Snapshot of My Weekend


Good Morning! I walked again this am-yay! Now we'll just have to see if I get to say the same thing Friday morning :0)

On Friday, I decided to finish painting our bathroom. When we first moved in, I had painted it a light aqua blue called "Sea turtle". Then we decided to do some changes(I painted th vanity and we're replacing the medicine cabinet w/ a newer version). We realized that it would cost too much to replace the vanity top. It's a light red/mauve color. So, I thought "Why not paint the walls a light green and play up the red accents." Well, the first color, Palmetto, looked good on the paint chip, but oh man did it make the b/r look small!

So, Saturday, I ran back to W/M and picked out another color. White Wine. It looks alot better. I'll try to get a pic posted later today. Plus, I bought an over-the -toilet shelf that I'm going to try to assemble today :0) I have the whole look in my head, it's just finding all the right colors and accessories to pull it together.

On Sunday, I felt yucky all day. Argued w/ Charlie. We went to eat lunch at Smokey Bones and then to the park to feed the ducks ( & pidgeons, fish & turtles) then to Sonic for ice cream. It was all very nice, but I just couldn't get to feeling like myself. But thank goodness, I'm feeling better today.

Has anybody ever had ebay pull a listing off? They've pulled almosy siz of mine in the last week. The first five were because I had them listed in the wrong category. That was fine, they were some old copies of P/B that I just want to get rid of. I was supposed to put hem in an Adult/Mature cat. But nothing ever said so when I first listed them. I corrected it, but it still felt like being called to the principals office! Then today, I got an email about another listing, they said they pulled it because I had too much for s/h. They said I had $26, but if it's true, it must have been an accident. I have never charged that. I place mine where it calculated shipping based on weight to your address. And the thing was going to end tomorrow and I had one watcher! Argh!!!

SOUP OF THE DAY:

Be not the slave of your own past-plunge into the sublime seas, dive deep and swim fas, so you shall come back with self-respect, with new power, with an advanced experience that shall explain and overlook the old.

~Raiph Waldo Emerson

DESSERT OF THE DAY:
Happiness resides not in possessions and not in gold, the feeling of happiness dwells in the soul.

~Democritus
