Gotta Ask

Sometimes I guess you just gotta ask. That is what I found out this weekend.

In a post last year I told you about getting a ceiling fan put up in our living room. I was told at the end of the project that there were two jobs that would never be done by my DH again and one of them was putting up a ceiling fan.

On Sunday I was asked what I wanted for Mother's Day. In our new home for some strange reason there were no fans up in two very important rooms, our bedroom and the tv room. So I asked for fans as my gift and I got them.

Summer comfort guaranteed.

Thank you honey!

Something Good

As grumpy as I was yesterday I do have something I am enjoying lately. The weather here is lovely right now. High 80's may sound warm to some but around here it feels nice and comfortable. I can open all the windows and the sliding patio doors, get all my ceiling fans going and the house is very nice all day. It just feels so good when you can breathe fresh air instead of recycled cooled air all day and all night.

Never Again

Never again. Those are the words I heard this weekend. A guest room is being painted and carpeted in my house to make a cozy place for visitors. For at least two people we will have a bed rather than air mattresses on the floor. Jim's home office was moved from that bedroom to the formal dining area of our living room. We don't do formal often enough to keep that space as is anyway. The move involved taking down the head damaging chandelier and putting up a new ceiling fan with a light fixture on it. the ceiling fan installation did not go real smoothly even though Jim is a very talented handy guy. The box said "The 5 Minute Fan". The box lied.


So now there are two things that will happen here when hell freezes over, I find an eye wrinkle cream that works or pigs fly. The first is laying a travertine stone floor and the second is installing another ceiling fan.
