I, the Admiral, am fighting with the ants that decided to visit us. Every drawer and cupboard I open I see those little things scurrying. I have emptied the drawers and cupboards in the galley. Washed everything down and sprayed. I don't know where they are coming in at. I had to spray the aft deck and the Captain sprayed the lines and hoses going to the boat. I think we should get those things that trap the ants. I am spraying the bed before I put the clean sheets on it. I don't want to be woke with them crawling on me. Well, I had better back in the galley and get supper on. Talk to you guys later.

Another project

well this morning I slept in until 8am, which was a job, cause at 430 my eyes flew open, I just said no way and every 30 minutes my eyes would fly open again, finally got up at 8, turn on the computer and realized that the shelve above the hard drive had collapsed down, so shut it down and tear down everything and move, desk, ac unit so I could access the hard drive in its cabinet, and every thing in it to, reworked the shelve and the surround sound system for the rear state room, refasten the shelve with longer screws, then re route all the cables and the hard drive location and the surround sound system, then reset up the desk and printer, all done and went to power the system and it would not, power was not the problem, the hard driver just refuse to run. it 45 minutes to get it to work, finally it did, what a relief, as usual Pam had a lot of patience with me and not once did she say you should have put longer screws in the shelf before you put all the equipment in that cabinet, LOL

hmmmm, where to start, I have finish the lights in the Salon and they look and work great, the next project was installing a potable AC unit, it took sometime to get the exhaust ducted out had to find 5" insulated duct that was flexible, fund it and the AC is up and running, temp till we can replace the salon main AC looking at the Mermaid units, it is a complete self contain unit and not a split unit like we have now. well Miss Pam decided that we needed a love seat instead of a couch, and it was being very crowded in here , so I agreed and she was right we do have more room and and a new coffee table to boot, and still more room and do a lot more of cuddling on the Love seat, lol. to get mr. couch out I had to remove the sliding glass doors, then out it went. I honestly shed a couple of tears, but embrace the love seat with open arms. ok, maybe it took about 20min to warm up to it, now the next item on the list, I washed the top half of THE LADY STAR this past weekend, after we went to the blue berry festival sat, this past week end and it was wall to wall , food was awesome, car show super, it has been a very busy month of June and we are only half through it.ok, Miss Pam and I have agreed on a time for our wedding time, Its 5pm on Sept. 18th at Harbour Village Marina, Hampstead, N.C., slip C36 , reception at the club house afterwards, BYOB, we will party, well my typing is getting worse because my 2 fingers are tired. It is an open invitation. Come as you are, very casual.
Pam has finished a year of school with 3 more to go. She finished with a 95%. I am very proud of her. She made the deans list again. I think that is an awesome accomplishment. She is getting started on her HoneyDo list. She made it herself, no help from me. She will be working hard getting our home ready for the wedding.
