Hi all! Once again I have fallen short of 'normal.' So what was it TODAY, Wendy?? Since you asked so nicely? I'll tell you. Today Dennis and I FINALLY got going on the sitting room again. For those of you 'in the know' that would be the outside and final wall. Dennis took down the wall heater and took it outside. His contribution. Me, I had to take off the remaining trim board [including around the door] , take down the blinds, cover the windows, clean-up the mess, and get the wall heater ready for new paint. I did well with most of it. However, I would like just 10 minutes ALONE with the person who re-installed the trim board after my floors were laid. Someone should inform him that somehow, someday, someone might be taking that board down again so '6 inch nails' were totally inappropriate. [did you get my 'play on words? I'm so clever!] Anyway, that was not my 'abby normal' action. My abby normal was covering the windows after the blinds were down. Originally I planned to hang sheets but as we are trimming around the windows, sheets would have gotten in the way. Then I has a 'bright light' cover only the windows and use the brown packaging roll of paper I have. That worked so well. [if you don't count the jagged edges] It worked so well right up until I ran out of paper with 1 and 1/2 panes to go. What to do???? I know, that Christmas paper I bought at Christiansen's had a brown back. Oh it worked so very well AND was much neater. So the problem Wendy??? Well, there wasn't one UNTIL I walked outside to take Breane to school and realized I had installed it so that the Christmas print faced OUTSIDE! Abby Normal. Hugs to all!

Ha, Ha that sounds like something I would do, hugs mommy. I love you.
That's funny - what you should do is go find some Valentine's wrapping paper and use it -- then everyone will "Look at Wendy's - Isn't she so festive!!!" Or if you are lazy like me -- you'll just leave it so people can say "What in the world is going on over at the Doyle's - has Wendy lost it!!!"
Yuck. I hate remodel jobs. After I finish the baseboards and trim work, I am taking ALL the tools outside. Out of sight out of mind. :)
New day, new problem. The shelf [yes, I finally FINISHED it] No longer fits in it's given spot. How can that be??? I didn't move the screws. Dennis says I used thick paint. Yeah right!
Home projects it never ends!!
