A New Earth!

So who is reading this and involved in Opras on line class with Tolle? This is a wonderful time for me to have been given the gift being apart of this. It is only the 2nd chapter and I am so into this. It just drew me to it and I am connecting with so much of what I am reading. I am not a good reader, my eye's work individually and my sight is so poor I have my glass's on while I read and I have to use a magnifying glass as I do as well. But I am finding I don't care, I am getting through it and am devouring all I can.
The kitchen is still in the work's. we are in the 7th month now. We may very well hit a year, specially by the time I get flooring and apply., but that's Ok, I am so lucky to have such even going on. So many could use such as well and I am sure some more so then I. No I still have no gotten picture moved into this yet, with my husband's help now, am trying to figure out how to get them on my E-mail, let alone my blog. I wish I knew how, but like I said, I am not good on this, but someday I will surprise you!
Be happy and keep a smile on and in your heart!

Blank and Numbed

I wish I was good at this. I still do not know how to get picture's off my Desk Top and to this thing. No one here has time to show me and I felt lucky to have gotten the Shutter Bug disk pictures onto that. I have pic's of my grandson and the kitchen, but do not know how to retrieve them from there. If anyone has a simple directions step by step to help me I would be ever so greatfull. We have window's Inter., explorer by Comcast.

I have upper cabinet's in now, but not ready for staining yet. If you remember the cabinet's were not made for my kitchen, so there are spaces left between some. He is putting in one's he makes to fill them in. One will be next to my stove and I believe will have slatt's to hold my dish's~ cool ~ but get this, there is one in a corner, odd shape ect.. and he made these shelves that have been routered out and will hold wine bottle for me. 2 of them hold 3 and the one between them holds 2. There is a shelf above those 3 that will be for glass's, opener and such, then a top to cap it off. There will be a rope light going across the top of the upper cabinet's which will be so nice looking, has it's own plug in up there and a switch on the wall. Sweet! There is another he is makeing for the left side of the sink that cut's off short, it will have triangle shelves and there doing something there where I can put some fruit or plant's ect..using plexiglass typ container's to sit on them to put what ever in or they can be removed easy. I am not sure what that's is all about quite yet, but sound's interesting.

The old laundry room is gutted and gone, the washer and dryer cant be moved till I get the stacking dryer to go with my new washer, wont fit in the new laundry room~ when they get it built that is. Will be line drying soon as my very old dryer is going out, sound's like a Mac Truck right now. I also have to save for a new water heater and the work's to move it almost to the other end of the house. Relocating it to a better spot, not so far for the water to travil. The new laundry room should be getting fraimed in soon, they have the $ for the wood and pocket door, plumbing wireing ect.. I moved this computer table and a bunch of box's that hold kitchen weares moved out of the corner where the new laundry room closet/half bath will be going. He has the half arched cealing going into the old "L.R." up and most of the wall's have sheet rock up on them~thing's are moving along. We are just starting the 6th month of construction here. Will sure feel blessed to have a full working kitchen in I hope not to much longer.

We have been getting such odd weather this year, more snow then we have seen in year's, but sure not like the piles some friend's are getting in other States like Cat has. Have thick frost this morning, some black ice, which is dreadfull and so dangerouse. I dont mind driving in snow, but that ice!! EEkkksss I am ready to get out in the yard, it's so over grown after the city dug a couple year's ago to put new pipes in the ground, then I had carpol tunnel surgury on both hand's, so it has not had my full loving care for closs to 3 year's now. I am glad it's not the whold yard. I hope all this cold takes care of some of the bug's that were getting way out of control. Our little frog's who live here take care of alot of the slug's for me, bless there heart's, and some mosketos but mostly there baby's that are still in the water. Best time to get them, before they look for me. I would like to make a pond for them someday as they sure like my yard. We will get thousand's of them, you have to watch your step for sure.

I hope to make this a more interesting stop still, if I can ever get those pictures!!!

New Happenings!

I now have a SINK!!! It's wonderful to be washing dish's standing up, my back and knee's are so grateful. I love my new sink, it's a Siligranit (Hope that's spelled right) sink, I believe made from ground granite and a type of plastic or something. It's not real heavy but wont chip, crack, dent, STAIN, nothing! I recommend this to anyone who Cannes food. I can allot of different thing's. Make my own raisin's, strawberry and banana chip's crunchy and our favorit~chewy, Jam's and Jelly's, veggies and fruit of all sort's.
I have a new faucet on this baby too that has the sprayer that you can pull down in the head of it. New disposal but not hooked up to use yet.
I also am going to be getting a used camera from my mom's husband Chuck, thanks Chuck! He has the book and all and when I can get over to pick it up he will show me how to use it so I have a start. I am new toy challenged and takes me for ever to learn this new electronic stuff they have out now day's. Soon as I figure out how to work it I will put pictures on of my kitchen and of me. Hope I don't scare anyone! :)
Blessings and keep a smile!

Happy New Year!

Today is the first day of 2008. I pray all are greeted with Joy, laughter, a big heart for other's, blessing's that there heart desires and needs. May you and your family's prayer's of good health and trouble to go free be granted. May there always be a smile on your face and happiness in your heart.

I am going into this new year with a kitchen that is still not finished. Patience I say, all thing's work out at some point. It has been 4 month's now. I am still blessed with a bath tub to wash my dish's in, an oven that is now plugged in and can be used, counter's unfinished and it's a no no to put anything on them, so cooking is not at it's best by far. We all missed the home made Mint Truffles, Oh Yum, something to think about for a time. Humbous are sticking in thought, pondering the making and enjoyment of there wonderful texture and flavor. One of the first of many missed meal's to come. We have a few teen boy's who cant wait for the home made sour dough pizza I make, with a touch of hickory wonder.
Making myself hungry!
Do hope you enjoyed your Christmas and had a safe new year's.
I am now thinking of a list for thing's to do through the year and getting them on the calender. The ever wanting to loose those pounds all talk off, the garden's to come, sewing project's, canning, Oh, so much we want to do.

New

I have no idea what I am doing yet, nore why really at this point. Just had been asked to do so, so here I am.
I do not have a camera yet to post a picture, if it's of me may scare you anyhow.
I will put a profile of me in here soon as I figure out how.
I usually have alot going on, right now it's my kitchen being remodled. Those of you who have done so know what it can be like.
My daughtor's boyfriend is doing the remodle, with my girl's adding in her say of how it's going to be., Yes, they have had wonderful fight's of "You did this wrong!" "Why did you do that when I was going to? My favorit~Dont go shopping again unless I am there to say yes or no!" Fun~ But I am not involved with it so I feel very blessed. I just say~"What ever you do will be better then what I had" "Sure fine" OK!! Great! :) In other's word's I am just being as agreeable as I can.
The kitchen has been torn out sence the last weekend of Augast~ yes over 3 month's ago now.
I am hoping the sink I ordered will be here soon and maybe, just maybe I can get water going in this end of the house. i wash my dish's in the bathtub and ready what food's I can at the sink in there. Will be glad to have that end. So we are eating alot of that boxed instant typ food's, Frozen ect.. Mind you a little of it is not to bad, but the rest~ Oh my how the heck did it manage to get by anyone and put out for sale!!! Mind you I am a scratch cooker, yes we still exsist! He he I can alot of my own vegie's, jam's and jelly's, fruit, dried, canned and frozen. Vegie's, even make my own raisin's and dry my own hurb's. So eating this faster typ food thing's is upsetting our stomack's terribly causing an array of wonderfull bodily function's I need not go into.
This is boaring and an over dose of my yaking yet to come.
Will get the talk of this kitchen going soon. We have been taking pic's of it all, so soon as I get a camera~~~~;)
