Well, dear, sweet, gentle reader, I apologize for my absence the last couple of days. I was on vacation and did not have much time to write. Before you go getting all jealous, I was not at some exotic locale sipping fruity beverages with crazy names and umbrellas impeding my drinking ability; nor was I finding myself in some serene, remote, mountainous setting.
I was, in fact, at home dealing with the issues of owning a home and in my case, a ninety five year old home. Yes, the home is indeed older than I. It is also a lovely home that needed a little repair. I use the term “little” loosely as I had to replace the upstairs AC and the hot water heater. And, to be fair, I did not have to do it myself but I did have to avail myself to the schedule of the valiant workers who brought tidings of cool air and hot water.
I’d like to give a gratuitous plug and a big shout out to Aire Serve Heating and Air Conditioning of Fort Worth and Benjamin Franklin Plumbing for their solid work and expertise.
With all of that being said, today’s Mixed Tape Monday theme is Home!
Enjoy and welcome back to the time waste that is my bog!
