Spring Cleaning

Hi everyone!! Just wanted to tell you I am still here!!! LOL! I have been busy washing walls and doing all that fun stuff that I do once a year! (NOT!)
Anyway just finished 2 rooms today and then have 2 left for tomorrow. Then on the weekend will be getting Hubby to help with the downstairs family room.
I made a promise to myself that all this has to be done before I can sit and play!!
Hope you are all having a great week!

I am MIA!

My poor brother fell yesterday while delivering mail and broke his leg in 2 places! He called me from the Emergency room to my work place to let me know about it. I came into the city after work Friday to be with my Dad.
Brian finally had his surgery today at 4:30 today after being bumped once! We just got back from the hospital tonight and he is doing really well and can come home tomorrow morning. Now we just have to keep him from climbing the stairs to get to his computer!!!!!!!!!!! Any hoo that's been my day!
