I don't know about you but this week for some reason has felt like it has taken for ever and I for one is glad that it is over. I went to see Post 284 play last night but they had a tough night falling to Powhatan 9-5, they just didn't play well last night. They will play Post 206 tonight at home in the losers bracket. All three of Nascars top series are racing in Indianapolis this weekend, the trucks and Busch cars are at IRP while the Nextel cup cars will be at the Brickyard. Work here at the house is continuing to progress and it looks like things are starting to take shape. The fumes from the floor finish yesterday have left me with a bit of a headache last night, however the fumes have dissipated this morning. In a bit of sad news from the sports world Wake Forest basketball coach Skip Prosser died of an apparent heart attack after jogging yesterday, he was just 56. MICKEY

glad to see the api going down
I'm really surprised they let you stay with those fumes, Mickey! I've always heard you had to leave the house when you had floors done.
Al and Donna's api will be high after this week
We told him to leave. He could go to MEMa of your house. They have to put two more coats on it when everything is finished
Come on over, Mickey! Actually, Julianne, Jacob and I will be in DC with Jason for a couple of days next week, so there will be even more room than usual over here!
