well folks.. a nudder day AND week is comin to a close.. wow.. le weekend again.. time is flyin I tell ya..

got lots done outside today.. got the cover off the gazebo.. patched it up (strong winds made a few small tears) and got it stored away.. got all the wood sheeting off the top of the gazebo too AND cleaned the patio stones so it's ready for the furniture there.. just have ta swing by the hardware store for another can of paint ta finish the wood stove pipe and pick up some wood and joist hangers for the deck roof beams so I can install'em AND have a fire this weekend.. I'll have ta use the tarp again this summer and wait till next summer, when my construction worker son-in-law's here, ta put the actual roof on the deck.. so I guess I'll be busy lol

Wow.. that's amazing.. I built a "dog" house that I keep in my back yard.. I insulated it and added thermal 'curtains' where the front door is.. I leave it year round cuz some nights can get super chilly here regardless of the time of year..

a friend had a chow years ago.. like yours.. HUGE teddy bear.. very much like my Bermese'n Pyrenes.. love ta cuddle and super soft'n floofy.. I had to shave my Pyrenes once cuz he got himself supper matted when someone let him outta the yard, he was gone for several hours.. he was SO mad at me.. he looked exactly like a male lion

somethin kinda like this lol

I named him Bear and when he stood on his hind legs he was about 6'4"

show stopper

GW.. I'll take what yer dishin out.. minus the beer'n drinks



nite slim.. wow.. kinda early fer a friday nite.. no??


yer loss

I wish that was the case with me.. seems men like ta take me hostage and not in a GOOD way.. so.. as soon as I can, I escape

he's afraid ta run up another tab in da Pub..

ya mean other than moi???



here ta make waves

Blow up

Song: I like a lot of music, but one that seems to always be in my head is Offspring 'Bad Habit' I just listened to it.. wow... not on MY playlist lol however Kryptonite by 3 doors down = yes

TV shows: I like the 'How-to' shows. Whether it is about building something, how something was done, or even a strategic game show like Survivor. I LOVE those shows.. not the game shows but the How-To's - I find'em very inspirational while I reno my home

Dog: Basset Hounds are the perfect dog for me, but I like most dogs as long as they are friendly...lol I've always had big dogs, Bermese Mtn Dogs, Great Pyrenes & King doberman.. big teddy bears

Cats: I like wild cats, they should not be shut up in the house. My best cat was one that the neighbors brought inside for about a year, after she escaped she would claw you up if you went to the door holding her...lol the one that hangs out with me is a Feral (I guess you cud say wild cat) she won't go near anyone BUT me and she's rarely inside.. even in winter, unless it's like -20 or there's heavy snowfalls

Pet: Besides my dog, I like having a goat in the yard. Always playful and fun. Chickens are good also but take too much work any more for me.now that my dog has passed, there's only the feral cat, raccoons and foxes (although they're not my PETS they trust me enough to be close up)


cuz yer late to the "game" I just added ma 2cents

GREAT movie.. Classic.. and yes.. best watched with an audience that knows the movie lol


got that right.. the world is being destroyed by men in suits..

good luck with that one Slim..
never heard of it.. cuz obviously it doesn't exist

ooh crappy doo.. good point GRB.. totally forgot about that one..

up chuck

sir.. wait.. got another bag for ya




to help Sir with collecting the garbage

that could pose a problem for those that are in Mingle's jail.. (accounts deactived for "code violations")

Mingle doesn't have many real folks working behind the scenes (MAYbe 1 or 2? cuz it takes forever to get someone REAL to answer you) and currently their AI algorithms are booting active users without actual cause (I SWEAR I didn't do it.. whatever I supposedly did LOL) so I've personally had to create a "new" profile in order to advocate my release and reinstatement.. and.. therein lies the problem with your suggestion..

they'd have to hire people to actively work with the site to properly monitor it without causing 20 year veterans to be booted..

Out back

cuz HE's afraid Mikey won't share

weekly win fer me is.. not a whole heck of a lot no major wins..


but I did FINALLY get someone up on ma roof ta take a video of ma LEAK issue.. OMG guess some people can't be taught what ta do even when you draw'em a diagram

cost of living.. today.. gents


what the heck is SMH (shut ma hole?)

Mo reminded me of one of ma fave movies...



gotta watch with plenty of buttered (plant based) popcorn'n either chilli powder or herbamare spicy sea salt.. YUM
