Shelter

Hi everyone, we had a little incident this week. I got locked out of my home. Grandad thought it would be a good idea to have a spare shelter to keep me out of the cold. So this morning we built a little place for Zia and me to wait for the spare keys.
Around the back of the dumpster we filled a shopping cart full of blankets and food. I thought maybe just hide a key, but Grandad thought this was a better idea.
Then it was off to plaster the garage. Mom isn't going to be happy, the plaster is all over me.
These trowels are much heavier than they look.
And don't worry about the staging, it seemed very sturdy.
See you next week
Love Jack.
PS Sorry Zia, Ashley should have known better than to tell Grandad.

Boarding

Hi people, I had a busy day today, first we had to hang the blueboard
The screw gun took a little getting used to.
But the funnest part was cutting out for the recessed lights

When we finished that we went to lunch, boarding makes you hungary, I ate a whole grilled cheese by myself.
The rest of the day was playing outside in the snow

It sure is cold today
Hope you all have a good week see you next time.
Love Jack

A day with Auntie Ashley

Hello everybody, I am pretty excited to have had my picture taken with a United States Senator's daughters. What an exciting thing?
This week I got to go see Auntie Ashley's new furniture. At first I had to sit like a good little boy keeping my feet off the furniture and my sticky fingers up.
But when Auntie left the room I relaxed a little. Grandad made me giggle when I had my feet up.
Wheres the clicker? I could take a nap right here.
Then we went to lunch at Bertuccis.
And Mom, guess what kind of pizza I had?
Your right I had your favorite the "SPORKY"
And then I went to work on Aunties. It wasn't as good as the Sporky, no cheese whats up with that?
See you next week

Brown for Senate

It has been awhile, and I apologize. With all the holidays, I have been all over the place and nobody would let me use their new computers (sticky fingers I guess). So lets start off with Happy New Year.
We started off at Grandads, and I was able to read some of my new books. Then it was right off to work.
Hey, Uncle Pat, wiring isn't so tough, the wires are all color coded. Once you get the hang of it, its easy

Then I did a little siding with Dad, I thought that was cold
But by far the best part of my day was meeting Scott Brown's two daughters, Ayla and Arianna. We got to stand out in the cold with them.
I wasn't prepared to make an endorsement today, but I will go out on a limb. Anybody with daughters that nice has to do the right thing in Congress.
Grandad says we finally got rid of Ted, Now let's fill that Senate seat with someone with integrity, after 47 years of his murdering, womanizing, and games down in Palm Beach. we deserve that. Barney's seat is next.

Thats enough of Grandads rant. He can get his own blog.
So vote for Scott Brown because his daughters are nice. Check out his website here.
See you all next time

Christmas 2009

Merry Christmas everyone, We made a quick detour to Grandad's house. All I wanted to do was relax and enjoy the family.
Grandad wanted to plow snow,
and put up birdhouses.
Bring in firewood thru the back door, where's the deck anyway.
Finally we got to build snowmen and go sledding.
By the time we left I was half asleep.


Hope everybody has a good Christmas break and a Happy New Year
Love Jack

Cold weather has hit

I am not ready for winter it is freezing out. We made one stop down to Great Uncles Mark's office and that was enough.
I got to empty out the golf ball display, and then it was off to get warm.
The flashlight kept me busy for awhile but I really wanted to go out and play in the snow.
Grandad didn't think it was warm enough so he told me to play dominoes instead.
When Charlie accussed me of cheating I was angry, I didn't know dogs could tell the difference between eight and seven.She is smarter than I thought she was. I couldn't persuade her you can put a eight up against a seven. Still I didn't like the way she looked so hurt. I know I could have fooled Bailey with it.
Maybe Global warming will kick in again so we can go back outside. See you all next week Love Jack

PS Maybe I will dig into the secular progressive movement going on in my town next week about the cross on the Fire Station.

Plumbing

It's the week after Thanksgiving and I know I skipped last week, totally my Mom's fault. There is no other excuse. So Happy belated Thanksgiving everyone. This week I am back at Grandad's so I know it won't be a relaxing day. We spent most of the day running around doing nothing but still moving. My first assignment of the day was to put all these pieces of pipe together with no leaks.I studied these pieces for awhile and maybe Grampy could help me, but I think I need a right hand estabrook to finish the job correctly.
My next job was to install the frig. I can't believe how heavy it was.
Then Grandad told me to pace off a hundred feet, I don't know why but I did it anyways.
And finally the one picture I got out of Thanksgiving Day weekend was a walk with my Dad.
See you all next week, Go Panthers, win the Superbowl tomorrow!!

Belated Veteran's Day

Hi everyone, I am back with Grandad this week. He caught me off guard when he yelled at me for not mentioning the veterans last week.
I don't know if he was more mad at me or Grammie. But, I guess he wasn't impressed with the rocks we visited. So anyway I found a picture of my Dad's cousin David. So here's to the veteran's I forgot to mention last week.Pretty impressive outfit there David, we could have used you to watch for Al Kida in Grandad's front yard. With that uniform on nobody would have ventured into his yard, Al, Steve, or Fred

When we finished my tribute to the veterans, Grandad took me to Indian Rock with Great Aunt Susan. Once again all I remember is whining " isn't this too far into the woods?". Grandad was getting mad but he kept on going farther and farther into the woods.
When we finally got there it wasn't much to look at, but I could hear the heart beat.

I tried to measure for the kithchen at Grandad's but he took my tape away.
The afternoon was beatiful so me and Great Papa picked up the rest of the acorns. Now I know why Grandad is so intense, "pay attention to what your doing Jack, turn the wheel, you missed these ones," I was waiting for him tell me to take off my glasses.

See you all next week
Love Jack
