Paint Project Update

 


Happy Monday!

After a week of ice, snow showers,
cold temps and no school for three
days plus the holiday last week,
we are sunny and in the 50's today!

I had a planned day off today and
having the sun out has helped the
Mojo action here.

But today's post is about our bed-
room project that seems to have
drug out FOREVER! So many glitches
here and there, patch work needed
from former owners (our room is
an add on), paint on the ceiling (not
supposed to be there so we decided to
paint the ceiling gray like the walls but
with a surprise twist, drapes ordered
and sent back (wrong ones), two sets
of bedding bought then taken back,
color scheme has changed once, we
have drug ourselves through many
so many stores BUT I can say:
THE PAINTING IS DONE!!!
We have some trim to do and a bit of
the ceiling left, WE have decided on
bedding AND drapes. We have made
those purchases plus new drapery rods
but still need to buy wood blinds.
There is a lot more light at the end of
this very long tunnel.
Wowzer!!

As soon as we are completely finished
and the room is fully decorated
I will post pics. We are so close!!!
Thank heavens.

Wednesday Write Up

 


Hello!

Well here it is Wednesday again and
I just realized it. This month has gone
sooooooo fast and I can't seem to keep
up.

So much has come and gone this month
already!

Groundhog Day
Valentine's Day
Ash Wednesday
Anniversary of Mr. Ken and I's first date
President's Day
Plus several more fun things to enjoy
before the endof the month.

Yesterday we had the day off  from school
because of icy weather and cold temps.
Today we were off again for the same stuff.
Less ice but cold temps.
Tomorrow doesn't look any better.

It's no wonder I don't know what day it is.

I'll have pics next time from what we have
been up to lately.

Oh and by the way we are still painting. It
is getting close.
Another post on that later. :)

Success

 


Cupid's Crew was busy again this year.
Creativity took place in several places,
one being my dining room. Paper, stickers,
markers, glue all helped to make Valentine
cards for the Valentine's Card Shower.


 

Leslie at Dandelion Sprinkles helped
with her crew.

 

They were very creative , all so cute.
Thanks, Leslie! Love the Dove Chocolates
and Valentine cups that came in my package.


 

These are the ones I made plus the
ones my kids at school made.


 




All boxed and ready to go. Took
the bundle of over 50 cards to the
post office Saturday with delivery
in time for Valentine's Day!
I call that SUCCESS.

We hope the patients at Children's
Mercy Hospital enjoy their
Valentine cards.

Balance---Still Looking For It



How do you find balance in
your life?

We have so much going on right
now that I am finding myself coming
and going and a lot is not getting
accomplished.
Hopefully this will be the week!

The last two weeks I was two people
at school. This week should be better,
people have returned to there own
positions.

The painting is still going on, we are
still looking for bedding and drapes.
Ordered drapes and the wrong ones
were sent. Now waiting on payback
from the company. Can't decide on
bedding yet.

Other things need to be accomplished
around the house.

We changed Internet providers and
that has been a bit of a mess, hence
blogging is behind.

Both of us are trying hard to find down
time but no such luck.

As my cousin says on his Facebook posts:

"How was your day Grasshopper?"
