RE: Dinner for Mother's day

I also had a major brainwave this morn. I'm gonna go pick up my scaffold, so I don't have to keep the up and down thing on the latter.
Is that using the old noodle, or what?

RE: Dinner for Mother's day

I don't mind going under when it is nice. It is when it is 30 below, and full of water that I don't want to. I've got more of my tin off on the yard side. The wall isn't as bad as I thought. Will only have to replace a couple pieces. At least I found where the Ants are coming from. I won't Put any p...

RE: Laminate Flooring, Quarter Round & Base Board Questi

I haven't added baseboards yet. I'm making my own. That way I can make them wider on the bottem to hide where the wall is out. You could always go with a molding too. I've found the crown molding to be wider, and actually looks good turned and used as baseboards.

RE: Pennyless Bath Tub Spruce Up

I don't know about the "Jim Bean" , but I seem to remember an "Iron Maiden" concert with a bottle of "Southern Comfort". I do believe that was the last time I drank that. I was in high school, standing on the back of a chair, three rows from stage. The big guy that was ...

RE: Hola!

Listen to Yanita!!! I put off the underbelly for too long. Now I have alot of work to do from previous owners. I have to say though, I was pretty peeved about someone stealing my metal rake, but I found an old one under my trailer. Worked out good. I didn't have to crawl all the way to remove the ol...

Dinner for Mother's day

Thanks to Troyster and family for a great dinner. I sure wasn't looking forward to cooking. The kids had fun too. I also have to say that next time I have to go under the place, Troyster, I'm phoning you!!

RE: Pennyless Bath Tub Spruce Up

Later in life you will start thinking of ways to make less work for yourself! Too many Mountain Dews? That was another new thing when I was young! I like my Red wine, very well named "Kelly's Revenge". I don't know yet if there is really a revenge to it! Kelly

RE: Pennyless Bath Tub Spruce Up

Well Yanita. Maybe there won't be any scrubbing going on in that tub! Definitely won't be using an abrasive. Don't worry. We all at one time or another make fun of or take short cuts. I have the hairspray thing to cover ceiling stains before painting, but hey, it does work! If I have to paint a ceil...

RE: Hola!

I have laminate floors through-out, for two reasons. Can't stand the feel of carpet on my bare feet, and if you've ever seen what collects under a carpet, well, thats why. I have allergies too. I am never surprised what I find in, under, or around a mobile home. I always figure there will be more wo...

RE: Opened a can of worms on Mother's day!

Thanks Yanita.


I did update my album with a few new picks. Couldn't get the root to show in a pic. It's too far back to see.

Opened a can of worms on Mother's day!

Doesn't matter what day it is, there is always work to do around here. I removed some more of the old skirting to start the clean-up of the Buffalo board that I knew was on the ground underneath. What a mess. At least I didn't find any Cat corpses. My daughter was up-set that we didn't find any frog...

RE: Happy Day to you!!!

Well, as usual, my hubby is out of town. Troyster's son is spending the night here tonight, so Troyster and wife have some time together. Tomorrow, we are all having dinner over there. My daughter writes me messages on the chalk board in the laundryroom, so I read them everytime I go past. She is su...

RE: Kitchen backsplash ideas

She had the fancy paneling. Factory mobile home. She is just really bad with the water. I don't know why she doesn't ring-out the cloth. It has me stumped! She tends to spray the water to wet the cloth too. You know when water pressure is way too high, and you put something under it. By the way, thi...
