The World in a Nutshell

The world in a nutshell, and good lord I'm the nut..EEEEKS!!! I have had a small taste of being a homeowner of an older home here in the last couple of weeks. Our front yard looks like a grenade blew up in it. We have had to dig up the septic tank for inspection, only to find that the thing hadn't been pumped since the 1980's and that the system probably hadn't been working at full capacity since the mid 80's. What a mess. The only advantage is that Donna and I are going to get to stay in a motel for two nights at no expense. A bad reason for a romantic get away, but timing couldn't be any better with Valentines Day and all coming up.
So I may be the nut but at least there are NO squirrels in sight.
Hope all is well with all of our friends and our family, wherever they may be.
And that includes the extended family we miss and love so dearly.

  1. Well, that sounds like a blessing in disguise. At least you are not the one who has to pump it. I bet that's nasty. Hopefully, they put you in a nice hotel :)
