No news on mousecat0's father. I will work under the "no news is good news" assumption.

For the record, yes they are local. As in ~5 miles away. They are both in their mid-80s, and are one of the big reasons we have not moved, as we are the only family in the area.

I got home, sent mousecat0 to bed, and took the kids to CiCi's Pizza for dinner. When we got home, I tucked in the kids, cleaned the dinidng room a little ans started painting. The first coat is on, and it looks good. It definitely needs a second coat (especially the dark color), but I like the color combo.

Tomorrow, I switch out the sockets (none of the electrical sockets are grounded. EEP!) and do the second coat.

Now, I will finish my 32 oz glass of cold water and go to bed.

How can I go to sleep now??!??

Eye of the Tiger just came on!

Adrenalin pumping!

Bring on Apollo Creed! Clubber Lang! Ivan Drago! I can whip 'em all with one hand tied behind my back!

I know I've posted about this before. As corny as it sounds, I was *always* able to press an additional 25-40 lbs when this came on the radio when I was working out for football.
