((((((2k)))))))

yup.. and their own private rooms

HEY watch where yer sittin sis..

you'll HAVE to.. I'm sending the furniture out for cleaning


((((((sis))))))


OM GAWD I type faster than the site
a 1...
'n a 2...
'n a 3.... holy Toledo.. they sure have a slow clock.. that 2 mins was up well.. 3 mins ago

one of the up sides of workin with the USA is that I get holidays many Canadians (if ANY) DON'T get and currently.. I gots a 5 day weekend


with tons to do of course
I'm FINALLY putting together the bed frame I designed and built out of cedar.. man that room smells awesome
pulled out all the fabric too and have been measuring and making the pattern designs I'll need to cut and sew it.. gotta get the sewing machine fixed first I've taken pics of the 'before' and I'll take some 'after' ones too.. maybe even post'em here I'm a lil proud of all my hard work and efforts

anywho.. ALL the christmas shopping is DONE.. just waiting for a few items from overseas and I'll be all set! then the week before I'll find THE perfect tree (for me ) and get to decorating I've already started re-arranging the furniture in the living room just need help to get the exercise equipment downstairs though.. I'll get my eldest to help

on another note.. thankfully.. work has been pretty steady.. got another contract starting dec. 1st (day we get back) until February.. which is wild cuz the past few years we've been off mostly during those times.. and I've another one I was working on up to yesterday, to finish by the 5th.. so like I said.. fairly steady..YIPEE

life has been fairly sedate.. sleep, eat, exercise, work, housework, reno's, repeat.. plus babysitting my g-baby.. he's such a cutie.. we have soo much fun together and I just LOVE the way he lights up when I walk into the room I'm soo looking forward to this Christmas with him here.. he loves laughing and singing, such a joy to be around!

one last tidbit to share before get back to life.. some weeks ago I stopped at a garage sale I was passing, don't know why but something urged me to.. boy was I GLAD I DID! a woman was selling duvet covers, gorgeous box, king sized ones.. she had 1 left in its original packaging.. must have cost a good $400 (by my research after the fact).. I drooled over it a moment, smiled at the women (softly sighed to myself) then starting walking away when she stopped me asking if I'd be interested.. I said I would be but because I didn't have much cash on me (I rarely carry more than $20 at any given time, being mugged once already taught me THAT lesson)but asked out of curiosity, how much was she selling it for.. she said being it was her last one, she'd take $40 for it well I was by that response.. however I admitted I had only the $20 (I was pulling out of my pocket).. she looked at me ponderously for a moment and said "I'll take it!" I was FLOORED! however I've been happily sleeping under it since the weather turned bitter last week.. and MAN what an amazing sleep I had THAT night (and every other night since).. simply AWEsome! when I inquired as to why she let it go for so cheap, she said "you look like someone who would appreciate it!" she was soo right

well peeps.. have a GREAT thanksgiving holiday.. be safe.. gobble gobble!

just wanted to add.. for all those lurkers that read ma posts.. the scammers are ON THE FORUMS.. just sayin.. I've spotted a few that have posted.. so beWARE friends.. they're starting to up their game

I still have to decorate the house...

admittedly, it's been a GREAT 'weekend' so far.. had a lil snow to shovel (typically when I awake) so I'm getting lots of exercise!!! just not the type I enjoy thankfully there's sunshine and blue skies today.. still have a few pieces of wood to cut and stain for the casing and bed (came up with another idea for the top of the 4 poster that's gonna be SOO much nicer AND easier to manage the curtains with ) then I gots LOTS of sewing to do..

anywho.. best get back to it.. however much I'd like to do a "Jeannie" head nod and be DONE with it.. I'm merely a mortal

enjoy your Saturday

Hi ((()sis)))

It was an ok holiday. My parents being who they are pissed the kid and I off a bit so we left a day early. No I don't feel bad about it either. It was a good way to avoid a major blow out.

We are hoping to hear by Wednesday about our apt and then we start the moving process again. Sigh

Think I'll need lots of these

Um, about the refrigerator with its freezer at the bottom ...



I already cleaned it out.

sucks about your parents'n the kid.. but you did the only thing you could (exactly as my dad used to say) "walk away slowly and don't shake up the smell" you go girl!!

only 2 more sleeps and you'll have some good news I hope.. regardless how much it sucks having to pack, unpack and repeat.. at least you're where you want to be most.. betcha it feels good to be back "home" as it were

I'll keep supplying'em.. as long as ya need'em
I'm just glad you got there safely
