Well, I just posted some pix of the new kitchen to my Picasa page and you were both emailed the link to view. We've had tons of rain here, fortunately, although the road flooded both ways and Kathy couldn't get out one day (i was already at the office), our home is up from the river and we did not get any damage. Lots of roads closed and the trailer park and dog pound were flooded out, lost 4 dogs at the pound.
Lisa is in the hospital with kidney stones, supposed to get a stent installed today (Sunday) and the surgery to "blast" the stones out tomorrow.
David brought Garret by to stay with us while he and Shania went to the hospital just now, but Bubby would not stay, he wanted to see his Mommy.
Now the kitchen is done (exept for the purchase and install of a dishwasher), I just finished installing some trim oak around the porcelain tile that is under the woodburning stove (where the tile meets the carpet). I still have two more projects for inside the house. I want to put another coat of paint on our bedroom walls, (that was the last room to do before we moved in and I was in a hurry). I want to relocate one of the overhead "wagon wheel" lights in the kitchen and I am going to run wire into the clothes closets so we can have lights in there.
Our screened porch is a disaster with all the tools, sawdust, leftover materials, and so-on. Thank God we have that porch or I'd have to keep going out to the garage/shop all the time to get tools, fasteners, or what not. So once my inside projects are done in a couple weeks, then I'll work on taking all the crap back out to the shop/garage so we can get our porch back in time for spring weather.
Although there is snow on the ground today, just a dusting, and we have the wood burning stove going still, it's supposed to get up to 50 again this week. Spring is around the corner.
Been more busy at work and have a few properties "In Contract" although many of them are short sales and it's questionable whether or not they will really close, but I need to work at it and have faith. I think, however, if I could get a real 40 hour/wk job with benefits, I'd take it in a heartbeat.
Guess that's all for now, catch you both later -- Marilynn, quilt looks good and Kathy mailed pedigree info you for Ashley. Bye bye for now,
Herb, didn't you have kidney stones? What c auses that? Send Lisa out love. come home soon.
