Well, what's been going on lately?  For starters- yesterday was mine and hubby's 17th anniversary!!!  I cannot believe I have survived- I mean, been married!!- that long.   Actually, I love my husband very much and also have learned to live with the man- and he has learned to live with me.  That takes YEARS- so all you gals thinking you can't make it, just remember why you married him in the first place and expand your hearts.  It's definitely not an easy and not always fun and happy road, but it's worth sticking it out with a good guy.

We had a fun weekend.  For our anniversary, George got me a tray ful of blooming tulip bulbs!  So I planted those today.  We decided to just stay in, so I fixed him a really delicious dinner and we just hung out and relaxed.  Then, we started talking about a lighting/wiring project in the living room... one thing led to another... and now we have ladders and drills and holes in the wall and ceiling and wires sticking out!!!  hahaha!  It's a good thing, though.  I am going to get my porch light WORKING (it has not worked in years) plus we're putting up a new one (that we bought years ago!!). I am going to have a pendant hanging over the entry door so when I come home, I can just flip on the light and SEE!!  (We live in an old house, so lighting is not always convenient!  I often come home to pitch blackness- and I have a black cat who is always on the ready to dash out!!).  I am also going to have a sconce on a narrow wall next to our fireplace.  That is going to be on a dimmer!  Yay!!!  My little digital camera has really come in handy because I can hold it inside the holes we make and take a picture and then we can see what's going on in there!!  My husband is very handy, and loves to do wiring projects.  He's practically rewired this entire old house.  Anywhere I want a light or an outlet or whatever- he can do it!!

I decided to take him shopping at TJ Maxx for a belated birthday/anniversary present, and got him some much-needed new clothes.  Since he's lost so much weight, most of his old clothes are really baggy, so we've been trying to build up a skinny wardrobe for him! haha!

Tomorrow evening I go in to my nails filled.  I've had gel nails... but I am really toying with having her switch them over to acrylic.  She said she can get the acrylic much more perfect because it's easier to work with.  I may give them a run and see what I think.. haven't decided yet.

Then on Wednesday we are driving up to visit George's sister and for his great-niece's 1st birthday.  She's a real cutie.

Today I mowed my grass- really needed it! played around in my yard.  Created a bird bath out of clay pots!  I'll post a pic of that once I get it just right.

Okay- it's getting late, and we still haven't eaten dinner- the day gets away from us when we are involved in a house project.  Till next time!!
