Chilly morning~!

It certainly doesn't feel much like Spring this morning... quite chilly and I am debating how warm to dress; I think layers will be my best bet. I awoke with an awful headache this morning perhaps while I am on vacation I will go in to see the Dr. First I have to take Tara, Tesla and Amelia into the vet. I think rest and vegging around will do me a world of good. I think Scott and I have nixed the idea of going out of town this weekend as we are both committed to the den to dining room conversion now. Knowing us it probably won't stop there even if it should as the kitchen will be next on the list and it is attached to this room we've started. And Scott and I are both bad about going full throttle into anything we do... we will probably hurt our middle aged bodies too; we still haven't learned how to pace ourselves too well. Time to get into work.

Little Nickie - HOME!

Well Little Nickie has a couple severe bite wounds and will be on antibiotics for awhile. He stinks SO BAD! He will be staying on the porch for another day or two. Hopefully I will be able to get him in to be neutered while I am on vacation as well... that'll chill his jets! Perhaps he'll stay in our yard a bit more and a little less with the nasty harem down the street.

Today and Tomorrow

With any kind of good luck I will get thru the next two days and then it's VACATION TIME!Yeah!I really need to get my desk cleared off and things in the right place just in case auditors show up while I am off. Which is entirely possible. All I really want to do is start vacation NOW!

I had to run Greg's cat, Little Nickie over to the vet as Saturday night he showed up back home all wet and beat up with blood EVERYWHERE. We have kept him confined since then so he wouldn't get in anymore fights. But he will require antibiotics and attention from Dr. Kelly. She is so GREAT with our animals. I am only hoping to find a vet near the property that is as good or better than her. Wednesday I will take Tara over for shots and to see why she is wasting away. Not sure if it's parasites or the fact that she is getting old. Poor girl looks so bad! Tesla and Amelia also need shots and checkups. I may end up sending a small fortune over there while on vacation but everyone will be up to date. Well the Vet's office just called and Nick is ready to come home.

Remodeling Underway!

Scott and I emptied the book cases in the den yesterday and we have a lovely stack of books to be donated to His House or Children's Hospital and now we have begun ripping out the shelves. It sure will open things up and the change will be fantastic! We plan to put in some glass fronted cabinets with space above for a couple antique mirrors or framed art on each side of the fireplace.
Here are a couple photos of the progress thus far - don't you love the 1960's Robin Egg blue?!

Rosewood Market

Well Scott and I went out to the market and no flower show so we went on to Rosewood Market and bought some organic foods and had lunch there. YUMMY! Then we came home and started to unload the shelves in the den as we are planning to rip them out and install new cabinets before we turn that room into our dining room. So far my discard pile is bigger than Scott's but thats ok... as long as we are down sizing a bit. I love our books but do not want to move that many when the time comes. We are thinking "total enjoyment"... if we don't get a response from an article it's out of here. No point keeping EVERYTHING! Too much "stuff" leads to a cluttered overwhelming life... got enough of that at work. It's been so nice having today off.

Saturday OFF!

Yeah! A Saturday off to spend the day with my husband. I've turned my cell phone off as I really need the time and day away from the store completely! I work 3 days next week and then start my vacation... YEAH! I'll be able to clean and organize my sewing room and perhaps even get a bit of sewing done. If I do sew up some goodies I will try to post some pictures. I have some fabric that I bought to make a suite out of perhaps I will get that done while on vacation.

It's looking like rain for today and I wouldn't mind that a bit as we need the rain badly. Well Coffee is ready!

DUM DUM DE DUM!

Today's my first Regional Visit and I am just hoping to survive the day.
