Choices




Do these look like "pretend" patio doors? Yes, they are display doors but they are not pretend. Why did I think they would be pretend doors? Because I'm stupid, that's why. It hurts when you try to walk through them.










These are some of our new windows...and no, I didn't try to walk through them. There is no design on them, that is just a hallway with more doors behind them. I like the top transom design.





Doors, windows, carpets, hardwood etc.....it's so hard to choose. What if it looks like a dogs breakfast by the time it all gets together? I have a feeling we will have to live with some screw ups.

So, what has everyone been up to while I have been blowing a hole in our life savings? I have been decluttering and cleaning the house. After I am finished a room nobody is allowed to in it. It shall remain a shrine until we put the house up for sale. I don't care if you have to go to the bathroom, hold it.....until we sell (I have been heard shouting). Don't mess with a woman on a mission.

I have encountered weird people lately.... sales people mainly. How do they remain so ... perky? Why when I enter their offices do they greet me like they are my best friend ever? I have to pick them up by the hair while they are kissing my flip flops and give them a shake. Sometimes I act unreasonable just to see their reaction and most times they will throw in an extra door or window just to shut me up. I don't know what I'm going to do with that extra west wing they promised, sell it on E Bay I guess. I'm getting good at this.

I love those windows! Now, you've got me wondering if I could have them installed one weekend when my husband is camping and maybe he won't notice them when he gets home. What d'ya think?

Oh YES! I love the windows too. Keep doing what you're doing to get the extra stuff and just ship it on down south here. I'll do something with it. :-)

Donna...nope the top doesn't open, and if it would they would probably charge us a gazillion Canadian dollars!
