Metal daybeds

Posted on 20th April 2012 in Business, Friends/Family, Home and Garden, Life, Shopping

My wife and I have been talking about buying a couple of metal daybeds to put in the guest room so that we could make the guest room multi-functional. My wife has been talking about using that room as a den/office, and having the daybeds would make it look more like an office than a bedroom. I’d like to see if we could just buy one daybed, though, and maybe it could also be a trundle. I think that would be awesome!

Finally Some Rain

Posted on 18th April 2012 in Environment, Home and Garden, weather

We have had the most wonderful weather for long now. Unfortunately the need for rain has been great, so great that there has been a lot of fires just over the mountain. Some days you can look out and ever so faintly see the smoke that is continuing to billow from all of the wild fires going on over there.

So to wake up to a nice steady rain is a good thing today. Usually the rain depresses me and makes many of my bones ache but today is a good day all the way around. The lawn and the garden sure could use a nice soaking right now. There has been talk of water restrictions being put in place all ready and it is only April for heaven’s sake.

Wish List

Posted on 12th April 2012 in Home and Garden, Internet, Money/Finances, Shopping

Well it seems that the wife has all ready made her wish list up in anticipation of our tax return check this year. She is wanting to find some cream comforter sets to use in our guest room, as well as a daisy bedspread for our daughter’s room. The only thing on her list that I really think she needs is the decorative wall mounted coat racks that we found online a few months back that we just haven’t ordered yet, so when we do get the money in the bank I guess we will go ahead and place the order.

I guess I really need to buckle down and get all the paperwork done and get our taxes filed since we only have a few days left to do it in. I really hate doing our taxes and each year I seem to procrastinate right up to the deadline which really drives the wife crazy. I guess it all stems back to the day when I knew I had to send a check in and didn’t want to part with my money until the very last moment.

April Showers

Posted on 7th April 2012 in Environment, Home and Garden, Opinion

Well we haven’t held true this year with the old saying that April Showers bring May Flowers. I sure hope that we do get some rain soon, my well is acting like it is running on the dry side and that isn’t good news. I wonder who ticked off Mother Nature this year. We have had nothing but wacky weather for so very long, it’s getting old.

New Bathroom Tiles

Posted on 3rd April 2012 in Home and Garden, Home Improvement, Internet, work

I have to admit that the website MetalStainlessSteelTiles.com has some really nice mosaic metal tiles that would look good as the bathroom back-splashes in my parents master bathroom that they are getting ready to tear apart and completely re do in the very near future. They are having to make that bathroom easier for the two of them to get around in, complete with a new hot tub spa that is handicap accessible for my dad to use to get in and out of with little or no effort.

They want this new bathroom to be easy to keep clean as well. So I believe having this nicely decorative metal tile will help in that area, it is easy to clean and it will help brighten it up as well. I’m sure I’ll be assisting my Dad with some of the work that this will all take, but I don’t mind. I rather enjoy working along side my Dad, we don’t get to spend as much time together as I’d like and we get along famously so I look forward times such as this to hand with him when I can.
