Dunno, but is sucks hard, and it keeps on sucking... (don't have one myself, I think, I'll ask the cleaning lady...)

Does she wear a smile?

Dunno, she works when I'm not at home.

Good morning.

I feel like I have been cheating on you guys. I spent several hours on the Ubuntu forum last night. I am trying to figure out how to make a clone of my current setup on my netbook. I want a recovery DVD that can get my system back to where it is now if I screw it up again. Even better would be a network recovery. I may buy another flash drive today to try that route. Lots to read and learn.

just found another mouse head... and another one
good thing i bothered to check/clean the place, they come installing the double glazed windows tomorrow... would ave been real fun moving the table by the window with the workers looking at 2 bloody tiles and 2 mouse heads... And no cat's in sight(coz they are skittish )

* eeh, yeah, so i had a couple of mice over for diner... and a great bottle of Chianti to go with em*

@#@@$# B@stard landlord of my sister...

was just looking at this years rental price index... since there's deflation i figured i'de check if i could save her a few bucks a month...

turns out the landlord got the index price for 2009 wrong.. she pays 369 a month now..
it should have been 357.6 a month.. 11.4 euro a month she payed to much... or about 139 euro over the year...

not much money for most of us... but that's a big sum of money for somebody in a sheltered workplace, making minimum wage..

Now looking into the legal aspects, if i can get the landlord to refund her the money she overpayed... it's one way i can add some money to her savings account, she rarely manages to come up with something after she had to shoe string her budget just to get by...

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH IT'S FAWKING SNOWING AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I wanna shoot someone

Morning guys.

Rick, winter does not seem end here either.... Forecast for the end of the week is not much to look forward to...

I've just about had it with cold as well, I NEED sunshine. I get crancky without it...

Night boys... I'm going to bed early tonight... woo!

Morning, boys!

i think you don't mean that Markus

Hawdy Ya'll it's another glorious day, so they tell me

double glazing is in... looks nice from the outside, to bad about the old white door, but that one was already double glazed, and i need to set my priorities.

still need to do up the inside, some plaster board and it'll be good to go.
at least i'll be insulated in the back of the house

Big change on the inside, those aluminium frames leave more glass then the old, wooden frames they replace... more light...
next on the list is that last roof window on the left.. had packed it up with rockwoool for the winter, i'll put in another velux in june...

you can always paint the door, so it won't stick out as much.
You didn't do the front of the house??

it's PVC, not sure how well paint will stick to it...
at least it's a clean door now , if it get's dirty, i put the hose on it... not so if i paint it..

front of the house will be a job for later, as i will be putting the door where there's a window now, on the left.
will require some brick work as well as bigger budget.

just did the back windows now, for a quick tax rebate when i file my 2009 taxes

the refund in 2010, will pay for my central heater

the refund i get from the central heater in 2011, will pay for my front remodeling

i recycle my refunds for optimal cashflow :D

There is a paint for every type of surface, but it will need proper prep work.
Your heating bill will go down, too bad you couldn't do this 4 or 5 months ago, you could have profited an extra winter.

might give it a try, but first i'll be plastering up the inside of my new double glazed windows :D

Good morning.

Stijn I see you have a "solar powered clothes dryer" in your back yard. :)

yeah, it's the latest eco model, doesn't use any electricity, and damn , so quiet !! amazing
it don't work to well in the winter though... but that's a small price to pay to keep Mother Nature happy!

come think of it... i've been here almost for a full year now..
1 year down on the mortage, 29 more to go!
