What's going on?

Several people have asked since I've been kinda quiet 'round here.

The short synopsis:

• We're in the midst of the worst bedtime issues we've ever had. DaGirl won't go to sleep before 9pm and gets up by 7am. DaBoy is crashing by 7:30 but is usually squawking between 1 and 3am for a diaper change. This is making it hard to get anything but most essential of things done.
• The Exploder is done. This past weekend we got some compost for the garden from the dump. Compared to previous loads I've put in the trailer, this was light, but WOW did it not want to pull it or stop it. After we unloaded the trailer it didn't want to start. So I had to do the old floor it, turn the key, dump the clutch and lay strips in the yard (ok maybe laying strips is a bit of an overstatement) and leave it the field to contemplate its future for the night.
  
• The Truck is now registered. The Exploder is not.
  
• Busy as hell at work. I've sent prints out for two systems this week, I expect parts to come back for another next week and have had to consult on the assembly of yet another project. Not to mention the number of times I've been interrupted by bosses to discuss future projects. We are not hurting for work.
• The patio at home is one step (many stones really) closer to being done:-)
• We can't get contractors to take our money. Funny eh? The garage door people were the only ones to set up a time, stick to it and get the job done. The fence people have finally set up a semi-firm date of next Wednesday but that's taken over a month to get worked out. We need a lot more done but apparently we didn't get on the merry-go-round early enough for people to want our business.
• In the past 25 work days I have taken a car 3 times to get there. My pants don't fit right anymore ;-)
  

That's all for now.
