Yeah you read it right, my butt is dragging. We had just finished laying 450 tile on the back patio. I had to clean each and everyone. I was so happy that we had finished when the last tile was laid. Unfortunately, the project queen told me she wanted to pour a ledge to hold the pot belly stove and the log holder. Seems that she wants to be able to look at the fire in the stove. Everyone, except for Debbie, can easily see the fire in the stove when they walk out of the house. Long story short...we mixed 16 bags of cement to make a ledge for the pot belly stove and the log holder. Then, I had to paint grout sealer on each and every one of the grout lines. Oh! did I mention that the project queen just had to go in the house and lay down while I cleaned and sealed the grout!! Surprise, Surprise.
I then came in to see her laying on the sofa while she played games on her own laptop. Did she say thanks or good job? Nope, she said that she was hungry and was too tired to cook. I had to wait inside the pickup so that my butt could catch up to me. When it did, I drove down and picked up some Mexican Food. When I walked into the house, she said, "Can you bring me the food, I am too tired to get up".
I get a reprieve Wednesday through Friday because we are going to Keller and then on to Dallas to see those great grand kids. The bad news is that Debbie left her new book at Cody's. Guess what the title is........"Play houses and other projects for your grand kids." We probably will need to buy some more land, because it is quite obvious that our back yard is full.
