HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Looks like beautiful weather across our region. Could not ask for better weather, actually. UNLESS you wanted snow. 
It does appear that a severe weather outbreak is possible next Wednesday into Thursday. We will have to keep an eye on that situation. It has been awhile since we had signficant weather to deal with.
Kristy sent me a photo of Lucy - down in Florida.
Bad news out of Mayfield…this is where Deena works. Hope they don’t go under.

We met with Don this morning. We have our second set of finished house plans. Hopefully we are very close to starting on this project.

Well, come next Tuesday we will be talking about the election. I, for one, will be glad that it is over. I think we are all tired of hearing about Obama and McCain. It will be interesting to see if it is a blow out or a close race. Could go either way. The media loves Obama and has Obama winning. Go figure.
We meet with Don tomorrow. He should have the footprint finished for the house. Then we can start! We will see how tomorrow goes. Everything is moving along…slowly.
I had a nice lunch with Sue today. Flamingo Row - spelled that right? Anyway, always nice to catch up with Sue!
Not much else to report.

Well, it would have been an absolutely stunning day outside, if I had not had to go to the dentist! So, that sort of messed the entire day up. Slept most of the afternoon and am feeling better now. :) It appears that we may have a messy week ahead for weather. Sunny skies today will be replaced with increasing clouds on Tuesday and rain by Wednesday Night. Then, a colder air mass will push into the region - this will bring a chance of drizzle, light rain, and rain for Friday into Sunday. CHILLY - could be the word. Raw? Rain and 40s?
Looks that way for now at least. I don’t believe we will have any severe weather, not enough instability.
Started on chapter seven in school. Few more chapters to go! School ends the second week of December. At least until next semester! That will begin in January.
We worked on a few small house changes today. I talked with Don, who is designing the house. I believe we will have our last meeting on Friday - the last meeting at least in order to prepare the footprint. Tony will then take that design to the guys who are doing the footer. From there we can start the house.
Stopped by my dads apartment yesterday. Tony and Deena were there along with the kids. My dad is working on redoing the inside of the building.

Nice day out! Beautiful weather. Temperatures were perfect today. My kind of weather.
We went up to the farm this afternoon and tried to figure out exactly where we want the house footprint to be. We put some flags up. I think we have it just about figured out. Hopefully we will be able to start soon. Can’t be soon enough! We are several months behind schedule. :)

Well, we closed on Glen Argo today. I am the proud owner of a whole bunch of keys. lol Now we have to figure out what the keys go to!
Midterm grades are in - 96 on Thermal and 90 on Physical. So, better than I thought! I am happy with those. Hopefully the rest of the semester will not be as difficult as the first part of the semester.
Going with my dad tomorrow. Need to run errands and pick up some things for the new apartments.
Hoping it rains…so far not a drop - at least here in Lone Oak. Maybe later tonight.

Tomorrow we close on Glen Argo. The whole set includes a number of apartments, couple of duplexes and a four-plex. This will keep us busy fo awhile. :) My dad is going to move into one of the apartments and help take care of them. We will definitely need the help. These are in Paducah. Total of 7 buildings - 34 units. Great location - few blocks from the mall. Also close to where the new college is being built.
We also meeet with Don tomorrow - FOR THE FINISHED BLUEPRINTS OF THE HOUSE! Kick up the party!!!!! :) Very excited. Next we have to take the plans to the guys who are doing the footer. Then they can start! The first part of the building process will be the footer - the tornado shelter - and perhaps one or two other concrete areas (not sure where I am putting my antenna tower/weather instruments).
Cloudy today. We need rain. HOPING for some in the next 48 hours. It sure is muggy. Especially warm for this time of the year.
We were today looking for Halloween Costumes. Joey found one, but mine was out of stock. Soooo…we will go look again tomorrow. I am going for the cowboy look. :)
Kristy sent me a new photo of Lucy. She looks pretty much in control!!!!

Midterms are over. I get my grades on Wednesday. Then I can move on! The rest of the semester hopefully won’t be as difficult. It has been a long few weeks!
Nice weather - we could use rain, though. Temperatures have been VERY warm for this time of the year. Hoping we get some showers on Tuesday or Wednesday.
I met with Don today. We will finish the plans on Wednesday. Tony is calling the footer guys. Hope they can start soon. It appears we are done with the plans. :) Just need to get them in hand. Don is doing a great job…so I think we will wrap this up on Wednesday. Course, there is a lot more in the way of decisions after we get the plans. At least we can start, though!!!!
Oh, and gas today - 15 gallons for less than 2 bucks!!!
