Too serious

If this blog post offends anyone, so be it.
Boy howdy. The old Billy Bob goes away for a few days and it like he never existed. Reason for that....I done got myself and my blog writ'n too damn serious an' too much talk bout work. Not enough nonsense has passed my way, ain't got  hurt, no fall'n down kind'a stuff to write about. I don't like to get serious unless everything else fails......so I took me a break.

Was a sad day to come back and find a fellow blogger has passed away.....no matter who it was.

One thing most people shy away from, is talk'n bout death.....'specially the younger generation what ain't never gonna die. As each year passes, I know my day is com'n. Don't know when or where it gonna happen, but it's gonna. If' ya got yourself one them bucket list thingys, get 'er done before it's too late. Me....I don't have one no more. Done did everything I ever wanted to do as a young whippersnapper. All my dreams are fulfilled. That is unless 5 acres, a 16x36 shelter for "Sally da house", a big ol' tractor, a bass fish'n boat, a pond full of fishes, a little vegetable garden, a goat an' burro to mow the lawn....and someone to share what days remain. That's not a dream, but a goal. Can it happen?  Do I still have time?

Ok, back to blog'n with Billy Bob and Friends. If ya remember, I replaced the carpet in "Sally da house" with some beautiful walnut flooring. Every time I look at it, I get that "a job well done" kind of feel'n. But.....before anyone else makes the same mistake I did, I got to tell ya something. It was a mistake from the git go. Not a mistake to throws a nasty carpet in the dumpster, but a mistake in choice of material and color. Yeah I know...."I told you so".

So here's the deal. If'n ya own a RV and decide to install a wood surface floor, do a little research first. Yes I did research, but not enough. I knowed I wanted a dark color what I was gonna have to sweep and mop every single day for the rest of my life. But what I didn't consider was the durability of wood. Although I have a lifetime guarantee on the flooring.....this crap scratches....and everybody know that scratches shows up more on a dark floor than on a light color floor. Now I have a decision to make.....what I did the other day. Polyurethane the whole damn thing. Yes polyurethane is durable. But I done make another mistake. Bought me up a $45 a gallon floor poly what is gonna shine more than I want. Or I think it is. "Should'a bought yourself up a gallon of satin finish Billy Bob". What I didn't. So I'm stuck with a floor what needs sweeped and moped every day, has a tendency to scratch and is gonna be too freak'n shiny. I'm gonna love it.....maybe. Research first before you do what old Billy Bob did. Think Pergo.

Ok....got a leak to fix before we reinstall the slide out awning. Ain't much of a leak, but it's a leak.

Oh boy, did the old Billy Bob mess up or what? Ya see, it's like this. I open up that gallon of semi gloss polyurethane and start slap'n it on the floor....in the bedroom as a trial run. Trial run is over....too shiny......look just like water lay'n on the floor.
"Now what ya gonna do Billy Bob"??? Well I rekons I'm gonna spend me up another $45 for a gallon of satin finish and hope it's not too shiny too. This could get expensive ya know. I can see it now....old Billy Bob in the carpet department look'n at new carpet. But ya know I ain't gonna be do'n that....right??? Grrrrrrrrr......!!!!!!
The only other option is to polyurethane the bedroom only and be satisfied with the rest as is. Nobody visits the bedroom anyhows.
