Long week

Very busy week. Lots of people...lots of projects...very busy. But I like it that way...sometimes. We are a hair away from being done in the latest 'complete remodel' room. What is left is basically cleaning it...the floor is outstanding...we 'decorated' and it looks really nice. The next 'make over' room is a horror and will be so time consuming (for us). We will have to completely scrape the walls and possibly the ceiling. Tile the floor. Replace faucets in bathroom and kitchen. It's a lot of work for 2 girls to do...but to be honest...we really like doing this work. What hurts us is when we have to juggle housekeeping crap and other menial tasks and put our 'remodeling' day on hold or postponed.

We are working in 2 other adjoining rooms right now. The shower 'stuff' was replaced and we are finishing up the tiling and repair in the closets where the access to the adjoining showers was gotten to. What should have been a semi-easy job has turned into...yep...you guessed it...a cluster f#@K! Nothing ever fits quite right back in after it's been taken out. We have to make a quick trip to the hardware store in the AM and hope to finish up the job(s) tomorrow. Here's hoping!

We do get a great sense of accomplishment and self satisfaction when we complete a room, though. I am very proud of Bobbie and me!

We have had some good rain. And even though it was predicted today, we got none (as yet). Every thing is greening up nicely. I love spring.

OH!! I got my new notebook/netbook computer!! What ever you call it! It's so small and cute!! I'm on the 'big one' right now as I needed to access other stuff and print things...but it is so nice to sit in bed and just look stuff up! I ordered a handy dandy little case and a wireless mouse as the thing you have to touch to move the arrow thing around (obviously the name escapes me!) is a pain in the ass! Other than that...it's so convenient!

I hear motorcycles driving in...oh joy!! And I hear my book calling my name. I am almost done. Then it is shower time. I need some hot tea and a bag of Pecan Sandie cookies...but I'll settle for the tea! Glad I decided not to go to the craft show. Now I don't feel guilty if I don't make anything! It better rain on Saturday!!

Will (hopefully) be back tomorrow...have a nice evening!!
