Extreme Housecleaning Open Thread with some Bawderlands Dos gaming fun

, , , , , 0

I’ve got nothing much to blog about this evening. I’ve been doing some housecleaning lately since our landlord is coming over tomorrow at 4 o’ clock in the afternoon just to inspect inside our house to see if anything looks clean. I got all the dusting and carpet brushing out of the way, and I also wiped down my computer desk after giving it a good dusting. So now we just need to do a few more chores around the house such as clean the bathrooms and wipe up any dirty spots on the kitchen floor then it’ll be good to go.

Either way, I was playing some more Borderlands 2 lately and I got myself some more latest weaponry after spending a buttload of keys over at Sanctuary, and I also found a brand new Commando skin customization from a dead chubby spiderant located in The Dust:

I tried out that skin color customization on my Commando character and it looked quite fantastic. 🙂

Sunday House Cleaning Open Thread

, , , , , 0

My family and I were doing some extreme house cleaning this evening because we wanted our house to be really tidy so that the inside of our house doesn’t look too messy when we get back from our road trip. I’ve been cleaning up the kitchen floor, plus I brushed the carpets in the upstairs hallway and my bedroom.

I think I’ll focus on brushing the carpets in our living room tomorrow so that Papa Smurf can hit them with the vacuum. So right now I still got laundry that needed to be caught up once I’ve done all my fun stuff. Oh, and speaking of laundry, I should consider washing my bedding tomorrow because I don’t want dirty smelly bedding before I leave on our road trip with my family.

Monday Evening Open Thread: More Work in the Backyard

, , , , , , 0

Papa Smurf and I went out in our backyard this evening and started grabbing a huge mound pinecones and tree branches into separate buckets so we can load the buckets of pinecones in our van and haul them to the dump on the 7th this month and then use the branches including parts of a destroyed dog house as part of the fire pit experiment.

Either way, we didn’t get all the pinecones and branches but we sure got a lot of them so far. We’ll continue looking for more backyard waste and hopefully finish our job either tomorrow or the next day.

Thursday Afternoon Open Thread: Movin’ on up!

, , , , , , 0

San_San and I went to go see our friendly family member this afternoon to help move stuff from their old house and shed to their new house and then clean their old house up afterwards. After we got our job done over there, Papa Smurf and I went to a lumber yard and picked up some 2×4 wood so that he can work on them by drilling a few screws in proper positions, saw a few of them in half, etc.

Then after we went home we had some delicious chicken quesadillas for dinner. It was delicious

Either way, it sure was nice to see our friendly elderly family members once again. 🙂 Open thread!

Sunday Afternoon Open Thread

San_San, Tomala and I went to go see an elderly family member of ours at their house this afternoon, and they were giving us a simple request that needs to be done which is move just about everything to one area around their old house because one of their family members is dying miserably. 🙁 Either way, before we get it started we went to go visit a young female friend of ours at her house and have her help us move stuff around and whatnot.

Took us nearly three hours to get our job done but we’ll wait on moving all the stuff including some from the shed to a new location which is the house that our elderly family member lives either tomorrow or the day after. It sure was nice to help other people move things around. 😀

Cleaning up the backyard

, 0

My dad and I were cleaning up our backyard today because we want to let our cat Morty outside. But we won’t let him out yet, because he always gets lost. One time, my dad found him in the culvert over the fence, and he’s tired of trying to catch him.

I helped him rake the dead brown grass while he was dealing with the hollies, and I also helped him fill garbage bags with dead grass, dead leaves, twigs, branches, etc.

I took pictures of our yard work:

We still need to get it done though. 🙂
