Peter Heinrich’s Dark Strong (which is neither particularly dark or strong, but great flavor) in my everyday calabash.

Enjoyed some Peterson Nightcap in the lattice billiard a bit earlier. Now smoking some 7-20-4 "Boston Tea Party" from my local tobacconist in a Rattray's army mount meerschaum. It is a Va/Bur with some orientals that I believe C&D blends for them. A nice medium smoke with a touch of tang.

Just got my guts kicked by OJK in a Diplomat 5th Ave. What the heck? Was it some of the 2015 OJK I sent you? OJK can be pretty strong especially so in a large bowl. It was. Earlier I was telling Emily how it's weird that I keep my body loaded with copious amounts of nicotine all day long, I can smoke dark plug / dfu on an empty stomach and be fine, I can Scarface snuff and have no issues.. but OJK can give me a wallop sometimes, HBS does it once in a while too. I'm not sure what it is |

GH Louisiana Flake in a Savinelli 130 KS.
I wanted Dark Flake Scented but I camt find my jar. The strange thing is all of my GH blends are in 1 box, so I'm really not sure where it ran off to.
It's ok though, LF is delicious

Bald Headed Teacher, in the 121 K.S. Estella, the last of the evening coffee cools at my side. A large part of our belongings are packed away in boxes, and stored in the garage, the laundry room is empty, and the furniture in the greatroom and master bedroom is pulled away from the walls. The great room received two coats of Agreeable gray paint yesterday, then the news came that the flooring wont be in till the 21st...the painter packed up, and told us he'd be back on the 22nd...I guess I'll just smoke and wait.

Are your washer and dryer in the garage, too, or are you just without? I've hit a lull in my unpacking. I've hit a point where I'm just not sure what to do next. And the fact I'm still keeping the LR furniture crammed together to make an easy path for the fridge delivery people isn't helping. I'm hoping the third time's the charm on Saturday. |

Goldbrick That's a great color and goes with everything. I guess they named it appropriately. I've used that color more in the last 2 year than any color besides white, in both GA and AZ.

The washer and dryer are hooker back up, but the cabinets are gone, and the flooring cut away down to the sub-floor, Urb...it'll all be better soon! |

Yep, we really like the gray, and it makes the white door and trim really pop. The vinyl plank flooring is Mohawk. " Ashlar Oak ", a light gray woodgrain, it should pull everything together nicely. |

It's been a heck of a few days. Had to get a guy to replace the floor in the bathroom with me fixing the under floor plumbing. First thing this morning a guy showed up to fix the gutter, then, before I could get my second cup of coffee the plumber showed up to put in a new toilet. After several issues with that and running all over the acre turning water off and on, that was done and I started brewing another cup of coffee. And the service guy from the water company showed up to change the water pressure regulator. While he was fixing that and I was running around turning the water off and on the UPS guy showed up with the new cooktop and he had to carry it from the highway all the way to the house. We were both huffing and puffing too much to talk.
Anyway, got a lot fixed today. And my coffee is cold.

I wouldn't do that to a friend. And I know it's nothing like what you have been going through. |

Oh, I didn't mean to draw a comparison to my recent troubles. Mine are in the rearview. Herb's are still just getting rolling. He'd probably like a day where a lot gets done, even if it costs him his coffee.

Wife wants to paint the half bath gray. I think it would be too claustrophobic. In the tiny room. Lighting is another factor with tiny rooms. Agreeable gray might work in a bathroom with white cabinets, and such, but there are a ton of green that would be worth checking out...ours are a light blue, and I'm not in love with them at all. |

Tomorrow I install the new cooktop and this weekend 2 new light fixtures, then I start building cabinets. At least it keeps me busy. I hope that Herb will be done soon. |

Agreeable gray might work in a bathroom with white cabinets, and such, but there are a ton of green that would be worth checking out...ours are a light blue, and I'm not in love with them at all. These cabinets are undecided. My wife wanted to paint them a dark turquoise. I'm not so sure. The sink is a bowl with dark blue background and pink and white flowers on the outside and a turquoise interior with the crackled porcelain interior. Toilet is white and the floor is a medium-dark pine. The countertop is going to be natural maple butcher block. The room is a corner off the living room, taken at a 45 degree angle, so there's not much wall space. |
