Gramva, I totally agree with you. We have been trying to compromise. Hubs will tell me "Do what you want". I then tell him my plans and he talks me right out of it. Darn! Carpeting and animals do not mix. I want to be able to vacuum/clean without feeling something is still in the carpeting. IDK I think anything but carpeting would be a better choice.

OMG! When I first met hubs he could have won the prize for the worlds ugliest couch...for real! We did agree on the house. I drew up the plan and he went from my original ideas.

Who picked it out, SC? Are you one of those men who think they are decorators? I have laminate in all my bedrooms. I love laminate--the easiest floors to care for. And Sd.......there are some out now that are really beautiful. Laminate has gotten better and better since its first appearance in the mid 90s. But if hubs wants carpet, he won't like laminate either.

What is TT having done tomorrow?


Well grams, wifey and I picked it together... we do alot of that... she always gets what she wants!!! :)

I can't remember I know he had a bunch of stuff scheduled this week, like me...but it ain't sleep study that is later on...

Yep----SC has left without telling us about TT also. I think if it was a secret, Salem would not have put it in a post. Maybe it is the sleep apnea test. Hope he gets a good nights rest.

I am going to bed now Sd. You tell your hubby, Gramva said that carpet is an outdated floor covering..it holds dirt, germs, is treated with chemicals which are unhealthy. Tell him you will compromise....hard wood, or laminate ( I would go with laminate just because it is so durable) with a big throw type rug for color and warmth....that way you will get what I wanted.:laugh::laugh:

Good Night....see ya tomorrow.

oh TT. I missed you so much i had to come hunt you down. glad to see you are feeling ok and still dishing out the humor:p

Oohhhh Ty, I've missed you too and I'm sooo flattered you stopped here to see me!:wub:

All of us old folks have been here moaning about our ills and ailments. Its like a competition I think that nobody wants to win.

So how have you been and what's new and exciting in YOUR life?

TT

Decisions, decisions.....hey TT I see you! Hope everything is okay.....any rain?

Still trying to figure out a eliquid/flavoring order. My addd makes me research the heck out of crap before actual purchase.

Goodnight all....must find some bargains.....

I have been DIYing for quite some time now and I still torture myself for days before placing an order lol The worst part is having to pay multiple shipping if I can't get everything that I want from one vendor. That just chaps my hyde!

Oh! wound care.....I love xenaderm and Manuka honey. I use Manuka Honey-New Zealand plus 12 for my teeth/gums. It works well for me.

Tell me about that please! I have so much $ in my teeth and its not getting any better :( Just had a $3,000 bridge put in a few years back since infection ate the bone away BUT they did not check to see that the infection was totally gone and now I am having more issues! I am so ready for dentures. If I did not have a million dollars in crowns already in my mouth I would get them yanked!

Salem I am the same way. I just order some premix for a few folks I convert/and or a secret stash when my taste buds go whacko on me. It would be nice to find everything at one place....and paying priority for a 3-5 dollar flavoring.....is ridiculous...I am too thrifty to pay that.

Who knows maybe we can convince dexter to start into the DIY program!

Salem, so sorry to hear your not feeling well. Hope the large hail ends soon and your illness does as well.

I spent the day at the hospital, seems I have developed cellulitus in my right ankle. I narrowly escaped being admitted at the cost of enduring two huge shots in my magnificent bahonkus. I have to go back tomorrow for what they call Wound Care then I have to go back Wednesday I think... for a procedure where they stick some kind of a deal down my throat to check a valve in my heart that apparently isn't functioning real good.

I don't think these people are too smart because my heart isn't attached to the end of my stomach. I think you can guess what is.

Then I have to go see the cardiologist again by Friday and then also have to pre-register for a sleep study which is stupid because sleeping is something that I do supremely well, in fact, I'm envied by men all over this Country for being able to sleep any where, any time and during any conversation ...unless we're talking about me.

This old age isn't what its cracked up to be.

Anyhow, I'm here and lets get the stories started!!!

TT

There! Is TTs original post. I knew there was something on Wednesday you guys just weren't paying attention :)

Hey gang!

I fell asleep in my recliner when my wife took over MY computer when I went out to the outhouse and she just left me sleep. Now I'll be up until 2 a.m.

My fancy, snazzy electronic rain gauge says we got four tenths of an inch of rain!!! Its not a lot, but its a good start!

Trying to remember what all I need to talk about. Oh, we put down the real hardwood floors and have been happy with that. Its in the main hallway, dining room and kitchen. We had looked at the engineered flooring and some friends had it put in, but my wifey didn't seem to like it as much as the real thing. Probably no difference really, but I don't get involved in all that.

The only thing I know about is the south end of a cow and north bound trains.

Oh yeah ...I was supposed to have that Tee procedure tomorrow but it seems they overbooked and aren't able to do me just yet. So I don't know when I get to enjoy that. Doesn't matter though because tomorrow I'm going up to Washington State. Techno is doing a nekkid rain dance and I want to be there to see ........it rain.

You know as much as I love Kim at OSDIY I do order from ECX when I need just a few things because their shipping is low :( I feel like a total traitor but shipping costs can add up to a whole new order all by themselves!
