Weekend Endeavors..........

YIPPEEEEE!!!!

My apartment is finally painted!!!! When we moved in back in April...The landlord gave us permission to paint it as the walls were pretty marked up... I had asked if we had to stick to white and he said no...YEAH! Well between settling in and getting the kids organized, Patrick and Manisa's wedding and such...we finally found the time to paint...The living room, kitchen and dinning room has this really wonderful sort of spanish style tile (White with splashes of terra cotta coloring in light and dark splotches) so we opted to go with that...Since I have a lot of indian stuff-dreamcatchers and pictures-The effect was awesome....I want to say the color is probably about like this...maybe a little darker...but it looks totally awesome.....I am so happy! The only snafu was Asha.....I think she felt left out and decided she wanted to be a paintbrush...Yup...Backed up right into a wet wall.....Oh well....she does love her baths!!! NOT! She now has a grooming appointment to shave her hair down.....

Manisa spent the weekend with us and together we got about 3 boxes packed to send up to Patrick as he moves into the apartment this weekend....Blankets, towels, and whatnot.....

All in all a very productive weekend! So next weekend we can take it easy and just putz around the house...take naps ( I love those!) and just do whatever....That is barring what happens with Frances......

Like I said on Lisa's blog....I am really hoping that this thing just goes away quietly....the storm people down here have forcast a cold front moving in that might push this storm towards us...They also have stated that it should regain strength and be back upto a Category 4 or 5 by the end of the week...I don't want it moving up northwards as then it possibly will hit North Carolina (Where Patrick lives right in the Coast) or Massachuesetts (Where my Ex Mom in Law +family lives and Stacy lives as well)....Nope don't want this storm going anywhere but away from all these places!!!! I guess I will just have to keep track of it and make plans as needed...Should it hit West Palm Beach where I am, rest assured if it's a Cat 3 or above....I will be packing the kids, animals and heading out and away.....While I am sure that the condo will be fine....I won't take the chance...not with the kids or animals...

Anyhoo.....I had best get going here...it's also month end close at my office this week and next....so everyone is on edge here.......UGH! Makes for an interesting week!
