43 Down 7 to go - More Spring Cleaning & a Project Almost Finished!

 Hi Y'all - this is Paula!

REMEMBER OUR GIVEAWAY!!!

Coming soon to Lulu's Blog!

We now have 43 followers!  WhoooHooo!  Remember that when we hit the big 5-oh  we will have a Give-A-Way!  Jennifer and I scoured the area last weekend to search for just the perfect goodies to send to someone on our list.  We can't wait!  =)

SPRING CLEANING

Jennifer and I forgot that when we were Spring cleaning last week we didn't clean the bedroom side of the house.  So today we tackled that job and loved every minute of it!  I mean, who doesn't enjoy cleaning out closets and saying to self, "Why in the world did I ever buy that?; throwing out junk that has been accumulated; sneezing like mad because of all the dust; and finding dead bugs that have crawled under the bed or dresser.  Yuck!  Jennifer only spent four, count them 4, hours in her bathroom alone!  What does that tell us?!?  =)   I sure know what it tells me!!!  LOL!

A PROJECT

I was so hoping to have photos to show you of the project that I did today, but it was too dark to take photos when I finished,  I'll photograph and show you tomorrow.  Here's a hint: the new neighbors who just moved in next door put out a shelf-like-thingy on the curb.  I saw it late one afternoon and thought, "I could surely do something with that."  So, when darkness covered the earth, I went out into the alley and took it!  Really, lugged is a better descriptive term because it was quite cumbersome.  Today I worked it over.  Removed shelves, added shelves, used the power saw!!!  I'm so proud of myself for measuring and cutting - and I only messed up one board.  Not bad for me.  I may be better at this wood stuff then I am at sewing.  When I sew I am forever ripping out.  Very impatient, I am.  Kind of difficult to be impatient when working with power tools - impatience could cause accidents!  More tomorrow!

Hope that all of you are having a good week - nothing too exciting and nothing too boring.  Just the perfect mix of weekday niceness.
