**HAPPY FATHER’S DAY ALL YOU DADS!!!**

I hope all the rest of you who have fathers hugged or called 'em today. Like **rosie** said, that’s something I can’t do anymore. ☹

I am a somewhat (ok, greatwhat) happier bear today cause, this afternoon, I got me some ACBG lovin’. 😃 Now I’m all relaxed, showered and sipping on a cold beer. Life is good. That is all.

Happy Fathers Day! I just talked to my Mom, Dad went to a break in at the Chamber of Commerce. I worked all day, just got home and ordered pizza(when come back, bring pie). The"kids" got me something for Fathers day: puke. I tend to celebrate Mothers Day because so many people call me mother.

[QUOTE=FairyChatMom]  
I don’t know what happened, but I managed to close the window that held my post.

To summarize - I’m taking a break. Apart from breakfast and yet another trek to Lowe’s, I’ve sanded the first coat of mud, added a second coat, and painted the block wall. After we relax a bit, we’re going to install the lights and the exhaust fan in the studio. And I’ll probably clean it up a little, too - it’s a disaster right now.

When I sat down here at the computer, my little attention whore of a cat started climbing all over me. But she is cute, as evidenced by [this pic](http://s72.photobucket.com/albums/i178/fairychatmom/?action=view&current=snoozekitty.jpg) taken last night. If she’s not trying to sleep on my head, she likes to sleep on this recliner in her afghan nest.

It’s way hot here - well, not _way_ hot, but hot enough that we closed the house and turned on the AC. Except it’s not hot enough for the AC to kick on, but if we left it open, it would be. Which tells me that the trees shading the house are doing their job. So there’s that.

Is that mundane enough?

**FairyChatMom** Wanted to say thank you for the nice ceramic pieces you sent and ask how many were claimed and how many are left to be selected? I hope all the other posters on this thread took advantage of the offer and got their own. Mine is on my desk now with my Peanut M&M’s in it so I see it every time I’m on the Board.  
So, how’d it go?
