"The icing is being put on the cake"

Yep.......this day was one of starting the tedious job of frosting the large cake: new lights were installed, new door handles were installed(the kind for senior arthritic hands), the doors shortened just a bit so they moved easily over the new, thick carpets, and the beginning of the design for the 12 foot flexible halogen track lighting in the bedroom was discussed and decided upon. The frosting that was not applied to the cake today will, hopefully, be finished tomorrow.....or Monday. The mounting of the plasma tv into the "cavity" in the wall where it will "float" is planned for tomorrow.

ALL of this takes more time than planned and so it was late in the day before our contractor departed. For a little more than an hour this afternoon I was at the local furniture store looking through "catalogues" of new bedroom furniture. Looking for a very contemporary, dark espresso colored wood bedroom set......but could not find anything available through their companies. NOT much, if any, requests here in F'town for this style of furniture.......hmmmm...are we ahead of the "times" up on Buford Heights inside TheHowserHouse??????

After the contractor left, I hurried around to grab a sandwich and then prepare for the monthly Bd.of Education meeting.......the meeting was a bit early this month due to the Easter Break that begins late next week. The 1st Lady had a dinner meeting with her "teacher friends" .......they meet once each month for dinner in Farmington. A good time is always had by all of them as they sit and chat while having some vino and a good meal.

Soooooo, it was a rather uneventful day......OH YEAH....I did post a few pics on this little blog of some of the huge changes that have been made in a couple of our newly remodeled rooms. And as usual.....

Life is Great......and I hope it is for all of you, also.
