has been going on with me latley. that seems to be the way it goes with me. I either have a lot of free time, or none at all. right now i am in the none at all catagory. or it seems that way to me.
we are almost done with the bathroom. today we have to go buy a vanity mirror and install the towel rack and tp holder. yesterday as i was cleaning the bathroom and running water, i discovered the sink was leaking. that thing is driveing john nuts. it didnt line up correctly with the pipes that came out of the wall so he had to figure out how to fix that problem. the sink has been the only real issue. we got the new shower doors and they are beautiful. i cleaned them yesterday with barkeepers friend and now they are crystal clear. that stuff is very good. it took off all the fingerprints and marks from the installer. i think i will try it on my car windows.
I had to stand in the showeer to take that.
last weekend we went to my sisters birthday party. i actually didnt know it was her birthday, the card said a party for carol, but i dont know their birthdays, so i just figured it was a party. anyway, we had a blast. i got to see my sisters i havent seen for way too long. we laughed, danced, visited, ate, then laughed and danced some more. her daughters put it together and they thought of everything. they bought these blow up guitars and a saxaphone. i have pics of all my family doing the rockstar thing with a blow up guitar. i know it sounds funny, but it was fun. someone got cutout images of elvis and marilyn monrow. so we were taking pics with them also. now elvis is in my garage with a gold blow up guitar around his neck.
My neice found these glowing margerita glasses on line. they are plastic and you have to bend the stem to activate the glowing stuff in them. that is what we drank out of all night. well, i did anyway. everyone else had wine glasses or shot glasses on beads around our necks. my brother tied all the ballons towards the end of the party to one of the glasses to try and launch it, but it was just too heavy and would only float up a bit then come back down. Thats my sister with the balloons. we had fun with that thing too.
this thing seems like its getting kinda long and i dont want to loose you to my ramblings so i will go for now. that is john in the background and my other sisters at that table. hmm, i just noticed that. well, i need to go try real hard to get caught up on what is going on with all of you. crap, loose a week and it takes a whole day to catch up.
see ya all later
I hope John can fix the problems with the sink soon...I just love how it looks..BEAUTIFUL! :) Im glad you had fun iwth your sisters....I want one of those glasses now. lol
ReplyDeleteYou didn't lose me - it sounds like a wonderful party. I had the same sort of problem with my sink the first time I swapped it out. Ended up calling a plumber friend and what he did is cut off the pipe where it came out of the wall - and he used a rubber pipe connector with hoseclamps to connect it to plastic pipe that he used to make the trap because the plastic trapt swiveled a bit - that way there was room to adjust for the difference. I hope that makes sense. And now I really want a margarita darn you...
ReplyDeleteAnd I knew Elvis was still around somewhere - just didn't imagine in your garage, lol.
What a fabulous party for me and I wasn't even there. When we redid our bathroom we had a terrible time stopping the toilet from leaking. very frustrating.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a nice bathroom update and the party sounded like too much fun. Would have loved to have been a fly on the wall for that one! LOL Air guitar and helium balloons; what a band!
ReplyDeleteI like the dark browns in the bathroom with the white! Great touch and the matching trim on the shower.
ReplyDeleteJust because inquiring minds want to know, what do you keep in the basket underneath the sink?
Where is the pic of you walking around with balloons on your head!
