46* right now supposed to get up to 60* with snow tonight and a high of 35* with snow tomorrow also....

 

Linch is done....bummer....

 

Yeah I didn't read them, but boy do they hold your attention!



So interview was funny - the position was much higher than what I was qualified for and she thought so. That's why she wanted to check with me, but said to keep looking for a more fitting position. Nothing that appeals yet

 

oh I've got a sick mind....

that's too bad John....

 

No worries at all... the post was misleading imo. I ended up finding another one like she said and applied. The job search is tough for sure. I apply to jobs all the time. Don't hear much back either. Something will come my way.

 

Well after seeing a bunch of houses in Indiana this weekend, I have to say I've found something good that the north has that Texas doesn't . . . Basements! Finished basements are awesome and make normal sized houses huge.

 

who needs a basement. That's what shops are for, plus ore versitile.

 

Went to Houghton and back today and got 18mpg.

 

Nah, I've gotta say, finished basements are the shiznitz. Bar and/or pool table and/or movie theatre room and/or full bathroom . . . all in a dark, man cave atmosphere . . . Me likey finished basements. One of my favorite houses had all that stuff in the basement in addition to a good sized barn/out building with a huge work area. The work area/garage-like portion is one part, then the other portion and loft are all plumbed and wired for a kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, etc. Just not finished. I'd be staying out there if they finished it, so I like the barn. Momma didn't like the house itself though, and it was pretty expensive, so it's a no-go.

And it's all cold. So as much as I like the basements, they can keep them cause they come packaged with single digit temps and lots of snow. Texas forever for me.

 

yep....basements are cool but can be a big PIA sometimes...imo

just got redoing mine due to water damage....just got one bedroom left....

 

That's true. It all depends on the area and where the water table is, etc. My absolute favorite house has an un-finishable, serial killer basement because it's on a river. Too bad cause it's 3,000 sq. ft of unusable space.

I love the wood in yours! How did all of that fair with the water damage?

 

carpet got it.....so slowly installing tile throughout....the wood is double sealed with clear epoxy on the bottom two rows and the rest is sealed with two coats of polyeurothane....

 

 

snow ......

 

No snow but 39 degrees down here right now...70's this evening.
