Odds and ends

We have been clearing up odds and ends on the house getting things ready for the drywall installer. He said he might be able to get here the end of this coming week. We went to an auction Saturday. There were interesting items there but we are still being cautious. Not quite ready because we still do not have a designated spot for whatever we might buy and we have the wonderful position of being able to wait on things until it feels completely right and not just okay.
We did buy a couple of electric carving knives to use in trimming up insulation in a few spots. It works wonderfully for that purpose. They may show up on a sale table in Magnolia park when we are finished with them. The auction was fun though. I think it is always interesting to see what people will pay for things.

We have heard that once the overpass is finished in Jefferson that they will build barricades to prevent people from going around the arms and then they will not be required to blast their horns on the trains. We have great hopes that these rumors are true. Living near trains does build up a tolerance but the silence would be golden.

And that concludes the odds and ends...
