Day 22 Recap

We were thinking today could possibly be the end of this project but it didn't work out that way.  Jim started out the day by working on replacing the siding around the new door & window.  There wasn't enough siding so taking a trip to pick up more took a good part of his time.  It was the perfect day to do it as we reached 50 degs today!



They also replaced the back to to the garage as the other one suffered some damage from last year when we were locked out after our nightmare trip home from England.
We did get out new table....the other one was too big....& put one piece of furniture back. They still have to rebuild the wall & shelves that separate the two rooms. The wood is all painted & ready to go so tomorrow should be it.

I did make Popster a nice Valentine's dinner which we ate at out new table....I have to say cooking in my new kitchen is so much better as it's so roomy & I have lots of counter space.

There is a negative side though...........I can't find anything!!!!!

By the time I find what I'm looking for I can't remember why I needed it in the first place!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BIG BROTHER

Happy birthday to my big brother Terry...........have a wonderful day!

46 years ago...............................

Today is our anniversary & I  have decided this post will be my version about how we met.......Popster's version would more than likely not be the same but that's how we roll! It was new year's eve 1963....yikes!.......I was a telephone operator in a little town called Huntingdon in England.  It was about 3 miles from Alconbury, an amercan air force base.  All calls went thru our switchboard including ones from the base so consequently we got to know all the GIs.  we would meet them at the Nickel Coin.........pictured here during our coffee..... or should I say tea?....breaks & lunch hours.  Whenever some newbies were transfered in they would be brought to town to meet the local girls. It was not "love at first sight"......I thought he was kinda nerdy & he thought I was a "stuck-up english broad"!  It was a few weeks later when he asked me to go to the movies that I realized he wasn't so "nerdy", so I guess we'll call

Designer "doggy uggs"

Poor Molly has been having a hard time already this winter with the snow. She has good size pads on her feet which are "webbed" like a lab's foot.  When she goes in the snow it builds up in between her pads & forms a hard piece of almost ice-like snow.  Then she holds her foot up for someone to pull it out.  I decided to make her her own boots. Jessica had spent the night here as we went to First night for new years....more on that later.....so we "googled" how to make dog boots & then modified it to work for Molly.  Keep in mind these were boots you could make in 10 minutes.  It took approx 10 mins to measure Molly's feet.  Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners.  We then made her wear them around the house for a while &
