My Twin!


My twin, from another mother, came to visit me over Columbus day weekend. Her name's Michelle. She's pretty. We haven't seen each other for about 3 years adn it was so wonderful and a big blessing to play and catch up! we discovered all the wonderful things about Pensacola, especially Bob Seger. Really, he's a good singer, hehe. We went to a dueling piano bar, where they don't duel and the locals don't seem to like to sing, but we danced and sang the night away. No, old friends in new places are still great. It's wondeful to have such people in your life, where even though you may not see one another for long periods of time, that when you do, you can just pick right up where you left off. Fabulous. And she gave me pin curls!

in Progress...

Well, I've been in Pensacola for just over a week now. It's great! I love Florida and am pretty sure I could stay here forever! This part of FL is way different then the rest, some call it southern alabama and my fave is the redneck riviera!! It's so laid back here and people are just nice. I loved jax, tampa, ft lauderdale, orlando and miami, but this is a whole new florida experience!
So, I've made some progress on the abode as well. It
's fun and definitely a learning process for me. Who knew that when a builder applies wallpaper directly to the drywall and then owner rips off ugly wallpaper...the dry wall top comes off with it. geez...so now i have to spackle, sand and then finish the walls...YES!!!!!!!!!!! Oh and I GET to buy my very own lawn mower!!! haha!! oh i feel so grown up, it's ridiculous (although today, a lady told me there is noway i could be close to 30...she was sure i was only like 21..that was nice!).

Here's the living room...
before..and after...
......

Here's my bedroom all pretty and cozy...

And, my favorite so far..the Office!! It's GREAT!!!

So, yeah, this is my progress to now. i have much more to complete and i'll post as i get done. I have to start work on wednesday, so I am sure it'll get done slower, but hey it's mine, i got all the time in the world!! Come visit!!
