Daisy was here overnight... I didn't see her, but she left one of her infamous notes...
"Dear Casey, This is all I need to run the time machine. My Ouija board and a rotary phone... Love, Daisy..." Then I noticed a PS on the end... "P. S. Don't worry. The Terrible Two can't operate my machine without my special planchette."
Thank goodness for that!
Tessie and Zar have been helping again... While I was asleep. They brought in materials to build a double seated bench... I assume that they expect me to build it and pad the seat...
I am not too worried. I don't think that the two of them can get along on a place where they have to sit so close. The fighting for the bigger share will start as soon as they are seated. One will end up in a heap on the floor... That's just the way things go...
Meanwhile... Zar did help out last night... I was trying to think of a way to get down from the platform, without the neighbors noticing...
He solved it with two words and a web video. Rope ladder. And an e how video on how to tie the knots.
Go here to learn. It is really easy, if you ever have need for one. http://www.ehow.com/video_4807652_make-knots-rope-ladder.html
I now know how to make one in mini and in real life. I am not sure what I would use it for, but it's a handy bit of knowledge. They didn't teach that particular craft in Campfire Girls... Or Girl Scouts either. I had a go at both when I was a kid.
We decided that it should go on the back side of the house. Less noticeable there.
Anyway, I looked a bit later and Tessie was "helping out". I am not sure if she was holding the pin in place or about to pull it out... I am going to have to use a Really Big Nail to hold that in place!
After all, the time machine will go farther and faster, without all of that extra weight...
I have to go settle yet another argument... And tie more knots, so that Zar can safely climb all the way to the ground. Maybe I should put an air mattress beneath where he is climbing. Tessie can be hazardous to your health if she wants something all to herself...
See you tomorrow.

Nice ladder, Casey! Those terrible two sure keep you busy!
Gosh, I love how Daisy stays one step ahead of Tessie! And thank you for the rope tutorial link - now I can solve my lighthouse ladder problem too.
