Well, first day back with my Mary, she let me chat about Costa Rica and made believe she saw all my pictures on the computer as I rambled on & on over our coffee and fresh scones. She asked me alot of questions, this too was part of our morning daily board meeting. Couple hours went by and we cleaned out her refridgerator, because I found the milk that went bad, of course it was after I put it in my coffee. We went to the grocery store ad got the usual, "eggos, bananas for my famous protein shakes she loves, the cheese sticks, the apple turnovers, cranberry juice, some eggs. This is what we get every few days. We also stopped at the Gormet shop, we never get more than a cup of hot chai, either to go or to take out. Today we took it to go, because it was already time to leave her house and do some more reorganizing in my house. Five hours.
I bought a couple plants for the living room and some of those "natural/grow lights" for the lamps to help brighten up the room. It is looking bore comforting everyday and the old apartment more airy and open. I finally got a chance to talk to Aja, she called from Brazil and gave me her number where she is, so I can call back this week, I feel like talking to her tomorrow too. I chatted with my brother, Neil too tonight and we will get together on Thursday night to catch up on life. He just got back from visiting Mom & Dad in Florida, so he will have some funny stories to tell and I can share my stories of Costa Rica.
I do love this apartment and now that it has grown, I am loving it more. Nicole will come over tomorrow, I need her help and she will have some great ideas for decorating it. She has such a great eye for rearranging a room with finese and style, and on a limited budget working with what we have. Cal is feeling really negatively on the place now that the window is gone, and I am hoping I can come up with a solution for more light in there. I think it is cozy, and so much light in all the other rooms, I don't know what the big deal is, but he has a right to his opinion, I just hope he accepts this when I get it fixed up. This place has so many other good things about it, storage, parking, high celings, big yard, my gardens, now a place for his sons to stay if they want to or for guests. Why is he making this such an issue, I don't get it.
