HAPPY 19TH---I SUPPOSE I SHOULD SET GOALS FOR TH E19TH...LIKE DO SOME SPECIFIC CHORE THAT I JUST NEVER SEEM TO GET TO--- LIKE UNCOVER MY DESK-- WHICH IS NO FUN

MAYBE TODAY I COULD GET TO HOME DEPOT THIS MORNING AND GET MYSELF A NEW SHOWER HEAD-- YOU HAVE NO IDEA THE ONE I HAVE NOW...ON THE END OF A 8' HOSE...- BUT FOR SOME REASON IT IS NOT A SHOWER, MORE LIKE A  A DRIP 'n DRIBBLE.. THE PROBLEM IS... WATER DOES COME OUT OF IT-- SO I MAKE DO-- AND AROUND HERE IF  YOU CAN MAKE DO, IT IS PERMANENT.

WHICH IS SORT OF LIKE THE COLOR OF THESE BUILDINGS.... STARTED OUT ALL ORGANIZED-- NICE BRIGHT PURPLE BARN SOFT YELLOW TRIM--- BUT THEN WE NEEDED MORE PAINT-- AND I GUESSED AT THE COLOR MATCH... SO WE ENDED UP WITH SOME NEARLY NICE PURPLE AND BRIGHT YELLOW...- AND AT HOME DEPOT THEY HAVE A $2 A GALLON MISTAKE RACK-- SO TO DO THE NUMBERS AT DOG FEST, I BOUGHT A GALLON OR TWO OF THE "OFF " COLOR RACK...

 LIKE A BLUE GALLON.

AND TO DO THE NUMBERS I BOUGHT A FEW OF THE SAMPLE JARS TO DECORATE NUMBERS AT  DOG FEST.

 

YESTERDAY WE WANTED TO PAINT THE RED TOOL SHED--- AND THE MOST PAINT WE HAD WAS THE SOFT YELLOW--  BUT IT WAS NOT ENOUGH-- NEITHER WAS THE BRIGHT YELLOW-- PUT TOGETHER WE HAD A LETTLE OVER A GALLON

YOU HAVE TO GET THE PICTURE---  WE NEEDED MORE THAN A GALLON FOR TWO SIDES AND YOU CAN'T MIX A HEAPING GALLON OF ANY FLUID...  SO ANNIE AND LINDA  STARTED AT ONE END  AND AS THEY USED SOME, I ADDED AND MIXED MORE OF THE  BRIGHT YELLOW.. WHICH STILL MIGHT DO THE 2 SIDES... SO WHEN THEY GOT TO THE CORNER  I DUMPED IN A FEW OF THE LITTLE JARS WHICH VAGUELY RESEMBLED YELLOW- AND CAREFULLY SRIRRED IT UP WITH THE FLY SWATTER WHICH HAD JUST STIRRED THE LAVENDER TRIM ( WHICH HAD STARTED OUT BLUE WITH RED ADDED.)

SO 2 SIDES OF OUR TOOL SHED ARE VERY INTERESTING--- PERSONALLY I CAN NOT SEE THE DIFFERENCE-- BUT I AM SURE IT IS THERE...

TODAY WE COULD PAINT THE 2 BACK SIDES OF THE SHED--WE HAVE A GALLON OF BLUE-- AND ALOT OF SMALL QUANTITIE WHICH FROM MY EXPERIENCE WITH THE FRONT 2 SIDES...  1 GALLON IIS NOT ENOUGH FOR 2 SIDES.  

AT THE MOMENT I WOULD GUESS THE BACK WILL BE SOME SHADE OF BLUE-- AND THE END FACING THE BARN GETS THE REST OF THE COLORS ALL DUMPED IN TOGETHER AND STIRRED WITH THE FLY SWATTER

ALSO I  WAS THRILLED TO BE ABLE TO PROVVIDE LINDA  WITH HER FIRST PAINITNING EXPERIENCE-- SHE HAD NEVER PAINTED BEFORE-- CAN YOU IMAGINE????  ANKLE ANNIE WAS A PRO--- AND BY PUTTING JACKIE'S HUSBAND UP IN THE BUCKET  OF THE TRACTOR - WE GOT THE HIGH PARTS DONE BY ADDING SOME "CREAM COLOR" TO THE MIX.

NOT A PLACE YOU WANT TO WORRY ABOUT PERFECTION-- 

OR INVITE OSHA FOR A VISIT EITHER.

BUT IT WILL GET A COAT OF PAINT.

I AM TOLD ADDING ENOUGH COLORS TOGETHER YOU GET BLACK..

WE WILL SEE--- I HAVE THA T BLUE AND ABOUT 10 CUPS OF A VARIETY OF COLORS LEFT.

I WILL NOT BUY MORE PAINT AT HOME DEPOT

IT IS AGAINST MY RELIGION... UNLESS THEY HAVE 2 MATCHING GALLONS OF YELLOW ON THE $2 RACK.  THAT WOULD GIVE US A SECOND COAT ON THE 2 FRONT SIDES AND I WOULD STILL SCREW AROUND WITH THE BACK 2....

IT IS MY NATURE.

ALSO IT IS WHY I AM NOT CONCERNED ABOUT THE DROOPING MOBILITY ON THE SIDE OF THE COA VAN---  IT WOUDL BE NICE BUT... THOSE LETTERS DO NOT COME OFF EASILY-- SO THAT FAX GETS PUT ON THE BACK BURNER.

*************

I WAS  DELIGHTED TO HEAR FRM A CAMERA PERSON  WHO TOLD ME WITH GREAT AUTHORITY THAT  IN BRAZIL THEY HAVE  THE SAME SITUATION WITH BRIDGES THAT WE DO ON THE CAPE AND  THE DIRVERS COPE WITH NO PROBLEM...  THURSDAY  ONE BRIDGE GOES OUT  BOUND AND SUNDAY IT GOES IN BOUND.   SHE SAID IT WORKS WELL.

HOW COME WE CAN'T DO THAT???? 

MAKING ME WONDER HOW MANY CAMERA PEOPLE WE HAVE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE EQUATOR????  CAN WE GET A COUNT????

OFF   TO HOME DEPOT----FOR A SHOWER HEAD,. 

CONSULT TOMORROWS DD  TO SEE IF I GET THERE...
