* My name finally came to the top of the waiting list for the complex I was considering and they asked me to come and take a look. It was a one-bedroom unit and it was quite nice but I said "no". My furniture wouldn't fit in it. I swear they lie on the dimensions of the rooms. I did like the kitchen but even it wouldn't hold my table and chairs as well as I'd like. I think a two-bedroom would be better -- maybe. I've pretty much decided to stay where I am -- it isn't perfect but I have room and good neighbors mostly so here I am and here I'll stay -- for now anyway. Some of you who are newer here might want to see my home and a while back I did a series and posted photos here, here,and here, And who wants to move during an Ohio winter?
* I'm actually going to be social for a change! I've been invited to a friend's gallery for the opening of an exhibit of quilts Friday night and on Saturday the Symphony is doing Bartok, Mozart and Liszt. I get to dress up twice! Cool, huh? My black dresses have been screaming "Wear me!" so I will.
* Here's a funny Photshop my friend Blue Gal made. Check out her blog -- and the Friday podcast -- it's some of the best, no-nonsense, liberal thinking around!
And here's Anthony Weiner talking sense again!!! I'm thinking that I like this guy a lot!
Hope y'all are having a great day!!!!!

Yes, I am thank you for asking. Dinner is a nuke and eat meal, and I have caught up with most of my blogging friends. Amazing that.
ReplyDeletei like Blue Gal! thanks for the tip....
ReplyDeleteas for moving in winter....gaack
thursday's been a good day for you. and I sympathize with your need for a kitchen with a table and chairs. In my house, I had a kitchen so big that I had a reading couch in my window....now I have three counterstools and a counter. Still we like it. We think "cozy" not "roomy" and it works.
ReplyDeleteDon't know what is wrong with the Rep's but I do know they are jerks :)
ReplyDeleteHave fun at the exhibit & symphony
Thanks for the linky love! xo
ReplyDeleteWearing black? Don't get mistaken for one of the musicians! It would be difficult to fake at the high level of performance that I remember in those small-town Ohio symphony orchestras.
ReplyDeleteYour current abode looks large and comfy in those pictures. Kitchen arrangements are a bit crowded in all older structures; I live in one. Of course, considering my condition, I may never move again.
I have been reading your last few posts. I know how you feel after all the tragedies that have happened. I don’t understand in a way how can a country, which is the most religious in the western world, can also be the one with so much hate – it just does not go together, or does it? I really think that the tone has become virulent since they de-regulated the news. Before, the news on TV was more or less non-profit. When they let them be a profit center the TV stations had to make more noise to get more viewers and the noise has been getting meaner and meaner. Same in politics. That’s why I like to watch Jon Stewart of the Daily Show – he makes fun of it all. Thanks for visiting my blog I always enjoy your comments.
ReplyDeleteKay -- thanks for the Weiner video. I I am an independent that realizes that the corporate world runs our country not the politicians. barbara
ReplyDeleteAnthony Weiner is a breath of fresh air.
ReplyDeleteMoving is bad enough, but doing it in the winter is self-imposed torture. It would have to be a great place to justify that.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your social life!
The Repubs are driving me crazy, too. We had a doctor's appointment this week that cost us $250 and Rx that took another $250. I came home and tore up my rent check.
