    Have done nothing but meet with trades in the new house the last two days and signing invoices, feel like I have been stripped naked to the waist and hauled backwards through a corn field! No trades tomorrow thank god.
    At least now it’s all sorted out

    How's that going with your personal trade experience. Who is irritating who?

    So this time at home I accomplished more in two days than I did last time in five. Still have some things left on the list, but nothing too big. Bought provisions for leaving out tomorrow. Lots of time on the load so no rush, but probably in two weeks I'll feel like the planners are treating me like a rented mule again.

    At least the election ads stop now. It sucked watching the game last night.

    There all pretty good guys, it’s just the sheer volume of them. Yesterday was plumber, ( three toilets to change, and a few changes at the bottom of the stack) hvac( change air exchanger) radon remediation system ( pretty common need here in north east) , no manufacturer serial number plate on the wood stove ( couldn’t get WETT certified for insurance) new one is installed, fence estimate for the dogs.
    It was just bill or estimate and deposit after another lol:biggrin_2551:. Have been fortunate though, have found all good people, competent in their work. I guess I’m just complaining, it was a pricey day

    Take a picture of the beans before grinding. Would like to see the color, to see what they claim dark roast is.

    Right on the bag it says Sumatra, like from the island. Pretty big one too. Well known for coffee.

    Should stand up quite nicely to your addiction to additives. Also makes a good cold beverage.
