Sporatic Blogging

We do not have Internet service at the house yet. When I called AT&T to cancel out other service, I asked them if they provided service at the new house. They said no. I have checked around with some other providers and options, but they all have a cap on how my GB you can use each month. I surf the Internet way too much to have a limit. I've always had the 2GB data plan for my phone and connected it to wifi at home. Well Kev had to up it to 3GB and this month I have already gone over and they have added another one for $10. Anyways back to finding an Internet provider. I decided to call AT&T again just to see what they said this time. The man informed me that my address was not valid and had not beed registered with the 911 addressing system. I tried to tell him that I did that months ago. when I got off the phone I called the 911 addressing office and talked to the guy that gave me my address. He explained that I was perfectly valid and that the AT&T man didn't really know what he was talking about. He gave me his direct number incase they needed him to explain it to them. I called AT&T back yesterday. This guy let me know the guy before didn't know what he was talking about and that the first woman didn't either. When you have  new construction they have to send out someone local to do an address validation. They look and see if they can provide you service. So, that's what I am waiting for now. It should take about a week. I have been bringing my laptop to school here and there and using their wifi. So I've back dated a few posts. Hopefully I will have access to Internet at home very SOON!

Football Merchandise

It's football season and Walmart has all their Razorback merchandise out. I was browsing the aisle the other day and saw these. I immediately thought whiskey! A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

House Exteriors

 I spend most of my free time these days staring at the freaking computer looking for ideas for our house. There is a site Houzz . It's my new addiction. If you haven't ever explored it check it out. You can type in anything dealing with houses and get thousands and thousands of pictures to browse through. I look at EVERYTHING and pin the things I like on Pinterest. This makes it so easy to go back and review favorites. I have several boards dedicated to various rooms and the outside of the house. My focus these days is on the exterior. Hopefully in the next two weeks I will have a house pad and be ready to frame the house. I  know that I want a metal roof (not sure what color), cedar columns, stone, and cedar siding/shingles. not sure about color combination, how much siding or how much stone, and the front porch and walkway (the front yard will be pretty steep). I'm on Spring Break this week so I plan on visiting some lumber yards so I get a closer look at certain materia...
