no, no…I am not listening to Cher. I am thinking. Uh Oh. Scary, right? LOL

Seriously though, if I could indeed turn back time…I would turn it back to 2006 when we were looking for a house. Or looking to build one. Instead we decided to buy this house. I wish that could be changed and we would have decided on building. I wouldn’t have neighbors driving me crazy. The land we looked at back in 2006 had no neighbors for 4 miles in each direction. Here, I have neighbors all around and while they are ok, they have no sense of respect when it comes to privacy or quiet time. Our neighbor to the left for instance. Playing his drums all of the time or banging on his roland drum like a maniac. Now, during the day I don’t mind…I am busy and pay little attention to it. But on weekends and late at night…like 10 pm, when all we want to do is settle down and enjoy some downtime…he starts up! We have been dealing with this for over 6 years now and I am at my breaking point. I have asked him nicely. Several times. Next up = noise complaint.
Good thing we’ve decided to move. Not sure when exactly since we have to fix this house up quite a bit…but the move is on the horizon. We are already planning, pricing and mentally packing! LOL

But I will take it. We need the rain. Plus we have had such wonderful weather over the last few weeks that a day or two of rain don’t really matter. To me anyway. Mother nature however needs it. And as long as it’s not in white flake form, I’ll happily accept it! LOL

I have candles lit all over the house, dinner on the stove and hubby is taking a much needed nap. The dogs are napping with the hubby unit and the cats are all curled up snoozin’ as well. My kinda day since I have absolutely nothing to do workwise. Bliss.

Wow, just when I think I have seen pretty much everything – I find something that I haven’t seen! *lol* And this is actually pretty neat and definitely something I would get for our patio table. What is it, you ask? Well it’s Spandex table linens!

I know, right? Spandex? Table linens?

Yup, you read that right!

Curious? Wanna know more? Click for spandex linens and get an eyeful!

I actually really do like these and think they come in handy! Affordable. No wrinkles. Easy care. Durable. And they won’t slide or blow off if a breeze hits!

And they even come with printed patterns on them! *wOOt*
Yup, I’m gonna talk to the hubby unit and see about getting one for our Patio table.

I am loving our weather lately. It’s been warm and just so nice. We did have a couple of days of rain but we needed it so it didn’t bother me much. I’d rather have rain than more snow. If I was to see snow right now, I’d lose my mind! *lol*

I have been keeping busy with my biz and the house. I am still cleaning out junk. Next up is the yard! We have to get a dumpster to get rid of all the crap. It would take way too many pick up truck loads if we were to take it all to the local dump. It’s easier and cheaper for us to get a 30 yard dumpster with all of the debri from the tearing the old porch down and rebuilding

I’m looking forward to a nice clean yard again!!

Just got off the phone with MIL and she is on about her pool and wanting to open it. She thinks she needs a new heater for it. Not sure what to tell her since the hubby unit usually checks her heater and pump and lines and such. I told her I would have hubby call her later when he gets home. If I recall correctly she needed something for her pool last year but I can’t for the life of me remember what it was. Hubby opened her pool but did not close it as she had someone else do it. Not sure why. I did see that hubby had a rheem heat pumps catalog last year so maybe it was heater related. I am not sure why she’d even replace it or have it fixed…she hardly uses the heater on the pool anyway.

I am not sure if I will go up this year to swim either. We haven’t been talking much because of the way she talks behind our backs and we have been nothing but helpful towards her over the last 12 years. Family drama…and I try to stay away. As far as possible!

Oh yeah…on a daily basis…with some people anyway. Like those who will have plenty to say when it involves their drama and nothing when there is none….making small talk and shit…like weather
