SAME OLD SAME OLD

 One thing that has happened is the door knob on the inside has fallen off my front door, which still feels new to me.  I paid 450 bucks for that door knob/electric lock.  That was six months ago.  You would think it would last a wee bit longer than that for heaven's sake.  And we are seriously handicapped in this house when it comes to even the teensiest repairs. If you have a handyman/woman type in your house be grateful!!!!!

So when the door is closed there is no way we can open it from inside.  And that is dangerous.  There is no way out then except through Ange's place and we can't be doing that...unless there is a fire or something.  I phoned the dude at Windsor Plywood who put the whole shebang together and, of course, he is gone til after New Years.  So we have to leave the door open a smidge and hope we don't get house invaders.

So I left you with a picture of my terrible guest room last post.  And guess what?  It is all clean and ready! What a job.  It has to all be moved downstairs, Sally Ann or garbage.  To move anything downstairs I had to completely reorganize the laundry room. It was worse than the bedroom.  So that is exactly what I did.  And then I went into my bedroom, which was so awful I wouldn't even show it to you.  But I got all that organized as well.  I am on a roll!!!  It feels pretty good.

Next post I will post pics.  I will post an after pic of the guest room, a pic of our humble xmas tree, a pic  of the disastrous gingerbread train.  Ange finally had the 'real' experience with gingerbread.  That train looks awful!

Well I need to go make spinach dip to soak in the fridge til tomorrow night.  I must remember to bring the solid as a rock frozen turkey in tonight to start to thaw.  Tomorrow I will be making all the stuffing as well.  Prep time.  Turkey dinner!!!!  Buckets of cranberry jelly with the can lines indented into it.  Candied yams.  Rainbow carrots and peas.  Mmmmm...cheat baking from the store.  Can't wait!!  So all of you have a very merry xmas and I hope you get lots of prezzies and turkey.  TTYL
