Framework

Remind me never to do this again!!! Building a home from long distance, not easy or fun. A few weeks ago, I tried to skype with Kim and the design center on flooring, granite, stone, etc. This process did not work very well trying to make such difficult and important decisions via the Internet. This process left my marriage dangling by a thread. After all, how can a girl be expected to pick out such things without actually touching and visualizing first hand? So, we planned a trip out to So Cal so I could do just that. Viewing all these options proved to be just as taxing and left us both exhausted. But at least it is now done. I am most excited about my corn carpet. What is corn carpet you ask? Well, it is just that. Carpet made out of corn. You can pour bleach, red wine you name and no stain. This is good because I want white carpeting and with a Lab... need I say more? It is also the softest carpet I have ever felt. I still have to pick out a fridge and a new washer and dryer. However, I think that will be a little easier and I actually get a little thrilled when I see commercials for these appliances.

Rylee has her grad party on Saturday and so we are trying to get everything ready for that. She has really been so remarkable. She has been helping me do everything in addition to getting herself ready for college. I have no doubt she will be successful as she starts out on her own.
