Right now I'm sipping a well earned beer/painkiller. I'm on the 3rd load of laundry. I've cleaned & semi set up one shelf of crystal, done my normal morning stuff, made lunch for my step father & the puppies & I'm sure that there more that I don't remember. My back pretty much locked up while making the display of crystal so I've only started moving well after my 2nd beer. So while waiting for this load of laundry to dry I'm watching the Disney Swamp Fox on U-Tube. That was made back when Disney had a well earned name for family entertainment.

Oh & the hard part.....I suggested & got approved the set up of a mini shelf of crystal (she even said that it was a good idea). And suggested & got it semi approved for a big shelf set up. What's more on that big shelf I don't have to do anything but clean the crystal & set it up, she has to pick the pieces. All & all getting something done & putting my wife in the position of having to help, it's a good day.
 
A buggy accident on our road this morning. At the end of the road was church this morning, so lots of buggies going past our house. A neighbor on the way there has a huge dog named Otis that likes to chase wheels and horses, and we're pretty much used to him, but he ran out in front of a horse not used to him. Tipped the buggy. Very pregnant wife is ok, husband has a broken collar bone. Both at the ER in the bigger town. Otis is a problem.
 
I was hoping to see her famous toenail polish!! She's going to have to take another picture!!
I need to paint them again...I thought I was going to lose the one I almost ripped off a month ago..my big toenail..
I tore it half ish way off but smashed it back down and it appears to kinda have attached itself back..kinda..
It ain't perdy...

I did remove the offending air vent..
 
Where the air vent used to be..
Gone to the dump..toekiller!!
Slapped a peice of 1x4 in the hole over some expanding foam to plug the air vent hole, central air in this place doesn't work anyway..
Then put a peice of that plastic tile over it..
The colors kinda match..

When I first looked at the pic I thought it resembled the Nazi symbol.
 
Nice rocks, petrified wood. I've never had any. I collect rocks too. Usually little stuff, @Hooch Glad your toe is doing better.
If I had done anything today, that would have been great. Just not feelin' so great.
