The 20 year gap between our last move and this upcoming one has confirmed the rule that "Junk expands to meet available space." as well as the old folk saying that "The only thing faster than Rabbits at reproducing...is Junk"<br /><br />Fortunately Mrs J is more ruthless at getting rid of junk than I.

Retree cards expire at 65 because that is when Medicare kicks in, so the bar code stuff has to be changed to reflect that (or something close to that). Retired military Medicare primary with Tricare for Life secondary is a definite winner in the health care arena. Retiree dependent ID cards do seem to have an expiration, so check them once in a while.<br />JBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-28036490111946070822020-06-08T11:05:37.112-07:002020-06-08T11:05:37.112-07:00They are usually in the tool crib or next to the p...They are usually in the tool crib or next to the paint counter.

They're putting in the floor and crown moulding, as well as doors and cabinets at this point. Haven't seen them this morning, but they were here yesterday (Sunday, yeah, I know. Weird.) I suspect actual painting will be the next thing. Garage door is also going up soon. I'll be happy with that as I smelled a skunk in the vicinity a couple of days ago. It getting into the house would have been bad, but doors are in place now. A Garage door would seal it up pretty well. (Wish the workers would close up at the end of the day, but...Mrs J and I use that and feeding the horses to walk up there.
