Sage and Pepper's Musings

The hairless one wants to mount the TV to the wall. Only hitch is that it has a ceramic tile covering the fireplace surround where the thing is going to be installed, so that complicates things. Having procured some tile drill bits, he’s off to the races. Sitting over coffee, he had the bright idea Continue reading

It’s been an interesting week here. Lots of dog walks and trips in the car with our noses out of the window. The hairless one has a project to put all the home theatre gear into a rack (which he’s done) and then hoist the TV onto the wall (which he has not). Those yellow Continue reading

Well, the final process of buying our new home went very well. Our closing on Thursday 27th April took all of eight minutes and that morning we brought over some stuff to the new house.

Our front door has frosted glass (never noticed it before) and the ground irrigation system is being installed for the neighbours. We’re still 40-ish days from taking Continue reading
