 -> room cabinet.  Tiny cho kitchen though!

 HN> When Anne and I were first married our apt in Hawaii
 HN> had the tiniest kitchen you'd imagine...two burner 

Oh I can imagine.  Ours in Hawaii was tiny too.  Had 4 burners on the stove but
the stove was a mini-type like in Japan at the cho.  In Hawaii, it was across
from the fridge so you could only open one of them at a time <grin>.  Small 
single sink with disposal.

 HN> lanai...everything that wasn't nailed down went off with the
 HN> tradewinds that came howling through!

Hahaha same thing in our place in Hawaii.  I opened the door once in the early
days there when Don was fluffing a pillow.  Oops.  It landed on the roof of 
one of the shorter buildings.

 HN> Yay for garage's!

Yes, and we can move about in there now.  We havent located the main computers
yet but we are closing in on what they probably are in.

 HN> Your back will remind you when you try to do too
 HN> much!

It did today.  Not one of my better days.  I took some of the pills though and 
it's easing up.

 -> Will do!  Thats why we stopped.  Sleeping on our GOOD bed last night was 
 -> wonderful!

 HN> Not many  things beat a good night's sleep!

Yes.  Oh, it's a sort of memory-foam one in a firmish type.
 
 -> Oh a loose end, I
 -> took the cultech to the bike guy here along the way to get our glasses. 

(snip)

 -> baskets.  Each will hold one standard paperbag size.  They are a bit
 HN> pricey
 -> here but the bike guy as i mentioned before, is doing my work for cost
 HN> of parts
 -> so overall, I can afford the baskets.

 HN> Look on craigslist. Around here there are 
 HN> lots of bike "trailers" that hook right below 
 HN> the seat and you can tow you're kids along 
 HN> behind while you do all the work.....they 
 HN> do a bang up job as a cargo container when 
 HN> the kids get big enough for their own set 
 HN> of wheels!

That would be a bit too much this time.  I need just the side baskets.  I don't
want so much weight that I cant stop fast due to momentum.

 ->  HN> I'm on a course of antibiotics for a few 
 ->  HN> weeks ....no beers for me! Even worse, no 
 ->  HN> wine and no scotch!!
 ->  
 -> Humm, been on antibiotics quite a few times.  Some are fine with
 HN> alcohol.

 HN> Both of these say in big red letters on the 
 HN> bottle....DO NOT USE WITH ALCOHOL, so I think 
 HN> that means no beers for a week or so...not a 
 HN> big thing with me but I do like a bit of scotch 
 HN> or a glass of wine once in a while!

Best to abide by that then.  Most of the time though, it's due to worries of 
liver issues.  Antbiotics give the liver a workout.  As far as i know, all of 
the antibiotics actually function fine with a little beer or something on the
side but it adds to the liver load.

My back pills say no alcohol also so I asked the Doc and she said it was only
because in combination, I'd get goofy and sleepy.  No actual harm if I wanted
to have 1-3 beers but strictly no driving even with 1 beer (legal limit for 
my size is 1).  The pills alone don't make me sleepy but if I have a beer, they
work really well except I get a little sleepy.

I always ask when something says no alcohol to know why.  In this case, it
merely accentuates the effect of alcohol a little bit and makes it a bit more 
effective at relaxing the back muscles.  (IE: Alcohol in moderation in a safe
environment is ok).
 
 HN> As it is I usually make my own spice blends 
 HN> and my teriyaki from scratch...that way I do 
 HN> get the flavor profile I want.

Got a recipe for your teriyaki blend?  I'd be interested in trying it.  I can't
find the spice blend packets I used in Japan where I could add my own sugar
amounts.
 
 ->  HN> AND she's coming home for Christmas!! Arriving the 19th!!
 ->  HN> I have only one thing to say! 
 ->  HN> NARF!!
 -> 
 -> ;-)  Have fun!

 HN> While we are used to her being away and on 
 HN> her own, and she is too...we really LIKE each 
 HN> other still! And it's good to be able to spend 
 HN> a little time with her! I confess, she'll be my 
 HN> little princess as long as I am alive!  Enjoy 
 HN> every minute with Charlotte that you can! They 
 HN> grow up SO fast!

I know.  Charlotte is 14 and changing every day a bit more into the lady she
will be as an adult.
