Six days?! Hahaha. That cracked me up. I have a few of the same needs! Like a new couch. Why is furniture always so far down on the list??

And hubby and I are going to Maine in October!! I'm so excited. I'm going to take a pic of Stephen's house. LOL. Have bail money ready...they'll probably arrest me as a stalker!

Angelia...Thanks! I worked very hard! LOL! Well I'm not that deticated to survivior. We are watching it this season, because of Rupurt.

Loved your last comment! And especially appreciate the mercy granted along with it. And guess what...I sat on my butt watching The Devil Wears Prada, too. Suffered from tingly butt syndrome (and not in a good way.) =)
