Clothes, huh? Yes, I bet it can be a lot of fun, shopping for new clothes and knowing that you have the job to pay for them. Enjoy it! I have to chuckle, I always joke with people that I go to work half naked... ya know... it's a somewhat clothing optional job? Pool attendant... it's a tough gig for those 3 months a year that I "work"! The money is not much, I only do it part time... that's all I can handle with my health issues. It's also only about a block away so it's very convenient. Oh, but the human contact makes it all worthwhile. For those 3 months I truly treasure the conversation, the laughing children, the waves from passersby, the smiles on the faces of those who enter and sign in. I would probably do my "job" for free if they needed me to. If you love where your at, and who your with, it isn't "work" at all! I hope you love your new job!!

Sounds delish. I dunno about the papaya salad though--report back! I love Thai fried rice, that's my "go to" version of fried rice. And spring rolls are also favorites. I never make them though, due to all the prep, so you must have some special, lucky friends!

The description was something I worked on one morning and am now at the point where I'm stuck and can't figure out wording to change it. I have to be in the mood to sit and type something out, which is why I posted it, hoping someone would take it on. I never thought of the man / crawl space / boat thing, but will keep it in mind if I do get the chance to rewrite. With school in it's last few days & graduation I'm not sure I will have time. I also had something else fall in my lap that needs my attention more. The features I included are things that need to be spelled out (except the name of the pavers) because, being surrounded by lakes, most houses don't have boat parking. It's common to see boats on the front lawn :( - also being close to the lakes, many houses do not have basements; so the space where the water heater, softener and what ever else is down there is, is a major plus. If anyone's ever worked on a house with only a crawl that has outside access, it's the pits, especially in the winter when you have to dig it out to access the stuff. I agree about a larger green plant and have been shopping for one since February but have been unable to find them. Until this morning I never thought to look at Depot. I'm not a member of Costco any more; BJ's doesn't have it. I've been to every major store. The living room has more stuff in storage that we are debating bringing back. It will take a few hours to dig it out. The right corner actually has my vac which is covered with a doll I made. I grabbed the potted rose from the dining room for the pic. The 3 silk plants were purchased locally the day the realtor came to take the pics because it needed something & living where I do, we don't have many stores. Walmart is 30 minutes away. The realtor doesn't have the office pic up, I hoped she would but chose other shots instead. The master wasn't ready when she came and I haven't had time to get back there to take pics. Our realtor doesn't like to post bathroom or bedroom pics, something about personal spaces, but we'll try to get a master shot in. I live in the pines. A day of shopping means leaving at 8 and coming back at 3. I've done more trips then my body can stand. I will be going out today to do returns, not sure my back can handle looking for more props. Tricia, the fridge is not in the picture. In the pic, you see the built in freezer; the fridge in to the left of that. If we were staying, I would redo the cabinets, putting a pantry type one where the cookbook shelf is. The trash usually sits there, I took it out for the pic. I haven't posted the realtor.com link. IMO the pics were too low resolution and look grainy. I have to sift through the shots I have and send the originals to the realtor. She may end up posting the pics she took. She was having computer issues which is why she used mine. I'm so anal after reading here, I took my own shots just in case I didn't like the ones that were taken. Since mine were edited 1st, she went with it.

It's all over (for now). They gave me iv sedation, stuck a catheter in my arm and went to work. Found a narrowing around my shoulder, got it fixed to 9 centimeters but found a clot so they stopped, patched me up and sent me home. They'll go back in next Thursday, get out the clot, and restretch the opening to 12 cm. Well, I'm comfortable and it's all okay to resume regular dialysis tomorrow. Yes, it's very similar to angioplasty, which my husband had on his heart afew years ago. Thanks everyone for your good wishes and prayers! I love everyone on Kitchen Table. You all are the greatest!
