Good morning!
I had my whole message typed, and then it just disappeared with one error push of a key. I hate that about this software.
Dave, hoping that you don't have to participate in garage sales this year.
My dental insurance needs to be replaced for next year. It covers the small stuff well, but beyond that not so much. I'll be out of pocket $650 for this crown.
Hot, humid and nasty here in Kansas. Already it is 75. I need to do some work in the garden. I'll be out there shortly after 6:30. Storms maybe tonight.
Have a great day!

Good morning gentlemen.
We are garage selling today and tomorrow. So, it goes. Actually, despite my moaning yesterday, I reminded Rita of the sale. I knew she would be upset with herself if she forgot. Everything is staged in the garage, to be placed on the driveway before the sale opens at 9. I put in a large shop vacuum and an oscillating spindle/belt sander on a three-drawer cabinet that have been taking up too much space in my shop. Hope I can get someone to take them.
Good luck on finding better dental insurance, Steve. I am on the Retired Federal Employee plan and it pays 50 percent on crowns, so I am out $660 for the one coming up on my front tooth, just like you. That seems pretty standard.
I grilled some pork chops for supper last night. Brined them all day, then marinated in soy sauce, garlic and palm vinegar for an hour before hitting the grill. With some frozen green beans from last year's garden, and steamed rice, it made a tasty supper.

Good Morning
Heather is at Sea-Tac waiting for her flight home. Sheets are washed and changed, vacuum earned its keep and the house likes decent, probably better than she is expecting. Oscar came back yesterday to remove a Myrtlewood stump and cut another one back. I was warned in the past that getting rid of Myrtlewood is almost impossible due to the roots. But he bid it only to find an 6-8" root running under the bed. It took hours to get it out. His daughter and I watched Mufasa on Disney when he realized he was going nowhere fast and took me up on my offer for her to sit safely inside He only bid $150 for both. I added $100. Oscar's a good man. I am thrilled with how the project came out and for half of the big company bid. It is amazingly beautiful out there.
