Jean,
I meant to ask you - who did that cake??? Those pictures and colors are just amazing!!! Even showed hubby and he was amazed!!!!
Well hubby and I finally got our pantry closet finished in our trailer. What has been keeping me hopping lately is that we found a trailer park not far from our apartment, that will let us park our trailer on a month to month basis with full hookup. So hubby and I are going to fully move into the trailer and get out of our apartment by the end of August when our lease is up. We still have a few little changes/updates to make to the trailer before we take off on our great adventure, but it's coming along. Of course, I have the panic feelings of getting everything done in time. Hubby wants to have everything in the trailer and what we can't take packed up and ready to move it into storage in Ohio by the 9th of August!!!!!! No pressure - - - really!!!!! I'm having to go through every box that we have in our apartment and determine what we take in the trailer, what we want to store for the next 5-7 years, and what we just need to get rid of. Why does it always have to happen in 4 weeks or less?????? Say a prayer for me that I get all this accomplished in the next 4 1/2 weeks!!!!

Still home? Seems my phone wanted to continue this....LOL Praying the weather and the work situation improve soon.
Hope everyone had a good weekend. I finished patina the night stand. Turned into a 2 day project thanks to the wind. I was going to redo my kitchen yesterday, but said nope, and went to the beach instead...LOL
Japan hope you find that job, and get to work from home. :-)

Linda Congrats! Way to go, you should be proud! Good luck on the masters! Know you will kick a.. There too!
Anna, what is wrong with these Men! Or so called men!
Happy you will be seeing the whole family! I know you will have fun at the shower, and Happy Birthday to your girls!
Andrea, the things us moms sacrifice for our kids! But you will soon be relaxing on the beach with Rachael! Sorry the dog kept you up. They need a thunder shirt for it. Crystal has one for Sprite, it helps a lot. Praying no storm tonight, and you get sleep.
Blondie, I know you are having fun with your girl!
Finished my first project for the summer, well it was supposed to be done by Bruce, but well... We were given a night stand by a neighbor, so I sanded and painted it. The first time I ever painted funiture, I usually restrain, but decided, why not, less work..LOL Just waiting for it to dry, put on the new handles and done.
