Ten...Nine...Eight...

Yep, that's right, we're on official "Mom and Dad" countdown. The folks will be arriving Thursday night, and I am NOWHERE near ready for them. So, since this is the husband's night out of the house, I am taking full advantage. This morning I took the two upstairs interior doors off their hinges, removed all hardware, and washed them. I have the primer and paint at the ready, and tonight the doors and door jambs will be getting fresh coats of Kilz and white paint. That is a necessity before Dad comes in and puts up moulding, not to mention fixes the drywall around my bedroom door.

Also on the agenda (probably after T is asleep. I have 2 more pages to do in his scrapbook, pictures from the County Fair and our recent trip to Iowa, which was before I started this blog. That will get me current and I can put away all the supplies that have been plaguing my living room for months, urging me to finish.

Also, just for kicks, I took a couple of picks of my new dress this morning. Not so gorgeous on the hanger, but you get the idea....and I am so not modeling it for anyone right now! You can see that I have the doors off the hinges in the pics.

NV - yes, well, you have to keep in mind that my scrapbooks are all about Ty, I don't really have one for ME, other than the wedding album!
