Good morning, Everyone. I'm slow starting this morning.

Morning Sour, the important thing is that you start!
 
Busy yesterday! We repainted the kitchen. Neither of us have been too happy with how the first color we used turned out to look so doggone pink on the walls. Didn’t look that way when we tried different samples on the wall. So we bit the bullet, sanded the walls lightly, and started over. We’re much happier with the yellow we have now. Then we prepped the master bathroom for painting and will tackle that today. That’s the last room to paint, thank goodness! I’m over it!! We decided not to paint the utility room. Don’t feel like pulling out the washer and dryer to paint behind it but wouldn’t want to just leave that section unpainted either.

After.

Haven’t heard how Evan did last night in Congress but Katie called her mom and she was so excited. She told Jenny, “Mom, I did so GOOD.” Jen said she was so happy she was almost squealing! But she was also concerned that there were so many kids there. Jenny reminded her that it was State competition, so there would naturally be kids there from all over the state. I guess Katie’s category has more competitors this year than in years past. So keep those good wishes for her coming!!

And good morning, everyone!!

The kitchen is absolutely beautiful, Blooie. It's almost a shame to cook in there.
Congratulations to Katie, and wishes for even better things to come! Good luck to Evan, too!

Nice color Blooie! Good wishes continuing for Katie :)

Good afternoon Blooie 😊 kitchen looks really nice

Oh, it’s an absolute joy to cook in there, Janie! I barely remember now what it was like to have to empty a small, overpacked cabinet to get out what I needed - which was inevitably at the very back on the bottom! :he
Nice color Blooie! Good wishes continuing for Katie :)
Thanks, Debby! I’ll let you all know how she and Evan did, win, lose or draw. I am constantly marveling at what it takes for her to do this, and do it so well. It takes an inordinate amount of courage for most of us to get in front of a big group and give a speech. Imaging doing it when that crowd has judging sheets in their hands and you have Autism! Wow!! She’s already lettered in band, drama, chorus, and she’ll letter in Speech and Debate this year too, she’s already been informed. That usually doesn’t happen until the Sophomore year, and she’s just a Freshman!

The kitchen sure does look better. I hope you and Frankenfoot get the chance to come up before you leave for Fl…F….Flor….Florida. :hit
Good afternoon Mark 😊 hope your day is going well

Good afternoon Blooie 😊 kitchen looks really nice
Thank you, Grammy. Sanding and repainting a room was not high on our list of things we wanted to do, but I couldn’t take the pink one more day. What with the pinkish/peach walls and white tiles, it looked like a 1950s public restroom in here!

By Katie doing all that when she's just a freshman, who knows how high she can go? Is college in her plans?

DH is on his way here for a couple of days. And then he's hitting the road for FL. He's anxious to get started on his new job (and probably anxious to leave the snow behind). I'll tell him you said hello!
