Nope, but it's getting there. We finally got a cord on the oven and used it last night. Still don't have a kitchen sink yet (week #7, or 9 or something), but we're hoping to mount the counters today or tomorrow, then cut the hole for it. Then we have to run the plumbing from where we tore out the old galvanized stuff.... Aaaaiiiieeee!!! Better get your act together, only 3 months 'till seed starting & 5 months to getting the garden ready. I spackeled the divots in living room walls this morning so we can sand & paint tomorrow.

That lasted until she hit 32 this year; now she wants one ASAP.... go figure. Know your gonna think I'm nuts, don't listen to wife,,,,, have *two* as quickly as possible. Reason, ask anybody with a sane mind & they will tell you when your done with the diaper thing & have finished the potty training, ya don't wanna do it again. & take my word for it, when your 1st born is 5 & the wife says, "Now that my biological clock is ticking loudly, wouldn't it be great if our son/daughter had a brother/sister". I know a bunch of you are gonna call me out on this 1, but my motto is the same as the Boy Scouts, "Be prepared for the least likely scerenio & head it off at the pass so you don't have to suffer the consequenses!". > Well, we had a real road, but it was a fair bit of a bike ride to town for a wee lad... ;-))) Same fond memories of long ride to model shop in town to get stuff for birthday gift from someone. Just remembered, in the mid to late 60's they started having me fill out a form to buy glue (seems some people were snifin it), you still got to fill out that form, Rael? (;>))))! Paul
