Tuesday’s Two Thoughts

What a beautiful weekend we have had, the only thing that could have been better was a little wind so we could have tested the sails on the boat bringing it home.

This brings me to my first thought this Tuesday morning, yes I slept in and am late posting.

There is no place like home and your own bed to sleep in! I started my post yesterday ( the first two lines) I was going to finish it last night but we arrived home, unloaded, and I found myself blurry eyed and laying down at home in my own bed.

At one point I used to complain how I should get a new one but last night I have never felt better than to just lay there and enjoy being home.  Have you ever felt this way,  just couldn’t wait to get home?

The parrot was so happy to have someone to talk to, I finally had to tell him “I missed you too but hush, let’s get some rest.”  He was so happy when I got up this morning.  He is courteous enough to wait until I am awake to start our morning conversation. Yes he does talk and and has a never ending vocabulary.  I startled Timothy (the parrot) this morning when I finally woke up because I had fluffed my pillow and flipped it over and there was a spider… It ran about a foot from me, turned around and gave me a look like what’s your problem we have snuggled all night! Snuggled or not, I said ” Your dead Mo Fo!”

The second thought for the day is we really lucked out when we arrive at the marina.  It was late and we docked at the wrong area. A nice guy came down to the dock and asked how long are we going to stay… I replied “We have a slip reservation” he said not here you are on the city docks so I need thirty seven fifty for staying the night here.  He told me the other marina is on that side of the channel… a hundred feet away! So I asked do you have any slips here. He said yes and I asked can you beat the price of the marina. Of course he had to radio in and do the back and forth thing with the office, I don’t know why they had empty slips everywhere. So he finally walked back and said yes we can. The savings was a hundred and twelve dollars a month. So the lesson I learned was sometimes it pays to make mistakes and park in the wrong spot…LOL

The boat is in a nice slip right up front by the park near the pavilion and BBQ so we are very happy with the way it all worked out. The best part is because of all the things I do I had all the parts to do the work and had to purchase very little items to get the job done 🙂

Here are a couple photos of the boat finished and back in the water.

Tuesday’s Thoughts

I have been so busy this last week I didn’t notice that the Tweet This Plugin was trashing my blog so I had to remove it. I don’t know why they create plugins and then they don’t keep up with them and you go to your blog to find them like scrambled eggs!

Here it is Tuesday… Time goes so fast when you are having fun as they say…LOL

 

So my first thought of the day was Oh crap I didn’t pick up the sail covers when I went home last night or did I?

We have been staying up at the sailboat working like the devil to get it done and get it in the water because it is about a two hour drive to get here. So we worked so late I could not remember if I had put them away or not. I thought about it and decided to just get in the truck and drive back up to Middle River and go see what I had done. Well you guessed it I had set them to the side there they were soaking wet and in need of laying out to dry but it was supposed to rain today.

It is not raining today – it is hot and humid here so I decided to stay and get some work done.  Why waste the trip?

 

My second thought is it couldn’t be a more cool place to be working it is so quiet and everyone here is really nice. The sailboat is in a gated Yacht club on dry land right near Lockheed Martin and they have all the cool jets that fly over, some in formation and some alone, but all of them are awesome as you know what!

 

Here is a photo taken as I had them move the boat from under the trees and a light pole and into the middle of the yard so I could wash and clean it before I went on to the rest of the project… No sense even trying to clean the boat with it under the trees!

 

 

Have a great Tuesday!
