At least not any more, I can't. If I go to the house where my youngest sister is there is liable to be a death, Mine, Hers, or her LIL (Live in Lover)... Why? Dude donates his pay to Adolph Coors and company, Or to R J Renolds and company. Then when the end of the month comes around he starts demanding money from anyone who comes through his door...
Last month, due to Christmas he started in early and walked up on me when I had intended to take a shower and demanded money. I thought for a minute he was going to lay hands on me and I had every intention of doing my best to put him in a grave if he did. I won't have that sort of insanity in my life! So I need to find some place to bathe (shower preferably) I have a lot of work to do on my mother's bath before I trust it... Probably in the neighborhood of $2000 worth of work if I do it mostly myself... Mostly 'cause I'll end up making several hundred extra drives of 80 miles round trips, 'cause I'll forget what I need, or discover some major problem that I didn't expect when I started. But really the issue is deeper than that... I need to do the whole roof of the hole house and I think that is going to require new sheathing (if I said that wrong let me explain... I need to replace the boards under the shingles. Not part of them, but all of them...} And my truck won't hold a full sheet of plywood... So even with the tailgate down it will be a challenge to get the materials, and that doesn't count finding rafters that need to be replaced I'm betting on at least half a dozen... And even if I make them into 'trusses' I'll be challenged to get long enough lumber to do the job... Plus the money. I'm surviving (barely) but I suspect that I don't want to start the job with less than $10,000 on hand even to do composite roof....
Well that ought to make everyone but my audience here pleased. Obviously with all of this on my mind my creative juices are a bit overwhelmed.
