Crazy Week
This has been an insanely crazy week. Last Sunday I thought it would be a nice slow week that I could really get into the holiday spirit and enjoy life. I spent days after work doing computer repairs/upgrades for people. During the rain we had this week my roof sprung a leak. I still haven’t found it. I do have a coupld places I think it might be coming from, I’ll just have to wait a couple days until it rains again to figure out for sure where it’s coming from. On Thursday the HVAC guy came out to check out the heater and clean it. That took a few hours and lots of money. Yesterday they turned on our Solar Panels. More importantly yesterday was Victoria’s birthday.
Today, lets see, today I cleaned the kitchen (thats normal for saturday morning) then I fixed the cupboard door that has been sitting on the floor for who knows how long; I stubbed my toe one too many times. I fixed the leak in the kitchen faucet. (P.S. it’s really hard to find the right gaskets for cheap, no name faucets. There are kits for delta and moen and other nice brands, the cheap ones are hard to find. I had to by a 12 dollar pack of gaskets to get the right one. So if you need a gasket see me first. I have about 100 in assortes sizes, who needs 100 gaskets?) I also made some good progress on a christmas present I’m making. I really want a quiet week to come home and not have anything to do but spend time with my family. I know it won’t happen for a long time, invariably something comes up, but it sure would be nice.
It’s Winter
Winter is finally here. The National Park Service webcam at the grand canyon provided this great photo of winter’s arrival. Maybe we should take a field trip.

Photo Op.
Most of the times I have had to go out of town for work I’ve had opportunities to take great photos. I usually don’t have time to stop and take a photo, or am too lazy to get out and take a photo, so they never realize. The pictures remain immortalized within my own head, but never make it out. This week I went to Show Low and the forest service was conducting controlled burns of the underbrush. The dense smoke and the setting sun provided some amazing photographs. The light conditions were optimal, even though I was too lazy to even pull over.
