    When you said, "well, hopefully not EVERY kind of blow-up thing you can imagine" I had to laugh. The dead-pan delivery was spot-on.

    It might be a good idea to start tool boxes for your kids for when they move out on their own. We did this with my son and daughter and they loved fixing things around our house and working on the cars.

Every adventure is just that and they all are interesting and love to be invited along ...I am also glad you took and even wore gloves and did not get as an acute and startling stash of stuff this time and I feel better about that ,,too. All you do is usually centered for all the right reasons and that is always priceless . Thank you for sharing and giving others a chance to now get something they otherwise may not have gotten .

This all got bad right before you moved into your new home and now your channels' never shown! Notifications never came, they were shut-off several times but not by me! I know it may seem trivial to some viewers but when you are alone 24/7 nearly 365, good people like Alex and his family are a blessing and a bright spot to have in your life, they are for me anyway!

    It was hard to tell since you didn't show them that well but those wooden chairs could possibly be Adirondack, very common here around South Carolina beaches/lakes, depending on the quality and what you want to invest on refurbishing them they could be worth around 150 USD each if not more.
