Target

So, Dolly Parton is doing the music for a Target commercial. Really? Is she coming back? I heard on NPR a couple of weeks ago that they are doing a Broadway Musical of the movie 9 to 5 and apparently Dolly has written all the scores. Should be interesting maybe not good, but interesting. Please, do tell if you see it.

Our tile has arrived

Our tile for our bathroom arrived today. After work we drove the truck down to pick it up and it looks good! I can't wait to get it on the floor and walls. I'll get some pictures before because it will take a few weeks to actually get it in place! My poor husband is about to start another quarter of classes. Check out his art blog!

$2 movie

Last night my husband took me to the $2 movie and we finally saw Kung Foo Panda. It was the funniest cartoon movie I've seen in awhile and it was not crass. Just Kung Foo goodness.

Home Depot

So, last night my handy husband was working on our bathroom and asked me to go to Home Depot for a few things (he didn't want to stop working). He needed more trash bags (I can do that), a faucet for the bathtub (maybe I can do that) and five 2x4s (not so sure about that). Really the thing that worried me the most was having to pull around one of those carts that you put wood in/on. Those things are not the easiest things to maneuver around the store! I did not want to take out any displays Home Depot had set up!

Since he was working so hard I agreed to go. I had to call only once and I thought that was pretty good. I directed the cart around and did not run into anything, even in the parking lot. I loaded my trash bags, tub faucet and five 2x4 in the truck and headed home. When I got there Waymond looked at the 2x4 and said I am indeed my father's daughter. He was impressed! I picked out 2x4s that weren't warped or in too bad of shape. I guess I've seen so many people do it over the years and have been to Home Depot enough that I'm better than I thought but the carts still scare me.

Laundry

So, I was doing some laundry the other night and as I was washing darks I put one of Waymond's hoodies in. It's the very beginning of September and I haven't stopped washing hoodies or long sleeved t-shirts all summer! Summer people. The other day I couldn't remember what season it was. I'm not kidding, I could not remember what season we were in or what one was coming up. Waymond has been wearing long sleeved t-shirts, and hoodies all this summer. Waymond. Now if I said I have been wearing long sleeved t-shirts, and hoodies all summer most people would not think that too crazy (which I have been), but the fact that Waymond has been wearing those things all summer... I'm hopping for a lovely and warm Fall. Yes, I did finally remember that summer is leaving and fall is around the corner. Crazy NW weather!

How cute are these kids

These are my two nephews & niece.
We miss them greatly!

Look Mom

My Mom & Dad mailed me some of their ground cover to see if I could get it to grow on the side of our house. My Dad, who has the green thumb in the family, suggested I plant them in pots first so they could have a chance to grow some roots. They are doing well, I see a few new sprouts. I thought I would plan one of the small pots next weekend and see how it does. When I was in the garage watering them today I saw a small snail. I'm not sure if it came from Oklahoma or is from Washington and found it's way into our garage and my new plants.

The trash pile

Now that the demo is finished we have to clean our garage from all the trash. This is what came out of our bathroom.

Demo complete

Waymond helped me and we finished the demo. Truth be told he did most of the work, but I did help.

We picked our tile, a vanity and such. We already have our two sinks, the toilet and a few plumbing things.

It's coming along nicely. I can't wait to see the final product.
