Nothing New In My Zoo, So Here's Something To Make You Chuckle, I Hope!

There isn't any news on my house so I have spent the day cleaning my rental! I suspect this thing will look brand new if I don't get a closing date soon! LOL! I hope these come up; if not I will try another approach! Sign in to see full entry.

I Made A Brave But Confident Move Today! Brave Indeed!

To begin with I am not sure which agent is a bit lax, mine or the seller's! An addendum that should have been signed long ago popped over the weekend! The seller's agent that it had been done and mine just happen to find it in her e-mail! Brother, don't they know I am anxious to get this done! LOL!... Sign in to see full entry.

In My Mind The Countdown Begins! Less Than A Week I AM Thinking!

Tomorrow is the 21th, [only 2 more months of winter, lol], and I am entering the final week of the projected 2-3 weeks for the seller to get his final approval from his lender! What makes me think this is it is that I signed, yes another one, a document yesterday indicating that I did not have an... Sign in to see full entry.

Perhaps Plexiglas Is The Answer!

I spent some time looking at Plexiglas to see if there was a cheaper way to frame my prints! And, no it's not! But, I still like the idea of matting them and placing them between two pieces of Plexiglas though! It will be the same amount as wood for the most part but I like the unique feel to it!...

Another Week Has Passes And I Am Left To Wait, Wait, Wait, Wait...

Another weekend is upon me and I still haven't heard anything! I truly did not expect but I was hopeful! By Monday 2 weeks will have passed and that means hopefully only one more to wait at the longest! The best part is that hockey starts this weekend so at least I can keep myself occupied and not...

There's A Lull, There's A Lull, And Man Alive, There's A Lull! My Oh My!

I have spent the last two days trying to decide what color laminate I would like in the living and dining rooms as well as carpet for the bedrooms! My goodness the selections seems to be endless! I have a fancy for red maple with a butterscotch stain or Canadian maple! Both are very warm and either... Sign in to see full entry.

As A Single Lady I Contacted A Man On Craigslist! And He Called Me...LOL!

I contacted a man on Craigslist who had advertised making frames! His were made of cedar! I thought it might be nice to have something different! He called me and we talked about the size although I had included it in my email! He said he could make them for $20 each! I told him I was buying a house... Sign in to see full entry.

I Got The Coolest Surprise From My SIL Today! I Mean Coolest Surprise!

Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year! It is the recognition of the birth of my Lord and Savior first and foremost for me! But, I love to give great gifts, that are within my budget, and wrap them in awesome paper with exciting trimming, too! At the end of the season I peruse the stores... Sign in to see full entry.

As The Weekend Comes To A Close, My Angst Begins To Increase...

The weekend is coming to a close and my angst is increasing! I rest the most on the weekend with this waiting to close on my house because I know that nothing will happen! It has helped a great deal! However, I begin the second week of the latest wait for the paper work to come together per the... Sign in to see full entry.

I Got The Deal Of The Century Today! How Utterly Fortunate For Me?

I have the good fortune to get a Barnes and Noble gift card each year for a Christmas gift! I had planned to buy bookends this year but I couldn't warm up to any they had to offer at the store today! So I browsed the bargains. I picked up a couple of books I liked then I can across an M.C. Escher... Sign in to see full entry.
