The birds that built a nest in the light fixture of my son's house last year did it again THIS year. You really have to nip it in the bud, or else THIS is what you end up with. . . . an unsightly nest and bird droppin…
Well, I had a wonderful visit with my son, my daughter-in-law and my adorable granddaughter this past Memorial Day week end. We were on the go almost the whole time. I'm amazed at how fast Trini is growing up. She's…
There is a large bird bath not 50 feet from my apartment front door, but the poor birds couldn't use it because there was a hole in the middle of the bowl. Evidently some sort of shaft used to go down into the stand …
I wish I had taken a picture of my computer screen, because I actually beat Alice at Scrabble tonight. You know how some days you can't get anything right, and other days (like tonight) you just can't seem to go wrong. …
Alice and I decided I needed a bit a color in that small flower bed in front of my apartment. The bed is under the eve of the apartment so it doesn't get any rain water to speak of, and the neighbors said that they …
Permit me, if you will, to give you a quick tour of my tiny apartment (400 sq.ft.) that I'll be living in for the next 5 or 6 months while my house is being built.
The outside of my apartment.
This corner is my bedro…
Well, they finally started the work on building my house. Not much to report, except that they have now graded the lot in preparation for pouring the foundation. You can check it out at: http://www.xanga.com/MissChris .…
I was able to order a pair of high heels and a pair of flats from Nordstroms through the internet. Who would have thought it???
Oops, SOMEWHERE in all that jigsaw puzzle of furniture and boxes below are all of my dress shoes. For now I have only the tennis shoes I was wearing when I drove to OKC on Friday. I didn't realize my shoes were "miss…
Today was MOVE IN DAY at my new apartment and also STORAGE DAY for the rest of my stuff. I'll show you pictures of my apartment later, but thought I'd show you pictures from the storage unit part of today. This is my…
Do I feel silly!!! Regarding Wednesday's post, I completely forgot that I could post from ANY computer . . . it doesn't have to be MY computer. Yesterday was moving day and I spent the evening at my friend Darlene's ho…
This is absolutely positively the last post on Xanga until my computer gets set up in Oklahoma City. So I'll be posting (hopefully) in about another week or so. The computer gets turned off and taken down right after th…
I'm exhausted! I've packed ALL day and now the only room left to pack is the computer room. So after tonight, I'll be off the air for a week or so.
I'm so busy packing that I only have time to say that I am still alive and kicking . . . just extremely busy. Like that proverbial one armed paper hanger I always hear about. Just two more days to finish packing up ever…
Can you see it?
It's really hard to see, but Mr. & Mrs. Cardinal have built a nest in this bush just outside my breakfast room window. If you look in the full pane on the right side of the picture and look about …
Packing, packing and more packing. Actually, today I really didn't get that much packed. I packed only until about 8:30 this morning. Then I spent about an hour on the phone with my builder's Marketing guy going o…
