A Day Of Visiting!

My son and his wife made it down from the mountain. They fell in love with Jasmine. It was so cute to watch him hold her. It is special when a sibling has a child. When the Lions got a first down in a game about 3 weeks ago against the Green Bay Packers the Lions offense broke out in the 'Peanuts'... Sign in to see full entry.

Decorating Saga Continues.

I'm finding myself in burnout over the decoorating. I've resigned myself to not being able to finish before I fly to Michigan this time next week. I've put in the effort and Chris and Jessica have done a lot as well. Chris put the lights on the roof tonight. There's more lights to go up outside and... Sign in to see full entry.

I Didn't Realize I Hadn't Updated My Blogs Today!

I have been on the decorating binge so to speak. I didn't reaalize how much time it takes when time is limited. I got the houses up today for the village. I checked for burned out bulbs but all were good. Then I went to the street lights. A bit of a problem with them. One string had only one light... Sign in to see full entry.

The Decorating Continues!

It's a good thing I forget how much time it takes to get my decorations up. It's a bit different this year because of the time frame. I've lost 12 days because I'll be with my Michigan grandchildren. I'll take the trade-off. The last time I saw them was during their grandfather's memorial. This will... Sign in to see full entry.

Let The Decorations Emerge From Their Slumbering Places!

The ledge in the living room was completed last night. It was eventful spacing things out. There are lighted birds trees in the background complimenting two lighted birch trees with stars in the foreground. The three in the back on have usb cords so I can put them on a timer. The other two trees... Sign in to see full entry.

Today Is Decorating Day! Fun Times!

I had intended to start decorating yesterday in the late afternoon. However, I did not get the walls finished in the dining room, kitchen and hallway because I spent the afternoon with my granddaughter. I watched her so her parents could a few things done in the house and the yard. She is such a... Sign in to see full entry.

Cleaning Is A Chore! I Suppose That's Why The List Says Chores! Lol

I decided to take everything down this year before I started decorating for Christmas. Since I went that route I figured I might as well wash the walls. I found a cool mop on Amazon. It has a mop head for the walls, a pad for washing windows and the the mop base has a squeegee. The top of the mop... Sign in to see full entry.

Final Update On My Dispute!

I haven't had an official letter sent to me but I checked the notifications at the credi card site. They said they had done everything they could to recover my money but the publisher refuses to give me my money. They advised me to seek other means to get my money back. It's not much of a...
