Checking in

Ok, I've now taken two huge loads down to the dumpster. My goal was to tidy the house. I did the bathroom but I did a great job. I took everything out of the drawers and under the sink. Most of it turned out to be trash so that was my dumpster trip.

Then I went to Sherry and Lee's to check on their cats (only one of which I could find) and see the new TV - very lovely but I turned it on and I was not as impressed. The picture is smaller than mine and I think my picture quality is better.

Then I went to the grocery store. I found everything I wanted and more - it was an excellent trip. And, I should note, the car started right up. Whew.

Now I am home and I've updated the makeover page. And while I still have work to do around the house, I think I'm going to give my ass a little quality time on the couch first.

Oh and yesterday, at Bartells, they had this hand soap on the aisle end cap. I think it was $1.50. I put it by the kitchen sink and every time I see it, I smile - it's just so pretty. This picture does not do the detail justice - the top is nicely done and cleverly sculpted. Plus the soap is good. I love it when simple things are done elegantly. I need to remember to stop there again and pick up some more - it comes in different colors... Method

Very cool!

Incidentally, I also like the blue carpet better, especially with the colors you've chosen. The tan-with-some-blue one looks dirty to me. I suppose it would hide dust, a bit, but.... :)

Actually, you are very close... the tan with some blue might win because it would hide... CATS! It's the closest in color to the kind of cat fodder I get - hair, balls, etc. But, we will see. Sheri has been so spot on with her recommendations so far...

Method stuff is so cool. Nice design makes up pay more for soap! :-)
Sadly my boyfriend is deathly allergic to their hand dish soap.
