Well I decided to sell 4 of my olive eggers. I don't need 8 olive eggers. It would free up some space for me in the coop and help with next years chicken fever  

 

 

[Ontarkie 14,314]

Well 2 already sold, will meet with someone tomorrow at 4pm. 

 

[TBoneTX 45,654]

Selling your children as though they're chickens or something, hmmmph D ma'am!

Bad Ontarklar!  Bad, BAD Ontarklar!

Mrs. T-B. took Mini-B. to a pizza place this eve, shuttle wee man she man.

They returned with some leftover slices, left unattended for we man.

 

Noting asleep-like-the-dead cat, we repaired upstairs with boxed pizza, surreptitious we & sleepy miu man.

Cat rapidly appears and monopolizes our lap, jockeying for pizza, motivated miu man.

Hard to fend off determined cat with one hand while other is occupied with pizza, challenge for we man.

Painting porch railings. Not my favourite way to spend the day.  It's all going to need a second coat too. Meh. Not made easier by a dog who wants desperately to help.  I finally shut her in the house, and she barked at me through the window for the next two hours.

 

MIL is not happy. The lake they are on had the water level dropped 4 feet in the anticipation that Florence would overtop the shoreline. It looks 'yucky' and ought not to be allowed

 

Her house was off the market for two weeks, now newly listed with a different agent. The new person dumped all the old pictures, which were taken when the place was still full of stuff. Now empty, which unfortunately shows the state of the floor coverings, and this time it has a more realistic description. No more 'lush backyard paradise'... because the yard person (me) didn't keep it up. It looks terrible, a total dead brown mess. All the hours I spent out there gone to waste. No more 'wonderful view from the parlor' either ...which looks directly up the street. Seriously.

Price dropped again, but still more than any other newer better properties to be had  in the area.  235 days on the market and there it sits.

The casa next door has been vacant for probably Many years, unless haunted man.

Absentee owner is allegedly an idiot, and wife is allegedly super-cheap but in a dumb way, sigh man.

They re-roofed the casa earlier this year, many Roof Mexicans man.

They completely remodeled the interior, necessary but lipstick-on-pig man.

However, they didn't do the foundation,  man.

 

There's a big open crack in the ceiling, visible as soon as one walks in man.

No mortgage co. will give a loan to prospective purchasers if there are foundation problems, no man.

Furthermore, foundationing it now will hose the roof and the interior (countertops, etc.), duh man.

Is it any wonder that the place is on its Many'th (2+2th) listing with as many real estate cos., huh man?

 

Ironically, the last resident (renter, now living a bit farther down the street), told the owners "Fix the foundation and give me a new roof, and I'll buy it from you at market price," but they ignored him, bird-in-hand lost man.

The benefit to a vacant contiguous casa is access to their garbage bins when needed, lifesaver man.

Saturday ES report, see man:

 

Our first duty was to gas the bone-dry Mrs.-T-B.-mobile, she did it again man.

While we were doing that, it began to rain again, warshout all the GSs man.

We were tired before that and were tireder afterwards, need zzz we man.

Accordingly, our interest in GSs/ESs was flagging except to keep our streak alive, logical we man.

 

We encountered 2 phantom GSs and one phantom MS (moving-sale), grrrr man.

Another MS was worthless, don't waste our TIME man.

Our last stop, an ES, yielded the take, see man:

 

-- new-in-package Hefty snack-plates (Many), new-in-package Hefty dinner plates (Many), Many (2+2) 

     warshcloths = $Many ($2+1+tax), steal man

Total = $Many ($2+1) + tax

In other Saturday news, we donated our Many (2x2x2) never-fit-into-them-again suits, bye and sigh man.

We were torn up about it enough, sigh man.

At donation place, Vice-Presidentess of the Board of Directors was outside, impressive she man.

She made a huge deal about how "sharp" our suits all were, rub in the obvious she man.

When we went inside the resale store, she informed the pricing lady about our "sharp, beautiful" suits, re-rub it in man.

 

We had a long chat with her about pending changes to the resale store, sharp & engaged she man.

They want to better promote the store as the chief funding vehicle for the contiguous Food Pantry, smart man.

She said that, per their analysis, only Many (2x2x2) cents of every store dollar does not support the FP, wow man.

 

We agreed that her goals made sense, $i man.

We shared some tip-of-the-forebrain recommendations, receptive she man.

Chief among these was to associate with the local POTS industry, super-logical man.

She said, "I've heard about them and am awestruck with their reputation, popularity, and success!", quoth she man.

We cagily implied that we'd do what we could to grease the way toward an association, cagey we man.
