What a week

Had a busy Thursday - I had the day off and worked on a big project- had bee's in the fireplace flu - they had a Hive completely blocking the intake. I will post picture of it soon. I started the project about 9 am got done at 2 pm- It was a pain getting the cap off. it was ty-vacked in and the J-channel was holing it in, and it is about 12 feet off the uneven ground . I backed the truck up and put my little giant ladder on it and went to work Up and Down up and Down at least 50 times, I had to scrape and pull the hive pieces out with a bent up cloths hanger - then Vacuum with the Kirby then wipe with soap and water and that was not easy, i left the inner flu connected to the cap other wise I would have had to buy some high heat sealer that is hard to work with and the n reconnecting it would also be a challenge with those heights, and I would have eventually needed help, so I maneuvered around it which was difficult, all in all it is all back to norm all, I will be covering tit next spring when I turn the pilot off, the manf. told me to leave the pilot light on and it wont happen- But that has to be costly leaving it on for 6-8 months until we use it again.
Anyway I got the porch furniture put away , my motorcycle down stairs, and a few other things done in the garage, I also worked on cleaning up the winter storage shed, made room for my dads wood splitter in the out shed and got hoses and sprinklers ready for winter too. The my sister Ang came over for supper. Jen made cheesy chicken tortilla soup- it was good.

Friday after work we went to the Perham Fire Dept BINGO at the Lakeside in Perham, I won a bingo but draw a 5 because there were two other bingo's also. I got chips and licorice- Jen won a door prize 5 coffees at wild goose and a $25 gift certificate a cottages crap shop in Perham.
Had a good time- Travis and Heidi Happel won a lamp and a turkey breast, so we dropped it off at their place on the way home. Grace talked the whole way home after spending the evening at Grandma and grandpa Dolls.
It looks to be a busy Saturday I am working and have a few appointments in the morning - I will be heading to Tony's Y Not party at his place in Moorhead later tonight- Jen and grace are not going because Jen is on Call for Emanuel this weekend-
Enjoy--
