Other stuff

You would think the only thing going on around here this week is a new shed. But oh no, there has been much more important things DANCING WITH THE STARS!!! This puts a crimp in my movie watching and I've got some new ones I am itching to watch, but I love me some dancing, so they will wait till Thursday night. My favs so far are Brooke Burke (she is very good) and the football guy Warren Sapp, he just lights up the dance floor and makes me smile!!! Julianne is my favorite "pro" so I tend to also like her partners. Cody is a cutey!

Speaking of movies I forgot to report 2 weeks ago (in a movie watching frenzy) my favorite that week, duh! Anyway, it was "Dan in Real Life". Very good movie. It was a library disk so it had a couple of bad spots at the end but I'm pretty sure I didn't miss anything too important. Then last week I watched "Made of Honor" (very cute) and "No Reservations" (that one was real good) in addition to a TV series I'm in the middle of "Invasion".

Materials for NEW shed arriving Friday

:-) Peace

Color me EXCITED!!

Today we start on the shed project! This was our "compromise" to me not looking at different houses. Robbie wants to "stay put". So I get a new shed. (That and the fact my old one has termites). We have to tear down the old shed 1st. I think this will be the worst part of this whole project.

We have terrific weather this week. Cool and dry. You could actually say cold, it is 46 degrees right now!! But the main thing is dry, since the old shed inhabitants have to sit in the yard (covered with tarps) till their new home is built.

Hopefully I will be giving "new shed" tours this weekend.

:-) Peace

IKE continued

From this mornings paper:

"AmerenCIPS executive Leigh Morris said in a release Sunday afternoon that 49,000-plus customers experienced outages. By 7:30 p.m., there were 23,655 outages in the state, mostly in Southern Illinois. He expected most would have power restored by midnight tonight, with the exception of Marion and the surrounding area, where power might not be fully restored until Wednesday."

poor poor Sunny, without coffee AGAIN this morning :-(

All I'm saying is that Ike was a beast.
