Volbeat

I love this band.  I love Tool more of course, but Volbeat is damn fine too.  This is one of their harder ones.  They go all over the place style wise, and I adore that about them.  Never know what to expect next outta them!

We're waiting to hear back about a home equity line of credit so we can get the patio/steps and front steps/walkway fixed.  It's gotten ridiculous going in and out of the house.  Someone is going to get hurt.  I am so tired of taking out $$ for home repairs.  Not much choice though.  These are things that won't wait any longer to be fixed.  Last thing I want is the foundation damaged from the water coming against it due to the grading issues in both areas (probably why they both fell apart too - bozos who built the house didn't fully back fill and tamp).

The microwave is still busted also.  They had to order a part that no one stocks anymore (thankfully, it's only $36 - yay!).  Considering it's very old, makes sense.  Hope it will be fixed by end of next week.  The garage doors and the toilet are just going to have to wait.  I know the damn roof/gutters will be the next nightmare, and I hate having all this debt from home repairs.  It is what it is though.  Grateful that's the only thing I have to whine about.

Kye is an adorable smunchie and he's doing great.  My sister called and he spent a long time on the phone talking to her son Henri.  It was so CUTE! <3  It's a shame we live so far apart.  The boys adore each other.  I asked Alex if she'd be interested in Disney maybe next Xmas (year and a half away).  She didn't sound enthused, but maybe she'll change her mind.  I think they'd love getting to spend time together at Disney, and my in-laws usually go right after Xmas.  We could all go together as a big group.  I think all the kids would have a blast together.

In the bad news department, my aunt's mother-in-law passed away.  I feel bad my cousin's lost their grandmother.  The silver lining is she was in her 90s, and she had a long full happy life.

kye, family, alex
