12 Days

The cost of buying all the items listed in the 12 Days of Christmas is $96,824.00 this year. That is an increase of more than 10% from last year. I blame the higher cost on hiring those pesky pipers but according to this article the biggest expense was for the 9 ladies dancing. Typical women always wanting more! I kid, I kid. Need a refresh of what all is on the list? Check out this take on the items on the list:

Long Beach

Last month I went to sunny Southern California with some of my family and visit some family that lives there. The only problem was that the sun decided that it would rather not make an appearance so it turned out to be a visit to cloudy, rainy Southern California. While the lack of sun subdued the trip a little it was still a lot of fun and just nice to get away for a few days. Below are some pictures of lovely Long Beach.

Paint Bug

Lately I have been feeling the desire to paint my whole house, minus my bedroom which I painted blue last year. The only problem is that I have red walls in my living room that I really don't look forward to painting over. Yes, I knew all about how hard red is to cover when I picked it out and put in on the walls but that was three years ago so any change would be Future E's problem. Anyway, I think I have found a compromise by picking to paint my office instead or at least to start. Now I just need a color. I love the soothing blue of my bedroom but think it would be a little much in two rooms. Plus I am thinking a lighter color is in order since it is a smaller room. Thoughts? Suggestions? Willing to Paint? Let me know.
