REALLY SORRY

For no posts lately. I have been on Helium, where I have just tied for first place in a contest on the American Revolution. So they gave us both the first place prize, plus the up front money was over 80 dollars, and then whatever I make on these which includes #1 articles that are usually calculated to do well. I just passed the 1500 mark on what I have made.

Slade made curtains for our front room. They are BEAUTIFUL. We have been doing some big time decorating and I will have to post pics. I have curtains and new bedding in my bedroom, with nightstands. I feel like a grownup. But we are switching to king. So changes again soon. There is a K bed at Ikea for 150 that is amazig plus the mattress and topper we are getting used for 100. New K set for 250. Pretty good.
Next is an addition which we will have done, a swimspa that is about to be delivered (a jacuzzi that has a current you can swim against) and the attic rennovation which will create a media room and maybe future beroom for growing teens.

And I have been spending a lot of time on facebook,which is addicting. Those of you that don't do it should try or at least sign up and friend the main people you talk with on it.

So glad to see a new post - I don't do Facebook - am afraid it would suck my life away. I hear it's addicting!

How's fall in the Willamette Valley? Come see us in Utah soon!

It's good to her from you, I know you must be so busy with those adorable kids!

The Helium news is really great! The Arizona Republic is always trying to recruit from our news paper and they only pay 50.00 for a freelance article! That's only if they publish it and may take up to a year to pay. No expenses are covered!
