Trim Is Up

there is it - the red pinstripe. looks great. this is the east wall.
here is the north wall - looks like the other wall, but it is so nice to have done that i had to include both perspectives.... lol (the picture was painted for my b-day by my grandma - mom's mom..)


hey all,

i have a wonderful announcement (just a bit of drama) the trim is up. my wonderful handyman took a few hours today to cut and fit all the trim. he used a new table saw given to him for christmas (thank you mom..), a wonderful scroll saw (thank you phil and kathy...), nails and hammer (thank you me - i just really wanted to give him something helpful too....), and a great little miter box he made. the room looks fabulous. we are both so happy with the walls. i will patch and touch-up this next week. just so glad to get it up and mostly finished. we both are very glad it is almost done. i think hunny's part is finished in here (and the peasants rejoice...)

he also figured out the mechanical part of the couch and we bought hardware tonight. (i actually had the hardware turned inside, upside-down, or something. just was not going together and looked a bit spastic. HE FIGURED IT OUT - and i knew he could. i did however insist on him letting me show how far i DID get on it all. he said he was impressed and i am smart. what a great man....)

we crashed for about 5 minutes this afternoon and then went to the opening oru basketball game. hunny put the audio mix for the players intro video together at work last week. the mix was pretty hard to hear - quite muddy sounding. the game was good - refs had a hard time seeing, but it seems that every game i attend the refs make crummy calls. maybe i should stop going.. even tho i hardly ever go already....... i like real live games!!! and don't WANT to stop going.

last but not least we stopped for pizza and then came home. so we are stuffed, and really tired. i will call it a night (um good morning actually) and see you tomorrow.

love to you all,
me
