Fun Rec Room

This weekend, my boyfriend and I were playing darts in my basement, my dingy, dusty basement. He decided to get the ball rolling. We put stuff away , he mopped the floor, we arranged the chairs and hung posters on the wall. Now we're ready to have a fun time down here

Bathroom Renovation Phase II

I have the most talented, kind and nice boyfriend in the world. I'm not showing the pictures of the ripped out walls, the insulation he put in, the dry wall, etc. Here is my new shower, bright, clean, how wonderful. The next project will be to change out the sink, but this weekend, we're taking a break. No heavy duty house projects!

Voila, Makeshift Shower

Now I love to take a shower, Will love it even more when the walls go up.

Bathroom Renovation

Herbert's favorite pastime is sitting in the bathtub, drinking water out of the dripping faucet. Not anymore. My boyfriend spent all day Saturday and Sunday fixing my leaky plumbing, probably the original in the house from 1941! We took down the walls of crumbling tile, all the wet, smelly insulation, and put up shower curtains so I can shower until we get time to put the walls back in. I should say too, that with his creative problem solving skills, I got a functioning shower out of the deal too, when before, there was no shower. Love my new showerhead.

Fun At Farm Fest

Farm Fest, Sept. 2010 again. Went on a hay wagon ride, got a pumpkin, drank some milk. We got there too late to stuff a scarecrow, the stuffins were running thin. That's okay, because earlier that morning, we spread grass seed and straw at the park. We had had our fill of straw already that day.

Rummage Sale Trinkets

I got the little calf and horse at a vintage shop, but my boyfriend bought the big coke glasses for me, I bought the little ones and the purple glass and the smiley mug I got at the ice cream shop. My boyfriend also bought me the adorable snowman. I'm turning into a rummage sale, flea market, vintage shop junkie.

John's Root Beer Stand

Saturday I went to John's Root Beer Stand for the first time. I've only been living in this town for 18 years. Yummiest root beer, and the most delicious float I ever had.
