I lived in a country 800 miles long and i could drive from one end the the other in a day. I moved to Texas and if i drive north i'll still be in Texas at sundown!

Tell me about it man, I go to many a conference down in San Antonio. Texas is a continent in itself.

I live in Rhode Island. You can travel between three cities in a 5 minute period. I know small haha. No jokes now. I can see I just left the door open :p

I know RI. I have relatives in or near Foster Center. It's a pretty state. We use to go to Rocky Point every summer. I grew up in Putnam, CT.

Rocky Point is a shadow of it's former glory, such a sad site to see. I have so many great memories from there, for many of my aunts and uncles it was their first job. I live about 10 minutes from there. Foster eh, Ginny-B Campgrounds close. I do like that area.

I hope you fly.

I once drove to see a friend in Virginia and i don't think i have ever spent so long on the road - i was like Mad Max by the end of it!

Yes, I fly it's on the DoD's dime. I do however have to drive in military convoys and it's infuriating.

I remember when we had the Loma Prieta Quake out here, I couldn't get through to my dad in Putnam or my aunt and uncle in Foster Center to let them know we were okay out here so I decided to call the police depts to see if they would get word to them. My staff said I was bonkers (which isn't far from the truth) and that they wouldn't do that. I told them that yes small towns do stuff like that.

They cracked up when I called the Foster Center dispatcher and they knew exactly who I was talking about and told me that my aunt and uncle were up in Maine at their cabin but that they would let my cousin know. :D The Putnam Police also had no problem contacting my dad. My staff was amazed.

Falling further and further behind it seems. :(

Good afternoon most of you :) Getting coffee'd up and getting ready to head down to the property to remove more tree debris. Haven't been there in a few weeks and I'm starting to go through withdrawals. The construction contract is signed, deposit paid. Bank is processing our request and it looks like we may be officially breaking ground in about a month if all goes well. Truth be known, we have our own back hoe, so we're already moving dirt. I can hardly believe we're this close.

Anyway...time for this burned out chic to get her grubbies on and go break a sweat. I'll continue my catch up when I get back this afternoon/evening. Hope you're all having a great day!

so not Simba then!

That there is my nomination for the most disagreeable post of 2013 and perfectly timed to coincide with my Sunday roast!
But since i am curious, what made the pee?
My parents once moved into a house where they had laid carpet on top of cat.... - but it was a yellow carpet (no wonder) and the walls were orange with lime green stripes.

It was an upstairs bedroom and that whole lot exited through the window.
