Finished my porch table, made from scrap lumber dumped on the side of the road.  The top is a slab of slate with an indentation that resembles a foot print.  And on top of the slab I put a ceramic Black Bear that Carla bought me a few years ago.  A deer antler that I found in the woods when we lived in Fryeburg Maine and a small Black Bear figure to keep the big Bear company.  Later I took a long walk to the Post Office for some stamps.  Along the way, I stopped and got my fill of that wonderful Lilac scent as they are now blooming everywhere.  A beautiful sun shiny day to do so.   8)

The search for a new job is just another step closer for me to get out of Walmart  :o

Good luck with that... I'll try to do mine without causing a big scene and doing a Jim Carrey routine called Cuban Pete

Very nice, Oz.
I am glad to see you enjoy this group.

I thought for long time that I was another army of one.

My mum got news that she'll be having her hip replacement done on the 30th of this month. She's happy about it because she hopes it's the end of having to take strong pain meds. So she has two newish knees and will have two new hips.

My wife began her vacation, today.
I had planned a huge pork butt to smoke on the grille, but the rain has hindered that idea.

I got all the laundry and kids did most of the weekly cleaning. She should be able to just rest!!
She won't, but she can start with a clean house.

Rain will be done soon and we can do this  pork roast tomorrow.

This is not actually a today thing, as such, but click the link. You might be glad you did.

This non vocal autistic valedictorian gave her college's commencement speech with support, but it is inspiring. Get a tissue!

Hit the vid link on the site as well.
