Seal it

I was thinking last night, what if you spray foam sealer on mold/wood.  That would fix the crack and also seal the mold in so it couldn’t grow.  I mean there would be no water source and no oxygen so in theory it sounded great.  I took to Google and found a product that claimed to put down an antimicrobial barrier.  It’s not foam sealer but rather a spray on liquid.  I found it at Lowe’s and jotted over and picked up a bottle, dropped $11.  Came home sprayed down the wood and got it wet.  It’s dry now, the second step is to go in with a brush and loosen up all of the mold and then put down another coating to further protect the wood.  Step 2 will take a while before I get to it.  That doesn’t sound like something I personally want to it.  I mean if I am forced to then I will. 

I still have yet to hear from the gutter repair guy, so I will have to give him a ring.  I’d like to give him his money but also get his pricing for what he thinks the job will cost to fix it his way.  I am inclined to lean towards him.  I had a chat with the boss about the demo guy and he said they drink your money and destroy your home.  It’s a lot of hooey.  That maybe and it sounds like truth.  I just hope I don’t make a mistake here. 

The house is clean, I chased Marv out of my room with the vacuum.  Not something I want to do but I told him I had to get my room done this weekend.  I skipped it last weekend and since all of the cats hang out in there I need to sweep. 

Lit some candles.  The basement has Yankee #5, Bedroom has Yankee Stress Relief and the Living Room has Yankee Strawberry Ice.  It’s just something to liven things up.  I stopped at the wall of scent in the grocery store this morning and considered buy Febreze plugs but I talked myself out of it.  I have a small fortune invested in candles and I love them.  Problem is I don’t want to part with them, I just want to acquire more.  That’s how you wind up with a bunch of candles and no place to put them. 

I stopped off for breakfast and was talking with one of the regulars.  He was concerned because I was a little late.  I was up early enough to be on time but I opted for a morning orgasm and that put me behind.  He said something like I thought you ran off with a wild woman.  I told him that will never happen.  He said why, I said I don’t like women.  He didn’t get the fact that I am gay but I just rolled with it.  He is an older guy and friendly but I don’t know if he has an open mind and I really don’t want to find out.  I was telling the waitress about it and I guess she didn’t realize I was gay either but I wound up getting a free milkshake for coming out.  Hell if I knew that I would have made it a large instead of a small shake.  It was damn good too, it was the Oreo Double Stuff.  Momma the best shake I have had in a long time. 

Since I felt pretty good about my milkshake I have been holding something in for the grocery store.  Today I let it out.  The checker I usually go to was on and she had someone who just laid out a flurry of items.  I mean the belt was full.  She was concentrating and I just walked up and said can we speed it up here in a loud voice and I said it like I was angry.  I got her attention and she said hi.  The lady who’s order she was working on didn’t know what to make of it.  Hell what’s life if you can’t have some fun once and a while. 

The best part was my fasting blood sugar was at 95 this morning.  That’s damn low for me.  I was surprised I was still able to walk.  I felt really good so I rewarded myself with a milk shake.  I know not the smartest thing to do. 

I got the leaf guards in the gutters in the back.  Need one more pack of 4 that will give me one for each gutter.  Need that leaf blower attachment and then I can go to town.  Another job I really don’t want to do but need to.  I haven’t ordered either item but will be doing so soon.  I was surprised at the amount of leaves that had fallen already.  It’s only going to get worse with time. 

I got a car wash and opted for the deluxe version.  My car once again smells like someone crapped in it.  It’s the bug remover.  It does a great job but it smells to high heaven.  I should be burning a Yankee Candle in the garage and then another once inside of my car but that just doesn’t sound safe and things would probably go sideways.  I don’t need that.  I still have some packing to do at the office. 

I started watching this movie on Cyber Security last night on Amazon.  I am really interested in it but it lulled me to sleep.  I figured oh I was just wore out.  Nope I tried to finish it and the same results.  Holy crap I’ll have to keep this handy for those nights when I just can’t sleep.  Actually it’s kind of funny because there is a show I watch on occasion when I want to fall asleep and it’s all about Cyber Security.  The guy who does it just gets on a tangent like one of my co-workers and it puts me to sleep because I get bored. 

Need to shave, fix some dinner, prep for Monday and relax and take in more TV.  It’s only 4:30 and I have lots of time on my hands.  I’ve been piddling around with ye old computer and have managed to pass away a couple hours.  I am going to pry myself away before I loose track of time and wind up spending my evening here. 

Here’s to a great week ahead, I hope that everything goes well for everyone.  Low stress, quick moving days and plenty of good food and time to relax.  Talk with you folks again soon.
