Did you see in the link that Hiram wants to convert their community center into a police facility? What are they going to do for community meetings?

Dang!!! We had dinner there tonight and left a little before 8pm. We just missed it.

My sister-in-law, who is not in the city limits, went down to their office in the new administration building when her basement was getting flooded. They sent out an inspector in a couple of days. I think either the county or the city should do that.

A lot depends on the thickness of the laminate and if it's waterproof. We put a 12mm thick waterproof laminate down in our basement because we worry about water coming in. Also, remember to put down both underlayers.

A short while ago, two girls from Austin Platation subdivision came by and rang our bell. They brightened our day by singing christmas carols putside our door. This is the first time anyone has done this here. If their parents are reading this, you must be so proud of them.

Congratulations, Our first grandchild celebrated her first b'day last week and the first year has been amazing. It's best that we've been able to watch her at least one day a week.

Ditto --- at least Tony Shahloub cancelled that one, not the network. It was gettng harder & harder to come up with new plots and OCD stuff.

I do listen to my home e-mails bacause there is a red light that goes on when there is one. But, I don't have my cellphone on much, and therefore don't listen to the messages until a week later or more. So, I changed my cellphone's voicemail message to "I'm hardly on the cellphone, so I won't hear this message for some time --- please call my home number." So, do you think it stops anyone from leaving a message on the celphone? Nope, and they have my home number.

Thanks, Wife is checking to see if there are any more to put on 1 CD --- will call.
