Having Period Without Blood

word "leisure" or: Is there life after sawing?

To make it short: In the meantime I realized that I may cancel this out words such as holidays, leisure and sleep out of my repertoire. In concrete terms, when I come out of this holiday home, I've probably only needed vacation time ;-).
Our construction and so our daily routine are strongly dependent on Peter. On the one hand, it can draw on wet wood and poor on the other hand, work on damp strains with increasing altitude and more dangerous. In addition, we have no skeleton but only two or three different high ladders (some actions are therefore not fully compliant SUVA). In return, Adi blossomed slowly but surely artists. With incredible confidence he balances in about three meters above the small tribes and has already saved brilliantly from one or other critical situation. I will not get rid of the suspicion that he wants to flay at my impression, he takes sometimes detours just to get up "rumturnen" can (well, maybe there are also the genes that would explain Adis preference for bananas ... .?!).
For about two months the weather is mostly dry. In addition, it has no more mosquitoes and black flies and the moment the temperatures move back into more comfortable areas. These optimal conditions, we benefit from as much as possible, resulting in part dependent on twelve hour work days. On such days we are sometimes almost too tired to go before sleep or something to eat n (thank God only "almost"!). I think it's understandable that I sometimes right after rain longing and hopeful search the sky for dark clouds. How wonderful it would be, once again retreat into a full day with a thrilling crime somewhere and never stop, as is read until the last word. In the meantime, namely the five books of my mother found the way here (thank you) and cry out, to be devoured. (My standards are even already dropped so much that I am not even a requirement to do that on a beautiful, warm day in a deck chair.)
But if it actually even raining, there is often still so many things done: cleaning up a broom in your hand, hair and clothes Wash blog write beard trimmed, .... Speaking Bart: With Adis hairstyle that is such a thing, actually yes, the long-haired rocker en his role model, but since the amount of hair somehow not quite work out, the motto is "the shorter the better." That's why he has taken from Switzerland to its electrical battery trimmer. To his chagrin, one might say here but do not charge because the voltage is too low. Because Adi but his hair definitely not - as he says - will "open" states that it has got hold of as much as silly $ 2 a battery-operated Hair Clipper. I do not know if he really expected it, that this thing works. In any case, the supposed bargain has drawn more than cut and was promptly and with an exclamation that I would not play here, disposed of. Thank God have mercy on him and Nicole and Denise him a brand-new trimmer ;-) brought. What
here in Canada also is missing, or otherwise Perwoll any miracle cure to the laundry is blindingly white or bacteria-free clean again . Although the clothes can smell like hand washing better, but clean and free of stains cuddly softness of the question. We love to have grabbed the opportunity with both hands, therefore, as we almost a month ago with Nicole and Denise at a campsite Washer and dryer vorfanden. Washed is fast, but we have to hang up first, and second, no room is the sun already set, so we opt for the dryer. After one pass, the laundry is still damp so that I throw in another dollar, the program provides a level-adjusting warmer and I hope that after round two at least level is reached "drying cycle. An hour later, Adi and I control again to the laundry room. But what a disappointment! Still, the clothes are so wet that it would make no sense to take her Sun Apparently, the tumbler is broken and I am considering just to report back to the campsite responsible message. But since It is next door a second free machine outweighs the convenience and we try it. Umbeigen laundering, throw dollars, select Program. I'm already halfway out to the laundry room, when Adi asked me: "Have you pressed the start button?". Start button? Well, as so often was also a machine that does not work if you do not press Start. Adi can hardly recover to be superior to the well again with the marriage well and has for my statement that I got home my clothes always hang up and never tumbler, left only a sympathetic smile. (At least I saved myself the embarrassment of a defect report!) After the first burst of laughter assured me Adi true that it is important that a woman can handle a chainsaw as a tumbler, but I know I still get to hear this story a few times.
as did the tank story, which took place at the very beginning of our stay, Canada: I drive, drive almost empty tank, gas station. There has, as usual, free-standing columns. I suspect that the tank at the Jeep is right, go left and thus ran off leaving Adi. But bad luck, by signs the attendant gives me to understand that this is not so. Lightning fast, I analyze the situation and looking for an elegant solution to bring the car to the most convenient way in the right position. Since there is enough has free space in front of me, I quickly and expertly led fully a half-circle and go in the opposite direction shortly before on the other side of the tank column. Smiling about the successful maneuvers off I want, when I sign the disbelieving shake of the head of the gas station attendant. Slightly confused, I wonder whether on this site probably is no unleaded. The moment the penny drops and I read on the faces of the two men what they think about women at the wheel .... And to
Finally, something about the current build status: Working out the mass sivholzgiebel went surprisingly quickly and painlessly. For simplicity, we worked on the gable Ground and had drawn the tribes after only put together like Lego bricks. To stabilize the whole, we drilled each with a 2.5 cm wide drill two to three 30 cm deep holes in each strain. So we could then always connect two superimposed strains with nearly 30 cm long round wooden rods. This gives the gable design some stability and, with the addition screwed slats that the whole Herrlic ility not even the slightest breeze collapses. Yesterday the second gable is finished, and we see clearly that it is not deleted. Today just before noon it was ready: With the help of the machine, we placed the ridge purlin. Adi and I have prepared and purlins gable so far that the whole thing (add, lift, place, draw or take down) lasted barely 10 minutes. Up to this point actually, everything went like clockwork, but the moment of truth comes tonight or tomorrow when we will definitely bring the purlin in place.

Difference Between Brahmi Oil & Vatica Oil

From cabin to cabin

No, this is not a prison, and yes, we know that also belong to a house window! But somehow impress us with this massive wood walls and no windows (or perhaps because) every morning and again. Slowly but surely, our project forms, which is also good if you Considering that we will be back in two months in Switzerland. Without the help of Nicole and Denise, we would still not ready. According to our common seeds holidays we have given full speed for four days and are actually finished with the walls. Denise showed tireless efforts in the washing of the tribes (with bleach), a very monotonous and strict labor, which Adi way expresses again and again successfully, with the remark that it was women's work ... (a good thing we practiced in front of the church first! ) And Nico was not enough of working with a chainsaw. He was always the first to urged to leave in the morning and the last, wanted to pass the evening after work beer. In short, there were two great and wonderful weeks, we've experienced with our friends. Many thanks again for your visit and help on the site!

Today, Sylvain and Johanne with the two kids flew off to southern France, where they are three weeks holiday. This has given us the honor to be a month to enjoy the company of Dali. Dali is now eight years old dog of our Canadian friends. He is infinitely good-natured and affectionate, but also very lazy. His favorite things are lying around and driving. This week we have him, so even with to Baie-Saint-Paul taken. On the way back I got out then about 2 km from the chalet, to run back to Dali. He should at least get a little exercise and have the opportunity to go do his business. The first is the fact Hütetag missed and our negligence in the morning promptly fined. dress up dog ash ... is not exactly what we imagine with gentle compliance to the new day. Adi then graciously accepted the case (for that he must wash finally no strains ;-)). Long story short, the dog did not dream of it, get comfortable with running the home, but ran like a fury behind his beloved Auto ago, probably in the hope that he can jump up somewhere. It was indeed nothing but Dali proved tough guy in the literal sense, for he came only two minutes after Adi at the Chalet. We were amazed not bad on this great achievement that we would have expected him to be honest never. But the poor animal had apparently taken badly. He panted almost the lungs from the body and could hardly stand up. When Dali's condition had not improved after three hours of essential Adi resorted to homeopathy and gave him a gift of arnica. That worked wonders and the next morning was our four-legged friend again the old man.
The fact that our
dwell foreign hosts does not mean such that the busy coming and going out here would subside. Maybe even the opposite is the case, because next week start here with coarser gun. With heavy machinery, its purpose is the dam of "our" lake, which is actually broken in the spring of 2006 to be repaired. This has two very positive aspects. On the one hand, we come as yet to benefit from a small lake in front of our cabin and on the other hand, we can place any of the purlin using one of these monsters. This strain is the highest, but also the greatest and most difficult, we block. Because our skyline does not exactly in the middle runs to the hut, we appreciate it as a realistic, this strain for two (or three) and fit without mechanical assistance. (On the next Adi "fights" with the eaves purlin.)


And here we are at the point which I have already mentioned in the title. Our cabin is developing more and more to the cabin. Although the matrix with 5.40 m to 6.40 m in the interior, much as the Adi planned as last year, has recorded and Johanne mailed. But by her height, design and effort, has moved the whole thing in one direction, the Adi and I had planned did not. The basic idea was a simple hunting lodge (About the same as in the photo, only slightly larger) without putting up any comfort. In recent weeks, has become increasingly clear that John and Sylvain became a small guest house with toilet, kitchen and maybe even want to take a shower. It means that the walls are insulated with glass wool, that a floor placed on the false bottom, and include new windows in each worth 800 Can. Dollars are to be installed and the cabin or just the log cabin is higher than originally planned and a modern roof structure gets with paneling for the interior view, vapor barrier, insulation and everything else that goes with it. Add to that the not exactly cheap interior and exterior painting, to protect the wood from moisture, fungus and bugs. Nice to Sylvain naturally assume all costs for their additional requests. Adi and I are often a bit torn. On the one hand, we find it fantastic that our works are to be afterwards actually still used and inhabited. On the other hand it seems we have something funny to us in the simple and not too big living room or shower, toilet, bed etc. present. Be that as it may, we still have fun in our project and are excited about what is at the end of it!
