Tuesday, September 9, 2008

Today was a blast! Mom came down to the library to help with a project and she did a great job! When she arrived, Jeff Olisky was here waiting for a friend, so mom visited a bit. When she finished her little project, Karen arrived and the three of us had lunch with Bobbi Jo, Jessie, Ayden and Laura. A good time was had by all.

Though I got a lot of work done I was glad to go home and see my dog!!! Mom was there too as we had made plans. We shot over quickly to JoAnn's. I found the most perfect fabric for valances in the bedroom, which mom will work on this week. Yeah! It only took me 2 years, but I was finally able to make a decision! Whoo hooo!!!

Then it was home to the condo and Jadey and Pootie where I made the most delicious Chicken Parm. I'm quite impressed with myself if I do say so myself! It was my first try, based on Corey's instructions, and it turned out delish. Quite a success if I say so myself. Then mom stayed and we watched the second National Treasure movie on DVD. It didn't get over until 8:15, but I think we both enjoyed it. Of course Corey was home for dinner and the movie too, but he went and watched Baseball with the dog while mom and I hogged the couch.

Also, Laura helped me pick out a color of paint for the living room yesterday. It is Sherwin Williams Insightful Rose. Sounds and looks a bit purpley, but when viewed off the color card it is very mild. I'm impressed with my pick. Should match the carpet nicely and I'm also looking forward to losing the cold, Smurf blue of the one wall in the living room. Ca-ca. I can't wait to get the walls and trim painted and then get the new sofa and love seat next Wednesday. Should look fantastic!!

All in all it was a great way to spend the day! Just the best!
