Not much new to report. Hard to believe it's Central Standard Time but got up at our "regular" time.

All the doors are in including the new, wider, bathroom door in our bedroom. Now we do have holes in the floor where the old, smaller door had been. that will have to be dealt with but something that can wait until next year. Not sure what we'll do--cover it with carpet (where do we get the carpet?) or new flooring for the bathroom.

Speaking of flooring--we weren't real thrilled with the Pergo we put in on Cedar Lane. Of course, that was some time ago--more than 10 yrs. Maybe they've improved it. It scratch. Something to think about is that it does up the noise level especially if you're replacing carpet. Carpet does keep the noise level down. But it would be attractive in a living room.

Thought we'd go to something like that when we moved in here but am having second thoughts now. Not sure what I'd go with. A trip to Home Depot or Lowes might bring some ideas. Tile and wood flooring are also cooler on your feel but some times that can be overcome with area rugs. Tough call. At this point, cheap carpet might still be the best bet.

No word from Millie so hope they got off to a good start. Will give them a call later today to see how far they've come. Still going into some fits of despair regarding her visit and her critical eye. Can hear some of her stubborness and criticism of my less-than-perfect lifestyle and it will set me off.

Made the pot roast yesterday. Still want to make spaghetti sauce and freeze that. Lots of clean-up today--dusting, taking care of spider webs (lots of those). Got the covering on the futon washed yesterday and actually put it back on myself.

Good meetings yesterday. Aggies lost--badly! Think the coach will be looking for a new job next year!

Beautiful weather here! Dry and cool at night and warm during the day. Perfect. I do believe, despite the heat, we do have more good weather overall than up north. And the sun definitely shines more. We haven't had to have the heat or a/c on now for over a month! That's a savings too. And our tax bill came and it's less than $2,000 which is a third of what it was up north! And we have three times the land!

Not much else today--sorry it's so boring. Maybe something interesting will happen today.

Peace!
