My paternal grandmother was a hoarder of junk, too. Things like styrofoam meat trays, plastic milk jugs (all sizes), and paper grocery sacks. It took my dad over a month just to clean out her garage ... and that had the *least* amount of junk in it!

If the upstairs shower pan has been leaking for (cue valley girl voice)*like for-EVerrrr*, you will definitely have some structural damage to the floor/ceiling joists there in the form of rot. You may also have mold issues, too. A simple test to see if there is damage is to simply walk on the floor in the bathroom. If it flexes at all, there's damage.

I feel bad for the dog ...

Have fun in Vegas!

(oh yeah, almost forgot - waves hi to the crazy lady. :D)

Oh I'm aware. *goes into the garage under the bathroom and looks up* See? I can see the bottom of the bathroom floor. Oh look! Rot! Hooray rot!

Why didn't he get that fixed? No clue. Even when I'd say, hey Dad, I know a guy who can fix that... nope. He'd rather risk falling through the floor.

I am boggled.

Heh. ;)

Possibly he was worried about how much it would cost ...

Jen, I have missed you like you wouldn't believe! And I cannot say how happy I am to hear from you. ♥
I'm so sorry to hear about your FIL, it's never easy to lose someone you love, no matter who they are or what role they played in your life.
Sounds like bosslady hasn't changed much then, eh? Haha. Her "duhness" always had me smiling and rolling my eyes all in one, haha. Good thing she has you around, eh? *wink*

Love ya girl, please keep in touch! You're always in my best of thoughts. XX

Eh, surviving. Life, ya know how it is. :)
Been dealing with Toby (my oldest, almost 9 yrs. old) and his HORRIBLE behavior and lying and bullying, etc. Just UGH. I finally took a wooden spoon to his behind the other day... NOT something I ever wanted to do, and I cried after I did it... but seriously, he's lucky I didn't do much worse. *shakes head*
He's the major issue these days. Jared and I are doing really well. Except for, when it comes to disciplining Toby... he is FAR too lenient, in my opinion. I feel like he doesn't do crap to punish toby for what he does, and when he does punish him, it's hardly anything. Whereass I am much MUCH harder on him, and jared thinks I'm too hard on him. So there's apparently no in between. Anyway. *sigh* Right on the edge, no joke, I'm right on the edge and ready to seriously explode. Ugh ( ... )

You had sent me a link to some photos a while back of You and Dana out with Doyle and Kas and seriously!! The first thing that went through my mind was "what is that guy doing with that..."

Proactiv? That's weird!

"what is that guy doing with that..."

inorite? Plus, without her, he was really quite sane. I mean, I'm not really one to talk, I fell into the crazy pit for a sec there too, but still...

Anyhoo, yeah Proactiv. I think he was passing time with Billy Mays and QVC. He had a lot of weird Only Seen On TV type stuff, like this clock/thermometer/timer thing that didn't work at all. More stuff for us to toss... meh.

For some people "hoarding" is an OCD condition. *shrugs* Doesn't make it logical or anything.

I'm not sure how much was hoarding and how much was just laziness, tbh.

I've been to Vegas twice this year. Once at the Wynn. The Wynn is VERY nice :)

Yes it is (and I know you were you twitter whore), but the Hard Rock gives us free suites ;)
