Janie decided the kitchen floor was way too gross.  She did all the work.  I (Brad) did a little troubleshooting and posed with the nail gun.  Stewart helped too.

Gordo

paris_20081227_004There are a lot of cats in our neighborhood.  We call this one Fatty.  He used to hang out on top of the pile of carpet padding in the garage (the door doesn’t quite close all the way).  You can’t tell from the photo, but he’s really, really fat.  We were worried that we had a pregnant cat in our garage, but don’t worry, he’s just morbidly obese.  I finally started throwing away all the old carpet so his perch is gone and he doesn’t come around as often.

1/4″ to 3/8″ Adapter

Filed under: construction, done! — bradandjanie @ 2:13 pm

paris_20081227_014Janie bought a paint stirrer to stir the 5 gallons of white paint we bought for painting the kitchen, trim, etc.  But when she tried to use it she found that the stirrer is 3/8″.

paris_20081227_016Our vintage drill (a hand-me-down from Dad)…

paris_20081227_017…is 1/4″.

paris_20081227_015So after failing to find some sort of 1/4″ to 3/8″ adapter, Janie taped a 1/4″ drill bit to the stirrer with packing tape.  And it worked!  Low rpms only, please.

Our paratrooper

Filed under: done! — bradandjanie @ 8:37 pm

paris_20081216_088This is our kitchen sink light pull/wedding ring holder.  It works so well, our wedding rings spend more time here than on our fingers.  Man, that wall is disgusting.

Who has no arms and legs and lies on the floor?

paris_20081220_098Some people have their cats declawed so they don’t scratch the furniture.  Stewart doesn’t really scratch our furniture, but we went one step further and had his legs removed.
