Hump Day

It has been a busy week. Thankfully we do not have anything planned for tonight, but tomorrow we are going out for dinner with Debra Davis, transgender Librarian, who is speaking at the University. It should be fun and informative. On Friday we head off to I.C. to visit family for my Pop's birthday. I am looking forward to seeing the new house.
I have been slowly working away at the back stairs project and have some pics. Here it is midway through covering the crumbling green plaster with nice Oak Bead Board:

Here is what it looks like now from the bottom step:

And from the top step:

Progress! I still have to patch and sand and paint the upper walls and stairs, plus finish painting the lower trim. And we have hopes to replace the windows someday, but there are sixteen of those little suckers and we don't have that much money right now.

Time and Money...

How to insert a picture?

Today I am posting a picture. I took it this morning of my lovely daughter. She is such a wonderful girl and the light of my life. Yes indeed.


And here is one from December 2004 (with goggles). So know I will test this out and see if it really was as easy as it seemed.
Well, yes, this is soooooo simple! I just love Blogger! I could not post pictures very well at my last blog home. This was easy enough for me to post just one more. One of my very favorites:

This is from April of 2003. She's just the sweetest thing EVER!

Well, on to news of my world. I am going to my first ever WW meeting this morning at 9:30 and am not nervous, or anything, but a little apprehensive. I wonder how much this is going to cost and if it will be worth it. The meeting itself is $11.00, but I need to get two books. Maybe if I just get the titles from them I can find them on line for much less? I sure hope so. We have no money at all.

I started my new job yesterday and I think I am going to like it there. I will have more to say about it after the week is up and I have a better feel of how things are going to be.

The Test

I've just decided to join the blogger world. I tried the "other" blogs and since all my compadres moved over here, well, I guess I'll join them. I am most looking forward to posting pics of the family for everyone to see. Hopefully this format works well for me. Or I could just go back to being a "reader only". A
