Wednesday, December 22, 2010

Yesterday was my wedding anniversary.  Steve got me a card, and he's learned that I like the mushy ones.  Charles, my older brother, always sends me something like that.  He knows I like them.  I got Steve a Makita skill saw.  It's REALLY nice.
We didn't do anything special.
We worked at individual projects in the morning, then in the early afternoon, we got ready to go to Down Home for lunch/supper.  We took along some Christmas decorations and decorated Barbara's apartment for her.  I had a one-sided Christmas tree, which we hung on a wall above her TV and decorated it for her.  I put LED lights on it, so it wouldn't get hot or take much power.
It's really pretty.  We hung wreaths on the privacy wall between her porch and her neighbor's, and put one in each window.  Her apartment looks so much better.
Then we took her to supper with us.  After our meal, I discovered that Steve had taken my money out of my purse, so I was flat broke.  I had to use a credit card to pay for supper.
I chewed Steve out again for not putting lights in the blow mold nativity set, so he got busy and did it.
I had fed the birds earlier in the day, so I could work in the Hut last night.  Steve help out by cutting some paneling for the front end for me.  He did really well with the joints, and I won't even need trim pieces to cover the seams.  It looks like a camper again in that end.  I re-used the old shelf from that area to make a really exuberent window sill.  It looks pretty neat.  I'm going to cover it with some white laminate.
Steve gave out and came into the house about 10:00, but I stayed behind to do more work and some cleaning.  I think I may paint the bedroom, and I've found some pale mint green that will look nice there.
I came in about 11:00.  I ate a bit and got a quick bath.
Steve said I only lasted a few minutes before I was sound asleep.  I guess I was tired.
It started out looking dreary and rainey this morning, but the sun is coming out now.
We need a few cheerful days.
