Very nice workshop Gary O.
I really like the double doors you built. We will be adding them when we finish the front of our cabin.
Hubby has the dream of a workshop and we will build one when we're done with everything else,lol.
PS-I hope DH doesn't mind sharing his workshop with me.

LOL!! Oh to only be half of that list. This fat ol' cupcake is doing swell.
I've been so busy voting that I haven't compiled my Christmas list yet. I'll get back with you on that. I'm sitting in a tree stand right now with my daughter.
This is my official salute to Steve Jobs for the wonderful iPhone.
Peace and hippy love,
Salty

Today I troll for stripers in the Rappahannock River!! Outriggers with buck tails. Two deep drop umbrella rigs and two long lines with divers.
Work hard, play hard.
Meanwhile, my shop sucks!!

snow snow snow.the white stuff is coming down fast and furious and wont stop.already shoveled out to the pump house three times to keep the route to the water supply available.nope.not gonna happen.
i told the mister...we need a snow blower cause my back has had it.
i think we are gonna have a white xmas cause its just dumping on us as fast as can be.
worried about Julie2Oregon.wondering if she is warm.wondering what she is thinking of all the snow.
the plow guys didnt come plow us out.not till this afternoon.
so one of the neighbors did but i bet the roads are just as deep now as they were a couple of hours ago.
got my soup pot going.
staying in till the mister gets us a snow blower.
beautiful

thank u hattie.we are comfy.
Julie2Oregon is great.her stove is working and her wood dry.i was praying for her.shes good.
we battled the snow and won.the trail i shoveled three times today is not too filled with snow.we got like 17-19 inches.
i think i lured myself into thinking we would have a mild winter.whee.that was wrong.
today i made snow ice cream.oh my.it was sooo good.
i made a mixture of cocoa powder ,sugar and milk in a pan and cooked a bit to get the cocoa lumps out of the mix.then added vanilla.then put the pot in the snow to cool down.then i went and got our bowls of snow and poured the cocoa mixture over the snow and mixed it all in.
if u let it melt a tiny while.it becomes creamy.i have to tell u.it was really really good.

Yes, it was really good…really good.
Thing is, I get brain freeze.
Milk shake, float, bowl of ice cream…killer.
I eat everthing fast, like someone’s gonna take it away from me fast.
This snow ice cream…no different.
I’m like a dog with a chikin bone.
And I don’t have sense enough to know its coming.
Three quick heaping spoons.
Moan
Writhe
Rub
Contemplate stupidity
Three more quick spoons
What I have found out, is, if I have a hot cup of something nearby, it will immediately relieve a throbbing skull.

What I've found Gary, when banging my head against a brick wall, is that it feels SO GOOD when I stop.

Yeah, well, I can’t pass one up that came available from the widow of the ol’ gent down the path that passed a year ago July.
$200
Hardly used
MTD brand…don’t care for $200
Heh, this last time we got dumped on and worked both our hind ends off all day and into the night to make paths before the deep freeze (of which it’s all solid ice now) we decided to break down and get it…before we break down.
sigh

minus 15 this morning at the cabin.
cant see the mountain in our back yard.
all we see is white snow mist.white snow.no mountain.
wood stove is going.crazy man is running around in shorts and no shirt.lol.
we had a fella go missing yesterday.hes new out here.he got one of those cabin sheds dropped to his property.has a tiny military stove.
left his stuck car on the main road way far from his property.
so we heard his woman yelling.she never comes out here.
so gary o and another good guy went to see what was happening.cops were called to find this fella.
hope he is ok.his stove was pretty lame.
no one went into the property.his cabin is way back in there.
so praying for him to not be frozen.
its cold this morn.brr.
we are staying by the woodstove today except for a few quick runs to the outhouse.
have my soup pot going continually.
getting my gift bags ready for all woodland friends out here.
i crocheted afghans,slippers,knitted hats and scarves for all.put in some pound cakes and candy canes.a bit of this and that.
happy merry christmas to all.
