Fireplace Glass

The fireplace glass finally arrived the other day and we raced into town on Friday to pick it up. However, when hubby examined it today. . . it was 1/4 inch too wide. So he will have to go down to the shop for a while and modify the insert. Thank goodness he has the tools to do this, or it would have had to go back to the glass store & be cut.

We got up late this morning. Gosh. Slept in until 9AM. The dogs were all too tired to get up, too! I had gotten up briefly with Angus to let her out at 6AM, but she is still having an accident early in the morning before we wake. She probably just has too little of a bladder to make it through the night.

After having waffles & bacon for breakfast (of which we only had little bites - then were stuffed) we fed the remaining portions to the puppies. Dog-grog is what hubby calls it.

A wonderful woodsy walk through the property brought us to the attention of the neighbors behind us who have horses. They are very nice. We talked quite a bit. Then walked again through the woods to return home. The pups had a wonderful time romping & playing.

Hubby made his concoction of all the left-overs for his breakfast burritos. He has gotten stuck in a rut with his burritos for quite a few months now. So instead of his breakfast sandwich in the morning, he just has me warm up a burrito for him.

The auction yesterday was a bust. The trucks went too high. There were no concessions at the auction, and the guys got hungry&thirsty. Chachi did not dress warmly for the inclement weather - he complained a bit.

After resting on the couch for most of Saturday - which is highly unusual for the hubster, he is busily working today. There is a list of about 6 honey-dos he has to complete. But with the clouds & rain still present today, I doubt whether he can get to all the items.


While he occupies himself with those things, I have worked on the house a bit; vacuumed & dusted. Cleaned some windows & mirrors; and tidied up all his mess in the kitchen; done laundry & dishes. Whew. Time for a rest.
