I missed the last one because we were out of town. I just finished painting a few rooms and have none left for touch ups so I will have to keep my eyes open, this would be perfect.

oh that is a great idea I have been wanting to get some that matches the paint that is in my entire house, we have none at all for touch ups. thanks for the reminder

We are having a heat wave. it's about 2pm and its 90 degrees in the shade. I have to remind myself that I am lucky I have AC and can run it at will. I'll be 75yo this week and I bought myself an electric guitar, the thing is, I don't know anything about music, let alone a guitar. But it is so good for my brain to learn something new, that I'll keep practicing. There are some super videos for beginner players on the net. DD and GS are coming on Saturday to help me celebrate my B-day. There is a method to my madness. When I'm done with the guitar, I'll give it to my GS. His dad is a great guitar player, so GS will have a good teacher. I have just about finished two guest rooms. I shopped mostly from our house, nothing fancy, but I hope our guests will be comfortable. DH has a very old car, the benefit is that it has very few computer features, so he can fix just about anything else. The other benefit is that the older the car, the less we pay in registration fees. We've saved a lot of money over the years. My favorite necklace broke, and I'm looking to make one with the beads I bought at an estate sale for $4.00, I have to go and buy some spacer beads, but I have everything else I'm looking for some cooler weather, LOL, rob, you asked.

WTG! (or WTKG?-- way to keep going). It sounds like the dumpster was well worth it. After DH and I bought our house, it seemed like everybody and his brother was renovating a house and the local waste management places did not have any dumpsters to rent out. We needed to get rid of a houseful of carpet and padding. Fortunately, the backyard is enclosed and we live in a place where it doesn't rain much (and didn't that whole summer), so we ended up slicing up the carpet and filling the big, rolling garbage bin about halfway with carpet each week-- for weeks and weeks on end. We did eventually get rid of it, but I'm always reminded about how you eat an elephant, one bite at a time. You can't do everything with a regular trash can, but you can do a lot! Especially if you pace yourself. The Barbies sound important to you. Maybe they are worth putting up on ebay?
