Changes and frustrations
We are making more and more progress around here. I have the guest room almost complete now. I got the pillows in and Tom hung the new blinds and the valance for me. It looks nice. He also installed the overhead lights in the living room and got them working this weekend. I repainted our porch light fixture and he rehung it and now it works too. YEAH! Things are working again! Oh and we also installed the towel rods and TP holder in the master bath. Now all I need to complete that room is a cabinet to hang on the wall over the toilet. Then I can store things OUT OF SIGHT! I just have to go pick one out.


But I also got the headboard in by UPS Wednesday and Friday when I took it out of the shipping box, it was all beat up and heavily damaged. UGGHH! I am so frustrated with that because now I will have to fight another battle with an ebay seller. Oh joy! I couldn't believe the blasted thing was so damaged. It took a month and a half to get it here in the first place and now it's damaged! I just want my money back and I am just going to ship this thing back to them and go somewhere here in town and buy one that I can actually look at before I bring it home. I should have done that in the first place. STUPID STUPID STUPID. Live and learn.


I am really missing some of my friends from work. We write back and forth in email, but it's just not the same. I had lunch with Renee last Wednesday for her birthday and I really enjoyed that. It was nice outside and we sat out on the patio of the restaurant and fed grapes and fries to the birds. They were so cute. They were just sitting there watching us as if to say, 'when will you give us some of your food. We are being nice and friendly'. And they were. They were so cute, we just laughed at how they seemed to manipulate us into giving them food. They would sit and watch us with those cute little faces. I could almost reach out and hand feed them. I enjoyed that lunch time.
Heather spent the weekend with us from Friday night till this afternoon. She had to get her hair cut on Saturday and she still comes back to Baton Rouge for that. After that, she came back here and got me and we went to get our nails done and then to Walmart. After getting home and eating supper, we watched CARS and then THE ISLAND. Both were pretty good movies. I love Mater on CARS. He was cute. But my favorite cartoon movie is still FINDING NEMO. Anyway, I had a nice weekend having Heather around for a bit and the weather was nice too.
Hope you are all doing well.

    we rented the movie Cars this weekend but never got an opportunity to watch it. I was hoping we could watch it Sunday night, but Greg felt it more important to talk to his mother on the phone for 2 hours like he does EVERY Sunday night. men....
