~Looks Nice~

We are squeaky clean and my apartment is really looking

nice. The only rooms really left to do is the sewing room and

my bedroom..My bedroom is almost done..just a little bit left

to do to neaten it up..And the curtains need to come down

and need washed and whitened up..Theyre so pretty, white

lace with a ruffle at the edge and I keep them tied back, it

really looks nice. I Have the mini blinds on all my windows,

but I have to keep them up a couple feet as the boys love

looking out and they will climb right thru the mini blinds which

then bends them since they are such thin pieces of tin or

what ever theyre made out of..lol...I like having the mini blinds

though..mine are blue which match this horrible carpet. I am

not the only one that is complaining about the condition of it

though.. Mine was never replaced after the last tenant moved

out. I know that for a fact, and It was supposed to have been.

My closet needs organized badly, it really looks a mess..Of

course the boys going up there and sleeping on top of every

thing doesnt help..Dutch just pushes what he thinks is in the

way right off the shelf, so he has room..LB is more careful,

he likes having all the towels etc to lay on and soften where

hes laying lol..hes smart..I have quite a few old purses and

aprons and things I am going to ask Kelli if she would like

to have them..They are ones my mother and grandmother

used years ago.They are really quite pretty but beaded purses

are NOT in fashion, but they are nice to just keep for old times

sake, I guess you would say. The blankets and afgans are all

messed up and not folded right, If my mother could see this

closet shelf she would surely let me know it needed to be

straightened up..and NOW lol...

I try to do these things that are out of reach, I use my grabber

as much as I can, but it just is so hard to put them back up

there.. I can get them down..BOY! can I get them DOWN!!!

A tug here or there and I can bring down everything that is up

there on those 2 closet shelves...but putting them back..well..
I just am NOT tall enough...and even with the grabber I need

to still be taller to put them back up there right. Its amazing how

just these little things like reaching a shelf can mean nothing before

but now..well shows me I really AM a shorty now..Im glad I have

Raelynn here to put the things up there for me..:-)

Today is the last day of August..so OK..who took all of this year? I

wanna know lol.. I look at the date and think " well this year is almost

over, and what have I accomplished?" I look back..and I guess what

I have done is made it this far..so I guess I really HAVE done some

thing worthwhile..and did you know next month, will be 1 yr since I

started this blog? and that I have not missed a day? Now THAT is

amazing..That no matter what I have posted, I started this in Oct.

and every night I have been here to tell you this same thing.....

Nitey Nite...

Y'all have a good one now Y'hear? I luv ya...and thanks bunches :-)

Always, Lois ****

God Bless you is my prayer today,
