Good morning!  It's daylight in the swamp, some where.  We live just a bit to far north to see the sunrise now until seven thirty eight am, though I can see the dawn happening outside my window now.
  Yes the days are getting shorter, which can only mean one thing, "HALLOWEEN"!!  Are we ready? Well one of our stops was to pick up the treats for the little one's that shall be ringing the door, yelling "trick or treat" come halloween.  Perhaps I should dress up as some sort of monster, when I greet them at the door!  Just to pass out the treats, hmmm?  I will have to give this one some thought.
  Yesterday Susan and I managed to accomplish most things on our list.  We still have to return to the big city today, to finish up with our passports at the Government Building.  Then there are a couple of small errands to run.  Today it is supposed to be sunny, so we will stop over at Michele and Derek's to finish the install on the other half of the railing before we return home.
  Today will also be the day we park my pick-up in the back garage!  It's parking spot is finally ready!  It took awhile, but when we returned from the city, I made the final preparations yesterday afternoon.  With today being sunny, it should give the pick-up an opportunity to dry off and the alley time to dry.  No need to drag any gravel into the garage.
  With these projects out of the way it will be on to finalizing the clean up in the front garage, and then we will have another work station.  This will enable us to complete the remainder of the reno's in the house.  Yes we are just about there!
  I work very slow, this seems to help keep my headaches in check.  Yes and sometimes I catch myself doing the same job twice, especially if I try to rush things!  So you adjust, we slowly learn to slow down, pace oneself, smell the roses, and try to appreciate everything we have experienced so far at Building the Simple life.......................
