We have made huge progress in the remodeling of our garage. You can see the walls are done..thankfully! We primed the walls and painted them with texture paint which I think looks just like plaster. We used the cross-hatch design and a cream/tan color paint that we both liked. Today our upright freezer will be delivered and tomorrow is the BIG day...the men come and install the carpeting. My husband has lots more to do ....the ceiling, and wood trim. I'll help where I can...smile. Its going to be quite a transformation. We both agreed if we had known it was going to be this much work, we wouldn't have tackled this job. Since it is happening though, we like the improvements mega much! I have been too busy to post much but next week should slow down for me I hope *s*. I've recently realized that ......it seems to me that perhaps Blogger is very slow. I seem to spend a lot of time waiting for pages to load, and at times go away without being able to leave a comment. We have high speed but you would never know it unless I leave the blogging community of online friends. Has anyone else noticed this?

"Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net." Psalm 25:15

"Neither is there salvation in any other; for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved" The book of Acts 4:12

wow! what a lot of work, but something you guys will enjoy for years to come! ... so happy for you! i remember the days when leo and i would work on things - we both miss his health for things like that - the Lord knows and gives grace ...

and yes, i've noticed the slow bogger lately too ... sigh ... and now that i have high speed, why i want to zip along at a high pace! *grin* ...

i know what you mean about not having time to post ... i've been lost in thought, prayer, more thinking ... the type of mental activities that don't lend themselves to socializing or sharing ... i guess after the packing and sorting of material things - the same is happening to my mental baggage!

(hugs) to you, dear maggie ann ...

Hello Miss Maggie, how wonderful to see what you are up to these days...*VBS* Yes (*G*) I know..*G*...and hugs to you too!!! Finn

P.S. Yes, Blogger is having some kind of pains..not sure if it's growing pains or indigestion...but the wait was just awful with my dial uo connect. I spent about 36 hours between Wed. a.m. and Thursday noon switching over to DSL with my local phone company. Things are better but still a tat slow.
