Well, I thought I would try this posting thing instead of just commenting and so far it looks like it's working. IF I can just get it to finish right, I 'll be in business. I'm glad everyone's doing well in spite of the blow Mother Nature threw at us this week. If my sources are right, we may be in for some more next week. I even got to stay home one day this week because of it. Turns out, I could have gone on in because the snow disappeared almost as fast as it came.
We are re-doing my house too. We have painted everything in mustard and ketchup so you won't be hungry if you come down this way to visit. It has been a co-operative effort, with everyone doing what they could. Sarah's husband, Ben, did the honors of spreading the mustard and ketchup. Very fine job, I might add. Then Shane and John David stripped the carpet off the basement floors. Sarah has been in charge of putting everything back in order, and now she is grinding the glue off the floor so we can stain the concrete. That away, in my old age, when I can't get up the stairs to the bathroom fast enough, and I pee my pants, it can just be dobbed up!!HaHa!! I ain't too far away from that now!! And if you're wondering what the heck I'm doing?? Well, I'm working to pay Lowe's off for all the stuff I've bought to do all this mahvelous renditioning!! I also have a friend who is helping me DE-Clutter!! You heard it right!!!DE-Cluttering. I have had some major panic attacks thinking about what she may take away from me.. Her one condition in doing this was that whatever she took out of a room could not go back in!! Can you believe it! You had just as well ask me to give up my first born!!! Anyway, I agreed, as my next- in -line sibling, Susan, said it would simplify my life. And I concur... If you aint got nothin, you can't lose nothin!! By the time they get done, I'll be lucky to have any purties at all. So when it all gets done, We'll have a big party and a big give-away. If you have ever secretly wished for anything I may have had, just come on down. Make your list and check it twice because it will probably be in the free- for- all party sale!! I will send details when the torture has ended.
Also, I think we should have an Aunties/neices day to go to Lexington and see where all the men in our family live, and go to school at and see what we can do to make life more pleasant and enjoyable for them. We could take them out to supper and do a fine job disturbing the peace at one of Lexington's fine eating establishment's. Would sometime in late February be good? Nan, you would need to look at your schedule and give us a more defined time. If Jenn is still among our readers, give us your opine too. I'm sure Tera would love to go. We might even be able to get a jump on spring shopping, even if I won't have no money!!! Anyways, I have blogged my little head off and that's just one more thing I won't have to lose so if you find it, let me know. Till I see you again, May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and may the snow melt under your feet. I love you each and everyone. Auntie B
