Sunday House Cleaning Open Thread
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.
DIY Nature Experimenting Open Thread
Yesterday I’ve been working on a DIY nature experiment lately:
What I did there is I used an empty cocoa powder container, fill it up with some water and then carefully add some seeding dandelions one at a time without knocking any parachute seeds off the puffballs so that the dandelions will be quenched with water in order to last a little longer like all other flowers. 
Oh, and speaking of nature, I was out back pulling up a few more weeds and picked up a lot of fallen leaves off the ground just to tidy up our backyard a bit. Then after I got all that done my family and I enjoyed some exquisite submarine sandwiches that we ordered from a Subway restaurant. At least the food from Subway is far better than the food from McDonald’s.
Open thread, ladies and gents!
Last Open Thread of the Month
I have managed to complete my nature-related collection earlier this afternoon after pulling up some unwanted weeds and fake grass out back especially the ones from yesterday that my father mowed down some tall grass with the weed wacker. It was a collection of seeding dandelion puffballs that I carefully stored them all in my small rectangular wooden box without knocking the parachute seeds loose, and so far I counted a total of 24 puffballs. Here’s a picture of what I’m talking about:
So now I’ve got a good batch of white fuzzy puffy bubbles in a box. 
Anyways, my family and I enjoyed some delicious hot dogs that my mother cooked up for dinner since we had hamburgers for yesterday’s dinner. My compliments to the chef that hot dogs and hamburgers are both exquisitively delicious as long as they’re homemade.
After I got done eating dinner I went down in the garage to help my father mount two fittings from under the Mustang while I move to the passenger’s side of it and turn the tubes to the right several times in order to complete the process. Either way, we got all that car work done and out of the way for the night.
Open Thread! Have at it, ppl!
Thursday Evening Open Thread + A Lil’ Bit of TF2 Fun Time
Today’s weather turned out to be nice than last couple days ago. My sister Tomala made some delicious shrimp pasta for dinner this evening along with cooked vegetables which are diced bell peppers, onions and corn. Unfortunately I didn’t have a picture of it because I was too busy enjoying my food, but it was really good food by the way.
After I got done eating dinner I decided to have fun by playing TF2, and I have sold enough garbage to purchase some new stuff from the Steam market:
I’ve had such a good time playing around with various people on random online community servers tonight. Enjoy this open thread!
Thursday Evening Open Thread
Sorry for not posting yesterday, I was too busy making my comic project and other things. Either way, this evening turned out to be decent today. I’ve been doing some bathroom floor cleaning upstairs and downstairs lately because it’s a dirty job and it needs to be done, and I have also done the bathroom sinks too. So now I’m going to have my Dad bleach the inside of both upstairs and downstairs bathroom toilets because they’re starting to get dirty and smelly, and after I got all my bathroom work done my family and I chowed down on some burgers and french fries that we ordered from a fast food restaurant for dinner. That was some good finger-licking fast food.
Oh, while I was watching TV earlier this afternoon I whipped out my camera and snap’d a cute photo of Morty hiding under the blanket on the couch like he always does:
Sunday Evening Open Thread
I’ve been helping out Papa Smurf wax our family van last few days ago, and so far we waxed and buffed off most of the van. We’ll plan on continuing our wax job tomorrow because Papa needs to make his back less painful.
Oh, last night we had a short power outage while I was in the garage with Papa. So Papa and I walked outside and went down the sidewalk to see what’s going on, and sure enough it was a power line transformer that blew up over at Memory Lane. It’s a good thing there was a backup transformer because if that fails too then we won’t have power for a long time. But yeah, that was really freaky when that happened.
Yet Another Evening Open Thread
Instead of continuing my comic that I made on a piece of paper a few month ago, I decided to create a new one using the Paint program and my mouse because my tablet wasn’t working for some reason, but it’ll be fixed eventually. So far I’ve got about one third of the project done, and I apologize for not putting one up from a couple years back. Oh, and I also apologize for not posting last couple days ago because I was too busy getting my work done like getting the last of the bark and pinecones in two separate buckets out of our backyard so that we can put down grass seed if the wind’s not too breezy.
Either way, once I fill in all the columns of what I’ve been thinking about on my comic project then I’ll come up with some good sentences of what people say from their call-outs.
But for now, I put together my old Borderlands 2 video footage and some nice text to create this ‘Please Wait’ screen picture that I made for Tomala on her latest live stream of that game:
Wednesday Evening Open Thread: Steam Summer Sale Edition
I’ve got nothing good to report on other than the Summer Sale is going on right now on Steam. My Dad and I should be able to get enough empty soda pop cans so that either tomorrow or the next day after we can deposit them and receive the money so that I can use that to buy some Steam games that fit me like a glove.
Open Thread, my friendly Slackers! Feel free to post comments on what Steam games you’d like to get while they’re still on sale.
Monday Evening Open Thread: Backyard Work Edition
Sorry for not posting yesterday, I’ve been too busy having a good time playing some community servers in TF2. Either way, today’s weather was really nice this evening. I decided to continue my yard work mission in our backyard with a red-handled screwdriver from our tool shed in the garage, and I used it to pull up a lot of unwanted weeds scattered in different locations from yesterday and today. Then I placed all the weeds into the compost pile used for gardening afterwards.
It sure was fun trying to pulling up weeds off the ground, especially crabgrass because those are really hard to get. Oh, and speaking of weeds, here’s a picture of another seeding dandelion that I found in our backyard next to the chain-like fence between our backyard and our neighbors’:
This seeding dandelion I found is two feet tall, and it has a lot of tiny parachute seeds that form a white good-sized puffball just like the previous one that I found almost three weeks ago:
Yep, I sure love those kind of weed flowers so much.
Yet Another Afternoon Open Thread
Last night we had two of our friendly cousins coming over to our house for a visit. We had such a great time together from simple conversations with my family to eating meatloaf for dinner along with some salad and green beans. It was a super excellent dinner for the whole family. 
I even showed our cousins some of my artwork via my camera including Little Red Riding Hood getting baked, a young couple eating potato chips while getting stoned, etc. I gotta say, they both like my artwork so much. It sure was nice to see our friendly cousins (again).
I went out back with my Dad this nice but breezy afternoon and didn’t do really much yard work because of heavy winds. We were spreading yard stones on the entrance to our backyard, and tried to avoid breathing stone dust while it’s breezy heavily out here. We decided to call it quits after picking a few more pinecones because we just don’t want to get dirt in our eyes in this breezy weather, and every time I try lift the dirt the wind blows it towards my eyes.
