This is Grant in Paris and the Moulin Rouge...and Quinn at home. Just random pictures to spice up the blog...since no one really wants to read alot of words...So......is Dorsa the only person who blog updates??? What is with the rest of us? Are we frozen (well, yes if we live in the midwest) or are we glued to Facebook...Facebook creeping?
- I just ordered Plantation Shutters (3.5 inch slats) for our bedroom...
- Squirrels are living in the soffit along the front our our house. Carl the Wildlife Tracker has been hired to trap the squirrels - two puny traps under the maple tree that have remained empty for several days - meanwhile I found insulating material from somewhere in our house on the front steps no doubt left behind by the squirrels either on their way up to or down from the soffit nest - I am considering sprinkling rat poisoning along the gutters but they are frozen solid and I have no idea how to get there without possibly killing myself
- I also ordered Shilohettes (sp?) for the dining room, living room, and "library" (that's what the blind lady called the family room - oh, the blind lady actually can see...
- Matthew has passed his Neurology Boards....and will soon have gainful employment following the completion of his fellowship in July. Employment will be somewhere in the Chicagoland area - but not with RLT Neurologic Associates....a dinosaur of private practice in a now world of multi-specialty large groups (as in 250 physicans)...just another step on our way to government controlled medicine
- I am inching closer to tearing out the ugly blue carpeting in the stairs. I actually spoke with a decorator lady today about it - also about removing the wallpaper in the dining room
- Why as the 32nd year of living in this house is underway I would finally decide to spend $$$$ on decorating is beyond me. Certainly I don't plan on living here another 32 years - I'd be 93 years old - but then Granny Bauer was still living in her house at age 96. So maybe it is an OK idea to do some decorating updates.

Oh man the wallpaper in your living room aunt Sue! I always liked that wallpaper and I don't know why, but hey nothing hurts to do a little updating! It's cold here too in Richmond it's almost unbearable! I want Spring!
Thanks Straw for your diligence in updating blogs...I tried to post a comment on Aunt Sue, but it said I have to be a team member!! Am I not a team member? IEA. Anyway, I love the pics of the kids on Christmas in their adorable jammies!! What fun it must be to be a grandma...No pressure Diana I have plenty of time to be an old gray haired Granny.
Updating the house is always desirable and it doesn't seem too far fetched that you will be in that house for another 32 years!! Yay
Update!! Update!! Get rid of hideous blue carpet and 80s wallpaper immediately!! When you're done you can come to Minneosta and paint - your favorite thing to do
