Tuesday, Late post

With Hub's mom here, we have been playing musical chairs.  Hubs and I each have our favorite spot in our family room.  Mine is by the large window as I like to sew in natural light when doing hand work.  I have a table to hold drinks and things.  Hub's place is over by the bookcase, and he sits on one end of the sofa with a side table and an overhead hanging lamp.  This allows him light to read which he does for hours a day and also allows him a good view of the TV.

This third chair is not used much but with three of us here, we can turn this chair to face the TV.  It had no lamp to read and no table.  So, we were always switching places according to who was doing what.

I went to TJMaxx today and Ross to see if I could find a small table and I did, and then floor lamp.  The gold in the lamp matches the studs in the chair and the little round tv table can be put over the chair to get it out of the way or to be used to eat something.  I don't know why I did not do this before.  I guess because three people have never lived here. The cord for the lamp goes under the rug. Well, I think Hub's has found himself a new spot as this is closer to the TV and he can hear it better. Really should have done this ages ago. 

I was just busy today, doing laundry and cleaning and shopping. Almost all Christmas is down.  Missionaries came over to put away boxes in the garage for us, so neither of us had to climb ladders. There are still thigs to put away in the front room as in boxes, but I can wait until they come for dinner next Sunday.  Now it is just mom's linens and the tree, so I feel like I am well on the road to having things cleaned up.

Daughter and I went out to look for a new living room set for her.  She has specific wants and she will have to check a few more places before making a decision.

I need to run to Joann's for some zippers and I also stood on our shower curtain hooks while I was switching out the linens and broke three of them, so I must run get a new set.

Kelsa was here today for a few hours, and she will now walk behind a little pushcart, but Grandpa must walk with her up and down the hall.  She screams if he sits down.  He has created the monster now he has to live with it.


Eldest daughter and family, she said it only took 10 minutes of screaming to get this picture.  I remember those days.  Middle daughter said Christmas eve she was yelling at her husband and Schmills, "This house has to sparkle, or I am taking away Christmas."  Ah motherhood, if it was meant to be easy, it would not have stated out with something called labor.

Don't these two just look like attorneys, and son in law is a water law attorney, the geek of all attorneys. Or so says daughter who is just a geek.

Well, I am off to finish my chores.  Get to work will you guys?  I mean really days a wasting.

Have a great and productive day staying positive while you are in the negative.
