Okay, decision making time.

Okay, I haven't posted anything in way too long, and here is my chance. The first of the 8 W's is Watching, and while I have been doing a lot of that, I have come to the realization that there are a lot of things in my everyday world that I am needing to do an information inquiry on. (eww..I ended in a preposition. I hate that!)

Okay, so here is my short list.
~~~I was thinking of interviewing my grandfather about WWII, but as he live almost 5 hours away, this idea is a no go. (He is rather hard of hearing, and the whole phone thing doesn't work well. I find if you want info from him, you kind of have to corner him, in person...)
~~~Golden retrievers-maintaining, care, abilities, training...the list goes on. But I am one of those people that doesn't do well with 'instruction manuals". I tend to read three pages, then throw the thing out the window...The book that is, not the dog.
~~~Installing a ceiling fan. Yeah, another topic big on instruction manuals. I will definitely leave that one for my husband with the engineering degree.
~~~Researching a trip to Jamaica. No Instruction manual...awesome!..sounds like a useful, practical topic.
~~~Finding a good roofer. VERY IMPORTANT! The Field House (like that play on words...my last name is Field...) needs a new roof. I could research what exactly needs to be done, contact different contractors, get estimates, and figure out what is the best materials for a new roof. Again, very practical as I would like to be warm and dry this winter!
~~~Finding a fence contractor. Again, a very relevant topic. We have a new puppy, and live on a busy street. Not a good combination. Soon, she will be a big puppy, and the thought of standing outside in my bathrobe at 5 in the morning with 2 feet of snow on the ground, just so she can be walked really does not appeal to me. I know that I also have to figure out how to get a zoning variance for a 5 foot fence. Being a corner unit we are not allowed more than a 4 foot fence on any side. Bridget will be a big dog and can already clear the puppy gate with little effort, so for us, bigger is better.

Okay decision time. I will be back with you this afternoon with my final decision.

PS, If you can't tell by know, I am a world class procrastinator!
