Daily Grin October 7

Finally, Friday is almost here. I have training in the morning, a lunch outing for two hours, then try to clear out early. I will be travelling in less than two weeks, but fear not, for the Daily Grin will be delivered early with a "do not open until...." notice in the subject line. I have to be in St Louis for two days of training and I'll be travelling with my boss.  The hotel we'll be staying in has a hot breakfast. Apparently hot means eggs and sausage and biscuits and gravy... not bread and a toaster. Hmmm... biscuits and gravy is not a "Canadian" thing. Neither are grits... but they don't mention grits on the hotel website. Anyway, I like a "real" breakfast and to me, that's one that blends non-dairy proteins with healthy carbs like fruit and whole grain breads. The training will be intense, but I'll feel better after I have it.
 
We have a long weekend... Monday is Thanksgiving in Canada. I will be bringing some work home and some studying, but I promise to try and relax/unwind a little this weekend.
Have a good nite!!! J

10 Clues That You've Gone Overboard On Home Improvement
by Sandy Lindsey


  1. You've built a drive-thru car wash in the second slot of your 2-car garage.

  2. You'll use any excuse to add a new room onto the house, including needing more space for the newest addition to the family -- your daughter's goldfish Buffy.

  3. Even Martha Stewart has deemed your multi-level, hydraulically-operated kitchen is "a bit overdone."

  4. You've converted the standard stall shower into a "bathing waterfall," complete with tropical plants.

  5. Your rear-projection, surround-sound TV room can comfortably seat 43, and you're trying to make arrangements with Universal for first run films.

  6. Your dog has a duplex dog house out back, even though he sleeps in bed with you every night.

  7. The local building department says you can't add a fourth floor to a house that was originally zoned as a single level dwelling.

  8. You bought and demolished your next door neighbors house to make room for an Olympic size swimming pool.

  9. You've installed a small freight elevator going to your attic.

  10. You've built an FAA-approved helipad on your roof.
