this year I won something for the first time I can remember.&nbsp; Like a major prize!&nbsp; <br /> <br /> I won a Butter London Nail Polish from Ulta and 2 Beertenders (two separate contests).&nbsp; I remember entering for the nail polish but not the Beertender.&nbsp; <br /> <br /> Anyway the one of the Beertenders is set up in the kitchen and is usually dispensing perfect pints of Newcastle Brown Ale. <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ElZzUdZAO3M/Ttb1dytHTDI/AAAAAAAAHy0/EnfdKMMp5Bk/s1600/IMG_0813.JPG"

/></a></div> <br /> <br /> I haven't actually tried the Heineken kegs yet.&nbsp; I have never been a big fan of Heineken, it usually tastes a little skunked but I hear good things about it in the mini kegs.&nbsp; <br /> <br /> Unfortunately there are only 3 beers that make kegs that go in a Beertender.&nbsp; H, H Light, and Newcastle.&nbsp; Since Newcastle is my one of my favourite, it's pretty much the only reason I took it out of the box.&nbsp; I hope more beers start making draughtkegs.&nbsp; Until then, the selection stops it from being the Kuerig of beer.&nbsp; <br /> <br /> Since there I have been more apt to actually entering contests.&nbsp; They take 6 seconds and well sometimes you actually win!<br /> <br /> So I started keeping a list of places that have some good giveaways...<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.elledecor.com/home-sweepstakes">Elle Decor</a><br /> <a href="http://www.elle.com/Sweepstakes">Elle</a><br /> <a

style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"> <a href="http://localhost:55992/ded4dce561a130776c20bbe25927e296/image/ea7fbc2485ca3f4a.jpg"></a>Ever since the garage was built and a new drain added to the back downspout, during some heavy rains we get some water coming up the floor drain. &nbsp;Most of the time it's small, nothing much but some dirt and stuff coming up. &nbsp;But after the mother of all storms this summer, we just got sick of dealing with it anymore and called in a few "professionals". <br /> <br /> Since I am the PM at work, I get to be the PM at home too and call out the contractors for bidding. &nbsp;That's always such fun. &nbsp;I get a range of quotes and a lot of&nbsp;proposals&nbsp;for half-assed fixes but generally like when someone returns calls and actually knows what the problem is and the proper way to fix it. <br /> <br /> The proper way to fix issues with an old house is to fix them in a way that you don't potentially have the problem again. &nbsp;It is not running some hoses down the driveway. &nbsp;It's not snaking with a big snake only to have to snake in 6 months again. &nbsp;It is not paying for someone to do that and add a clean out and &nbsp;not recommend replacing the pipe while having the ground open. &nbsp; It is not giving the answer "ooooh I don't know about that" when you ask about laying a new pipe. &nbsp; So after getting a few quotes, I have one guy who gave the right answer. &nbsp;If it needs snaked and it's old, it should be replaced. &nbsp;<br /> <br /> The work was scheduled and that's when the project had what we call scope creep. &nbsp;Originally the plan was to replace where a known blockage was in the front yard, put a clean out T in and go to the wall of the house. &nbsp;Originally it didn't seem that UNDER the house was very bad. &nbsp;Unfortunately it was worse than expected and it too needed to be done. <br /> <br /> When I came home from work that day, just like in the Money Pit, it looked like we were testing missiles.</div> <div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"> <a href="http://localhost:55992/ded4dce561a130776c20bbe25927e296/image/7c41f1d6d099091a.jpg"><img alt=""

Oliver has taken to hanging out with us when we sit and read or watch TV. Here he is last night during his bath. Rub the buddha belly and make a wish.<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2WO6gn6ExPk/TpBnYSSx1lI/AAAAAAAAHpU/rXQDVSEPolw/s1600/SAM_7977.JPG"><img border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2WO6gn6ExPk/TpBnYSSx1lI/AAAAAAAAHpU/rXQDVSEPolw/s400/SAM_7977.JPG" /></a><br /><br />Elliott likes to hang out in bed only when cartoons are on or Formula one. He actually watches the TV. He is more fond of hanging out with me when I am doing something in the kitchen, getting ready in the morning in the bathroom, taking a shower. He has no fear of water and is quite happy to roll around in the wet tub after the shower is over. I expect someday, he's just going to come in during it. Today, he found that the bathroom sink makes a great bed. <br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-V92-fbzz8Rs/TpBnYkMGAeI/AAAAAAAAHpc/nFF-YnfzP4Q/s1600/SAM_7979.JPG"><img border="0" alt=""

Wouldn't you want to buy it? <br /> <br /> We did. <br /> <br /> Let see what we have done:<br /> Removed rotten wood gutters.<br /> New gutters<br /> Fixed holes in slate roof<br /> Removed falling chimney. Tuck pointed the other.<br /> Fixed improperly installed furnace. <br /> Painted LR and DR.<br /> Gutter helmets<br /> New screen doors and new side entry door.<br /> New porch roof (new wood and all)<br /> 200 Amp&nbsp;electrical&nbsp;box upgrade. Removed exterior wall knob and tube wiring.<br /> Painted 3rd floor, new electrical fixtures and completely rewired. It was so wrong I am surprised the house didn't burn down.<br /> Attic and wall insulation (BEST. THING. EVER!)<br /> Painted exterior and fixed rotten exterior parts. <br /> New garage. <br /> Painted all 3 bedrooms. Fixed all the weights in the windows. New window treatments.<br /> All new electrical fixtures on the 2nd floor.<br /> Lighted closets. (Best...thing....ever, after the insulation)<br /> Minor updates to the bathroom. Still needs a new tub/shower/floor.<br /> Wood flooring on second floor and both staircases refinished.<br /> Landscaping.<br /> <br /> Up next:<br /> New sewer pipe to house and partial fence. This year.<br /> Finish the hall and staircase painting.<br /> <br /> Yep I think I bought my house twice already.<br /> <br /> Up next in a few:<br /> Kitchen gut and re-do<br /> Bathroom finish.<br /> Add a 2nd bath. Maybe a 3rd in the basement.<br /> Add a&nbsp;sun porch&nbsp;over the kitchen.<br /> LR redo. New fireplace, mantel, add windows on the&nbsp;south side, built in bookcases.<br /> <br /> And if I get my way:<br /> Add to the yard by buying the spot next door.<br /> <br /> Ah the joys of being owned by a home.<br /> <div style="clear: both; text-align: CENTER;"><a href="http://picasa.google.com/blogger/" target="ext"><img align="middle" alt="Posted by Picasa" border="0" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/pbp.gif" style="-moz-background-clip: initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: initial; -moz-background-origin: initial; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; border: 0px none; padding: 0px;" /></a></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3973713-6527564924894187102?l=ruthie23.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/HeLFgPbT5vaGr3-fPbV_kKq39Qo/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/HeLFgPbT5vaGr3-fPbV_kKq39Qo/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/HeLFgPbT5vaGr3-fPbV_kKq39Qo/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/HeLFgPbT5vaGr3-fPbV_kKq39Qo/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Beerandclothing/~4/0LZRiE03eY8" height="1" width="1"/>ruthlesshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07935438825002187800noreply@blogger.com0http://ruthie23.blogspot.com/2011/09/7-years-ago.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3973713.post-37091242821072413232011-09-22T00:09:00.001-04:002011-09-22T00:09:31.119-04:002011-09-22T00:09:31.119-04:00<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><div style='position:relative;width:600px;height:600px;'><a href='http://www.polyvore.com/stormy_days_ahead/set?.embedder=1275782&amp;.mid=embed&amp;id=37343314'><img force='1' border='0' height='600' title='Stormy Days Ahead' src='http://embed.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-set/cid/37343314/id/EKy9otDk4BGCrd2_mpiKlg/size/y.jpg' alt='Stormy Days Ahead' width='600'/></a></div><br/><div><small><a href='http://www.polyvore.com/stormy_days_ahead/set?.embedder=1275782&amp;.mid=embed&amp;id=37343314'>Stormy Days Ahead</a> by <a href='http://ruthie23.polyvore.com/?.embedder=1275782&amp;.mid=embed'>ruthie23</a> featuring a <a href='http://www.polyvore.com/navy_handbag/shop?query=navy+handbag'>navy handbag</a></small></div><small><div style='padding-top:16px'><p style='clear:both;margin:0em;padding:0px'><a href='http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/thing.outbound?.embedder=1275782&amp;.mid=embed-imagelist&amp;id=40881112' rel='nofollow'><img force='1' height='50' style='border:1px solid #cccccc;margin:0 8px 8px 0;padding:2px;background-color:#ffffff;' src='http://ak2.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-thing/size/s/tid/40881112.jpg' hspace='4' align='left' width='50'/></a><div style='margin-bottom:8px'><a href='http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/thing.outbound?.embedder=1275782&amp;.mid=embed-imagelist&amp;id=40881112' rel='nofollow'>Mulberry jacquard dress</a><br/>$850 -

Have you ever been to the HOTR? It's hard to describe the HOTR to anyone who hasn't been there. I often begin that explanation with...so have you ever wondered why it would be like to fall down the rabbit hole? <br /> <br /> It's a house.<br /> And a museum.<br /> Of stuff.<br /> Lots and lots of stuff.<br /> <br /> And a lot of it moves.<br /> And plays really creepy music. </div><br /> <br /> <div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;">But first it starts as a house built by Alex Jordan who is a bit of an odd guy. He never goes anywhere but he collects a lot of stuff. And he builds an amazing&nbsp;labyrinthine&nbsp;house on the side of a hill to start to store it all. It's kind of like&nbsp;hoarders, if they collected really awesome stuff and displayed it all. He created this lookout point called the infinity room. It appears to go on forever. </div><br /> <br /> <div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Z2BmiK9C6rY/TmwihdRPaBI/AAAAAAAAHm0/Vvrx9Ghm2Zo/s1600/Nov%2B2004%2BMadison%2B109.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Z2BmiK9C6rY/TmwihdRPaBI/AAAAAAAAHm0/Vvrx9Ghm2Zo/s400/Nov%2B2004%2BMadison%2B109.jpg" /></a><br /> <br /> And if you visit in the winter, it's full of santas. A LOT of santas. </div><br /> <br /> <div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4F6ca5yj-24/Tmwih9G3gFI/AAAAAAAAHm8/equTVVnqQrs/s1600/Nov%2B2004%2BMadison%2B111.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4F6ca5yj-24/Tmwih9G3gFI/AAAAAAAAHm8/equTVVnqQrs/s400/Nov%2B2004%2BMadison%2B111.jpg" /></a><br /> <br /> The house is cool. Asian meets prarie style. Lots of low ceilings, wood, stained glass. And it winds and twists all over the hillside. </div><br /> <br /> <div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Mu2r6447rF0/TmwiiHmBSRI/AAAAAAAAHnE/cl_CMAT3AiI/s1600/Nov%2B2004%2BMadison%2B007.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Mu2r6447rF0/TmwiiHmBSRI/AAAAAAAAHnE/cl_CMAT3AiI/s400/Nov%2B2004%2BMadison%2B007.jpg" /></a> </div><br /> <br /> <div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0fPXVcy_kTc/TmwiiuLj_6I/AAAAAAAAHnM/ZjtQGV_7on4/s1600/Copy%2Bof%2BNov%2B2004%2BMadison%2B010.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0fPXVcy_kTc/TmwiiuLj_6I/AAAAAAAAHnM/ZjtQGV_7on4/s400/Copy%2Bof%2BNov%2B2004%2BMadison%2B010.jpg" /></a><br /> <br /> The house is a house with a kitchen, bath, and with a fair amount of collections of stuff.</div><br /> <br /> <div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DGoiBRnUzTg/Tmwii1xLvHI/AAAAAAAAHnU/zSK75-T5ISk/s1600/Nov%2B2004%2BMadison%2B014.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DGoiBRnUzTg/Tmwii1xLvHI/AAAAAAAAHnU/zSK75-T5ISk/s400/Nov%2B2004%2BMadison%2B014.jpg" /></a><br /> <br /> And santas.

It also plays music. And that's the winter time tour. If you go in the summer, there is a whole other section of catwalks through a giant organ, more creepy music. <br /> <br /> Seriously if you want a trip without the acid, go here.
