Still trying this thing out.
It's addicting!
I have a cool background image, but can't figure out how to upload it. Kudos to Dr Ivan for the cool fucking header and the cool background that I can't yet use. Anyhow, I should be finishing up work, doing some work on the way home, and then going home to an ailing wife. I'm guessing though that my absence is the best medicine she could ask for. Apparently, I'm kind of needy and the last thing sick people want are needy people. Ah well, maybe I'll pound a few beers later tonight after my mid-day nap. While I'm skimming the pool and setting up the filter, in preparation for backfilling around said pool tomorrow and landscaping in preparation(no not Preparation-H) for the month long deck building project. When all is said and done, we'll have a nice 16x22 ft deck on a 21ft round swimming pool, with the possibility of a hot tub later down the road when $$ permit. What we now have is a big pile of sand in the driveway, two giant ruts down the side of the yard and a large sand/weed patch under where the swingset once stood. Hey don't blame me, I was against getting the temporary blow ring pool that we put in said sand/weed pit. Still have to figure on mulching that area or just reseeding it before moving the swingset back. Ahhhh the trials and tribulations of life in bumblefuck suburbia!!!

Shit dude, a month to build a deck? Sounds to me like you need harder working Mexicans. Me hispanic friend and I built me 16x16 deck in four days (allowing two days for the footings to fully dry). Me same hispanic compadre and I built the second 10 x 22 deck off the first said deck in three days. Fly me out, put me up, and let me have me way with your wife and I'll have your deck complete in five days (two days to build the deck and three days to have me way with the fair Jewel).
I ca only work on it on weekends, and I was being liberal with the estimated time frame, given rain and unforseen circumstances at work.
For the record, Jewel would chew you up and spit you out in far less than three days. I'm guessing you'd be dead in less than three hours.
I can attest to what BUZZ said about the fair Jewel... me yamsack will never recover!
Pixie can hook you up with whatever background and other blog amenities you might need. Her fees are extremely reasonable and she's super easy to work with. Tell her Monk sent you.

I have the background, just need to know how to get it worked in.
