Okay. just another dfay in paradise... fried the motherbord on my laptop; it is in the shop. Got out the desktop and found it doesn't have bluetooth, and the cable STILL isn't hooked up, so coughed up $22 and signed up for earthlink via the phone line, which I will cancel in a few weeks... but wanted to share with you all...
1. Picked up some 60 Dracena (sp???) plants on freecycle and got them planted in the back yard. Woo Hooo...
2. Got a couple brave souls to accompany me to a desolate roadside area where I removed some cool leafy plants to test out in the garden... they look like a cross between tobacco and a giant taro....
3. GOT THE HOUSE FINALED!! Had to do a few (I think) stupid things and got it done in a day. Proves that it CAN be done without death, hysteria or permanant brain damage.
4. Bank sent out the appraiser and his jaw dropped. He has given us a very low (I thought ) appraisal from our original plans, though he seemed to think that anything over half a mil was amazing . He came throug the house now and just said,
Well, I guess we will be making some significant revisions. I had no idea..." As long as the tax man doesn't see it... LOL
We made some major compromises from the original plans and we will be working on the lanai railing and stairs slowly, but things are great. Kitchen is a dream; master bath is luxurious and the fireplace is cozy....
Pammie is a happy camper. Come on over and see the improvements if you dare... or do I have to host another Punatic Party??
Just another day in P A R A D I S E !!

I want to be the kind of woman that, when my feet
hit the floor each morning, the devil says
"Oh Crap, She's up!"
