. DD27's flight was delayed 3 hours but she got home all in one piece. It was restorative to have both of them nearby... even though at one point I JUST NEEDED A NAP.
Off to a bit of knitting and then early to bed.

I'm going to grout a log cabin today. Doesn't that sound soooo lumberjack? I'll be needing a nap soon.

I didn't know log cabins needed grouting. Is that daub and wattle?

The puppo is adorable but Wabbo's comment is ironico as I have often thought/said/complained that those doggos eyes are not visible. Black on black and all.

There is a potential good thing in the air here. I just interviewed for a job accidentally. I wantitwantitwantit.

My boss is a ______. Please supply words that mean control-freak. This morning, I'm not working in that office but I called and asked the new girl to email me something off my computer. She said the boss told her not to turn my computer on as it may have a virus. No explanation. No prognosis. No plan to get rid of the virus. She simply thwarts every single thing that is not her own idea.

Your boss is a control freak. Is that good enough? I think that just about describes it.

Your boss is a controlling beeyotch.

I agree with you Wabbit, Diva is perfect. I doubt I can get her, but I wouldn't mind at all.

Re: grouting -- nope, Painty, this is daub and wattle. Our friends' have built a home from a log cabin kit, and these logs are very regularly shaped, squared off on top and bottom so that they can be stacked. But in order to really last and have good insulating value, you grout between each and every log. We had 4 of us doing it and we spent pretty much all day and we got done exactly half of one wall. Really tedious stuff. More fun with a group, definitely. I don't envy them having to do the rest of it.

Daub and wattle looks a little drafty for the far northland.

Me either. I am booooooooooooooring as heck today. DH took off to go shopping for a used plow and to go boat shopping with a friend. The boats they're looking at are for the friend, so I don't expect he'll come with one, but it will be amusing if he buys a plow and has to bring it home on the front of the truck--in the middle of summer. People will think he's lost his mind. Then he's going sailing for the weekend, so DD and I are home alone.

Oh carp. We just caught a mouse. Durn thing has been scurrying around in the ceiling over the living room for 2 or 3 days, so DH finally set a trap on a shelf right under the ceiling. Figures the would wait until he went away for 4 days before getting itself smacked flat. Now I'll have to deal with it. DH usually removes dead mice from the traps and disposes of them -- I think I will just be disposing of the whole trap. Dumb things. I can't believe they want to live inside our house in the summertime. Makes no sense; if I were a mouse I would be very happy to move outdoors in this weather. Later when it gets cold, I can understand their wanting in.

Well, have a love rest-of-the-day, Wab. Ta

tick-tock tick-tock. 45 minutes to go. I need a vacation. I want a week at the beach vacation like Kiwi's.

I'd be tossing the trap, too, Kiwi. Mice are my big phobia.
