Maybe Better, Maybe Worse

Okay, so I did some playing with the blog tonight. Two of the pictures are .gif files, but not playing, so if you know more about a computer than I do, advice is welcome. Otherwise, if you like the changes, I'll take your honest feedback. If not, no need to share!! :o)

As always, more to come as the time & motivation strike the same place at the same time!

Decorating Weekend

Robin and I got a much needed weekend together over Labor Day weekend. Part of that time was spent on some decorating decisions about our new home together, some of which I was able to put into play this weekend.

All of our “free” art found a home and is now hanging throughout the house.

Also, prior to Saturday, our front door was an open invitation to look right in. That’s no longer the case. While I won’t discourage anyone from using the window clings sold at Lowes and Home Depot, give me a call before you do. I have some lessons learned that I can share from my wonderful experience. (Anyone sense the sarcasm?) The final product does look pretty good though, and privacy is given along with UV rays blocked out!

Here’s the link to view my handy work, next week its blinds for the back door and other projects!

Forgotten Move Pictures

Cleaning out my phone a little, I found two forgotten pictures from our ride here. While they shared the back seat most of the ride, Peanut is used to sitting up front, so I eventually gave in to his requests, and he sat by my side as my trusty co-pilot.

Bobo on the other hand, was passed out on the cooler most of the trip, which I felt was a priceless picture.

Enjoy!

1/2 Moved

Just checking in, I know it’s been a while since I’ve added anything.

The first part of our move was a great success. Mom and I moved a FULL UHaul safely, and nothing was found to be in pieces. We’ve got some great neighbors here, and the dogs have really taken to the house. So, for now, Peanut, Bobo, & I are taking care of the yard, making new friends, and preparing the house to be full as soon as possible.

I’ll throw in a couple pictures of the boys below just for kicks. Peanut LOVES the fact that there are some windows his height (to the floor) so that he can survey what’s going on. Bobo sleeps, but that’s what a Bobo does.

Robin came to see the three of us over Labor Day. We got some much needed time together. We were also able to pick the location for some art, some additions, and some deletions, which should keep me out of trouble the next couple months!

For those who haven’t gotten it, the new address is 41 Seminole Circle, Stuarts Draft 24477.

Hope everyone has a great fall and back to school season, more to come as the wedding draws near!

New Home!!!

I'm no photographer, and somehow, I forgot to take a picture of the swing set, but Robin & my week in and around the Charlottesville area did result in a new home contracted for purchase. Follow the link below to see some pictures of the five bedroom home that is actually located in Stuarts Draft, VA.

We're both busy this weekend in catching up with our households from a week away, so I'm going to say more to come, and sign off for now....
