Have you seen Homer rocking on our windows lately? This year we are very pleased that we got our xmas decoration up this early. Our friend who was into motorhome towing came to help with his kids and our kid and their kid had so much fun putting up the Christmas lights and [...]

Parade Street Or Collins Street

Posted on November 2, 2009 - Filed Under Business, Entertainment, This Town, building | Leave a Comment

Someone was in the store the other day.. and asked my view regarding Th ‘Yarc and the present debate and fiasco that is going on .. about whether it should be on Parade Street or Collins Street? Who do I support? I’m an inside outsider and really I cannot give my comments nor [...]

Staying Or Moving

Posted on October 3, 2009 - Filed Under Business, This Town, building, review | 3 Comments

We’ve just received our lease renewal .. from the landlord’s office – time flew, already we are at this location for the last 2 years. We were previously 2 doors away for 2 years – same landlord but bad feng shui at that time for us – so we moved to this new location. [...]

I’m a Pack Rat

Posted on March 7, 2009 - Filed Under Life, building | Leave a Comment

The basement here is full of junk, stuff that will probably never sell but I refuse to throw away. The basement home is also full of junk, stuff that I might need someday, for something. But it’s too much and kept for too long so this spring I need to start tossing stuff. [...]

Blind for 5 Minutes a Day

Posted on January 22, 2009 - Filed Under Business, building | Leave a Comment

I was thinking yesterday that something has been different around the store lately and today I figured out what it was. During the warmer months, when the days are longer, for a short period every evening, the sun glares in through the back window. This causes a bad glare off my monitor so [...]

Oceanfront

Posted on July 10, 2008 - Filed Under This Town, building | Leave a Comment

There’s a lot of ‘planning’ going on in this town lately in regards to the town owned oceanfront property along Water Street all the way down as far as Bunkers Island. Are those tanks on Bunkers even in use any more?
Some speculate that we’re going to get a mega yacht dock, others claim a [...]

Home Inspections

Posted on June 25, 2008 - Filed Under building | 1 Comment

Even though the house we bought was new, we still had a home inspection done before we signed the papers. While it wasn’t really needed for a new house we still felt it was a good idea. If buying an older home I’d think it would be absolutely necessary to make sure everything [...]

Strange Wiring

Posted on May 26, 2008 - Filed Under Business, building | Leave a Comment

Some things about this new store confuse me. The electrical system was all redone less than 2 years ago and some other renovations were done at the same time. For instance, there are some network jacks in the walls in a couple of places, but some of them don’t work. I assume [...]

Formaspace Workbenches

Posted on April 29, 2008 - Filed Under Business, building | Leave a Comment

I spent a couple hours today cleaning up my work area. I had put some shelves on the wall not too long ago so that helped with the space problems. Now it’s more of a height problem. The counter is too low to work at standing up and too high to work [...]

Lock keeps Freezing

Posted on April 22, 2008 - Filed Under Life, building | Leave a Comment

I’m glad winter is finally gone. Whenever we get really cold weather here, the deadbolt on our front door at home freezes shut and no amount of lock de-icing helps to break it. I have to take it apart from the inside dry it all out with a hair dryer and then everything [...]

Yarmouth getting new High School

Posted on April 9, 2008 - Filed Under This Town, building | Leave a Comment

It was announced yesterday that Yarmouth will be getting a new High School by 2011. The current one was built in 1951 and is in need of some renovations. After looking at the cost to renovate and expand the existing building, it was decided that an entirely new school was a better option, [...]

More room please?

Posted on March 26, 2008 - Filed Under Business, building | Leave a Comment

I’ve almost got the back ‘office’ area cleaned out. Finally, after 2 months! I’ve got too much stuff for this little store I guess. I keep saying that, but it’s true! The deal was just too good to pass up though so we’ll make do. I plan to put in a [...]

It’s So Bright!

Posted on January 27, 2008 - Filed Under Business, building | Leave a Comment

Another thing I like about this new store is that it’s nice and bright inside. I do like our color scheme where we are though, rose red walls and green pillars, but it does make things a little darker overall. The new store had been renovated about a year ago though, complete with [...]

Moving Confirmed

Posted on January 10, 2008 - Filed Under Business, building | Leave a Comment

So we’ve decided that we’re definitely going to move but the location hasn’t quite been finalized as of yet. Most likely it will be just two doors down though, where Crosby’s Florists used to be and most recently Computers R Us. After taking a look around inside, I like the overall layout. [...]
