Happy birthday **Nellie**! The world became a kinder place when you were born 🙂

Hurray! Now STAY HOME!!!

Do you have a medical plan to avoid more of this in the future or did they just send you home to figure it out?

If they have nice frames, send them to the thrift store. Used frames tend to sell very well as long as they are in good shape.

And I do understand what you mean. The things on our walls have meaning to us, they won’t be special to anyone else.

Happy madness, I hope it all went well.

There wasn’t a lot of traffic on the way to the capital and not a whole lot of cars driving by either. High gas prices tend to restrict weekend shopping trips, I’ve noticed the lack of tourist traffic on the highway as well.

George got his loveseat back yesterday, but the trim still feels too soft to trust so nothing is going back on the walls yet. I don’t get the paint issues. We bought Sherwin Williams because I wanted something durable and we both kinda thought that was good quality paint.

I used the Lowes brand of paint in our last place and it dried in a couple of hours. I guess I shoulda cheaped out this time too.

So I have a documentary ready to watch and my project is sitting right here, so I guess I’ll just play with string for the rest of the evening. Have great rest of the day, everyone!
