The Sylvan Grove: Kitchen Blues
http://sylvan-grove.blogspot.com/2008/08/kitchen-blues.html
Just a little place of my own. Saturday, August 16, 2008. I’ve been shopping around, looking at mostly Sears since I have some gift cards for Sears from Mypoints and Discovercard. And they have gas ovens. Did I mention it’s a wall oven and cooktop which costs like DOUBLE what a range does? Grrrr…. And they have white gas ovens. But you know what? All the ovens nowadays are electronic lighting, and electronic displays. And you know what electronics need? HmmI'm vaguely familiar with the "WHOOMP! 4 Being a...

Shasta Girl: UNCLE!!
http://shastagirls.blogspot.com/2009/03/uncle.html
I'm a scrapper. I'm a knitter. I'm a Shasta girl. More snow. yay. As soon as this excrement melts, I'm going to get restarted on the redo. This winter has been exceptionally harsh. I don't think I've seen this amount of snow fall about a decade. I got about a foot within the last 24 hours alone. And it's been cold. Really cold. Spring, oh lovely spring. where art thou?

Shasta Girl: Counter Tops, Revisited
http://shastagirls.blogspot.com/2008/07/blog-post.html
I'm a scrapper. I'm a knitter. I'm a Shasta girl. Counter Tops, Revisited. Ok, there's the counter top, unfurled. I've had it for several days. I've looked at it several times. I must say that I'm slightly dissapointed. I feel like the picture was not representative of what the pattern looks like. Don't get me wrong, it is. I probably would have gotten in anyway, but it's just not what was represented and it's not what I expected. I'm going to keep it, it's nice. I can't wait to glue'er down. Do they hav...

Shasta Girl: May 2008
http://shastagirls.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
I'm a scrapper. I'm a knitter. I'm a Shasta girl. I've already promised my older daughter that I'll hand it down to her once I find my perfect canned-ham Shasta. She was, needless to say, uber-excited about that prospect. Here is my favorite picture of my daughter. It just feels peaceful:. There's not much to update for this weekend. I did a bit more clean up and quite a lot of thinking and planning. I also have a game plan for squaring up the rear end. which is quite out. Today, I thought. So, the idea ...

Shasta Girl: Roof Fridge Vent Installed!
http://shastagirls.blogspot.com/2008/08/roof-fridge-vent-installed.html
I'm a scrapper. I'm a knitter. I'm a Shasta girl. Roof Fridge Vent Installed! Just be prepared for a bitter, annoyed woman. I did a temporary fix that looked like this. Because I didn't have the stainless steel screws to replace the nickel plated ones. Well, I do now! I set out to actually. A project. Go me! It took me about an hour to remove the aluminum duct tape. I'm not proud of this, I'm just sayin. I had to bring out my nemesis. I cleaned the surface using a degreaser. Before putting down the butyl.

Shasta Girl: February 2008
http://shastagirls.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
I'm a scrapper. I'm a knitter. I'm a Shasta girl. Well, I asked more specific questions to the seller of that cute little Shasta. The only reply I received was CC: to a bunch of others that had emailed the seller, saying that they were going to show the trailer to the interested parties in the order in which the request was received. But like I've said, everything happens for a reason. Also, that style of Shasta isn't really what I'm looking for. I'm in love with the canned ham and I think. She’s g...

Shasta Girl: March 2008
http://shastagirls.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
I'm a scrapper. I'm a knitter. I'm a Shasta girl. I didn't get as much done as I'd posted that I had wanted to get done. I really didn't think I'd been too ambitious in my goal-setting. But I guess I was wrong! It's very tedious work. It's not just a smash and rip job. You really have to be gentle when you pull the stuff out because a.) I can't damage the metal channels because I can't find replacements 2.) I don't want to damage the "framing" and c.) I can NOT damage the outter skin! A cool thing is tha...

Shasta Girl: Baby Steps!
http://shastagirls.blogspot.com/2008/08/baby-steps.html
I'm a scrapper. I'm a knitter. I'm a Shasta girl. We worked another 5 hours today and got a two more boards replaced! I know, that doesn't sound like much, but it was huge for my Dad and me. When there's nothing to make a template because it's all rotted mulch, there's a LOT of measure, "figger", measure, cut, wiggle in, nibble off, fit, maybe nibble some more, pound a bit, screw in to place. Needed to be a hardwood. At least. Thought. Pressure treated was NOT an option IMO. Number four, the pine 1×...

The Sylvan Grove: Ashtray, anyone?
http://sylvan-grove.blogspot.com/2008/08/ashtray-anyone.html
Just a little place of my own. Saturday, August 9, 2008. So, I cheated. I had a really ugly bad day (week) at work, and I wanted a cigarette sooo bad on the way home. And I actually waited a couple of hours after I got home, but I still wanted a fresh. I opened a new pack, and fired one up. Is that what they smelled like all the time when I smoked? And I couldn’t smell it? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Pros and Cons of Quitting Smoking. 2 Saves lotsa money. 3 Not smelling like an ashtray. 7 What to...

The Sylvan Grove: New Year Old Year update
http://sylvan-grove.blogspot.com/2009/01/new-year-old-year-update.html
Just a little place of my own. Monday, January 26, 2009. New Year Old Year update. So I'll try to make this short. Gadget Girl and I went to visit our friend Kimmie when it turned out we both had the same week scheduled off. ROAD TRIP! GG hates to drive, and she's an excellent copilot/navigator, and I like to drive, so it works out. We discovered this when my dad passed in Florida and we had to drive back and forth a few times. So I reset the quitting clock. Happy New Year everyone! 2 Saves lotsa money.
