Well this house and plumbing kicked my ass. I missed Robert Earl Keen due to this house. Brian helped me buy some stuff and I want to send a big thank you. and Tony my other son help me with a plumbing issue. If I ever get my keeper a bath room that has a shower and Tub and toilet I aint gonna do nothing else . I feel the dream is over and it only lasted 2 months. It broke me I thought I would make it alright but i know now that was just a pipedream. From now on any thing needs fixed it will be fixed with duct tape and forgot about. oh yea our jeep broke down today that will be another 1,000 or so . But guess what Ill park the son of a bitch and walk to where we need to go..

Sunday morning coming down

Hi everybody but I only thinks it is only me and maybe one other person. Any way it is cold in this old house this morning. On the last stages of the bathroom. Gonna miss the Robert Earl keen think today just too busy and all tuckered out oh well. Better get with it so I will see Who ever later Buy!!!!!!

feeling a little better

Morning . got some sleep last night. Bathroom is a bitch but I think it is at last going our way. Going to do the tile today and wing it with some kind of mixing and matching of the tile ill let you know.  You Know that game in the game rooms called whack a mole? Well I played it yesterday My wife came and said come here the ground is moving, Willie the guy that lives next door once said his grand pa watches the ground to move then stomps it and smashes the critter. Well with a hammer in hand I slithered to the spot where the ground was moving. Watched and waited for movement . I studied the movement and figured out where the critter was. Then just at the right time I swung the Mighty hammer and delivered a stunning blow to our mole population,one less little bugger to destroy my yard. So when I finish the money pit bathroom I will be on safari in my yard. I wonder do you need a hunting license for moles?

it's 2:40 AM cant sleep

Morning  woke up yesterday morning and had a idea to start on the bathroom. Cleared out everything and started to remove the laminate from around the tub. It came off quite easy not a bunch of cussing. It was installed on Blue board and I was quite happy. Got down to about 2 ft above the tub and there it was. MOLD!. Not much and my keeper says she has seen more then that in a lot of houses she use to clean,so not a problem. I cut out the green board and removed it . and went about the task at hand she killed the mold. When they build this house away back when , it has siding, some kind of flat board and plaster. When the other guy put up the bath he installed the green board. Then I removed the vanity,and sink that was but ass ugly.

Then it was off to Builders Square with our budget already shot to shit we started shopping. Dry wall, Green dry wall, screws, dry wall tape and joint compound, and some odds and end of the wood kind. Then we walked into  the tile department. Not a soul to ask a question, so we just started to load the cart. After about a half hour some guy walks up and says "may I help you" well I guess he earned about a 22% of his days wages. Checked out and off to the bungalow we went unloaded our stuff and went back to work' Placed Green board and sheet rock and put joint compound in the seams and nail holes. Well while that was setting up I went on line and found out that ceramic tile can not be installed on green board, WTF!!! a long time ago I seen it installed on just plan old sheet rock . Now you are telling me I cant do that  "holy cow".looked at about 200 sites and all but a few said you cant do that.then I found one that said it would work so that is what we are going to do, go over the green board. Dam It is late gotta get some sleep so I will be of clear mind on what to do. I know in the 70;s it was installed just over sheet rock I seen it with my own two eyes. Well Ill close now and fill you in tomorrow on the bathroom from hell. good night . I hear it is a snow storm in Denver well it is 66 at 3:15 in Humble

Hello its been awhile from the last time I posted. Remember what I was saying about the fools that lived next door . Well any way they got kicked out, and  I told you  they was using the bath tub as a toilet . The land lord hired a couple to come and clean the place up well. Well they found that the drunks that was living in the house was also (you ready for this)  was using the out side shed to take a crap in. The sewer is plugged and I have no Idea of how they cleaned it. and what they did with the shit!!!!!!.  Well now for good stuff. I fixed all the rotted wood outside and took out a fan and moved a light over and we are getting ready to start on the bath room. Money is tight to do much at one time but if it takes us a year to finish this house who cares. Y'all come a visit us we would love to see ya.

Weekends almost here! We made a road trip to Delta Downs casino in Louisiana . We lost a bunch of money that we could not afford to loose, but what the hell is money. We still have a roof over our head and food.  The bill ain't going to be paid , and painting will wait for a month. All my bills was from doctors that we seen last year they tried to fix us and couldn't and the insurance that wanted 900.00 a month to continue to keep us covered would not pay,and insurance! Loving it back here in Texas my keeper lets me make a road trip every now and then to enjoy this wonderful state. Social Security check should be deposited yesterday. that means I received a little bit of my money that I invested for the last 46 years. I know of Illegals that worked here for 15 years and turned 62 and got the same amount of money I'm getting and went back to Mexico. let me ask you why illegal get social security this once great nation is on the road to hell thanks impart to Bush, Clinton,Bush and Obama, the muslim.Then to top it all off we have been trying to get information into our bank"  Chase" and nothing works right I called the person that started our account and mom is looading his ears with her rath.But one thing about it The Road Goes On forever, and The Party Never ends"

ONE MORE

I just could not stop doing this even if I'm the only one reading it. October 3.2011only about 10 days until my first SS check comes and gives me a little step up. The amount of the SS is way below the poverty level for this nation. If I would of had a car, House payment something would need to go unpaid. gotta get frugal to survive. If you are young set aside plan to save money for retirement donor rely on a 401 K plan and SS. I invested in my 401 plan and the stock market took it away. Look for something else, for gosh sakes our bank's savings account is giving 1% on savings as long as your balance stays at a fix point. A person needs to live so how in the HELL does one leave money in the bank with out touching it. 1% Hell I started with the help of my parents a savings account in 1965 and I was receiving 7% interest and that gave me a toaster to start the account. Well on to a different topic woke up to a bit of a cool spell, Mom is scampering around the house looking for sweat pants and hoodies. going to bake a cake just so she can turn on the oven . It did get cold here 79 last night so i feel sorry for her. Did I say about the trolls that was living next door well the land lord  came last night and threw them out ain't seen a drunk in 2 days next door. Talked to a dear friend of mine who went thru a hurricane in New Jersey New Jesey? I thought they only made crappy hot sauce But after some hard work they came out ok. Rain did I say rain we sure need a bunch of rain. Today gonna repair my last window that has a bit of wood rot if the window opens. Then I got a small leak on the water line into the house that needs attion so I might tackle that. If I dont drown from fixing the water I might be back at a later date. Have a good one and take care of the people you love bye from us in Texas
