pics of bedroom so far

i LOVE this colour. i loved it the moment i saw it on the paint chip card. it’s a shade of purple called heirloom orchid. i love it on my ceiling. i’m going to love it as a stripe behind my bed. LOVE. the wall colour isn’t up yet, so the colour you’re seeing on the wall (ugly ugly poop beige) is the old colour still. that will soon be gone. it looks so much more pathetic in comparison to the new ceiling colour. yuck.
we have greens and purples in our bedding/curtains/rugs and are buying new blinds (wood ones like we have in our living room) so it’s going to be so pretty. our dresser and end tables are black. i might have dennis paint the 2 bookshelves black as well. i’m not sure if my makeup desk is staying. i want the room to feel airy and uncluttered. it’s a big room though so the desk might stay. i hate to get rid of it, after making dennis paint it (it was a long time ago so he might not care) but i don’t use it. *eep*
my cat climbed under the plastic that is covering our furniture so that she could sleep on her chair:
when it’s done, i’ll do a before/after. the befores are on disc so i’ll have to get them out when the time comes.

what a lovely color cant wait for after pics. Enjoy the process

It’s ok you don’t know the ratio for making smoothies. That is good you wouldn’t open Dennis’s mail without his permission. Has he ever asked you to open any of his mail and if not that is ok? What do you consider necessary to open a persons mail? Did you get bills while you were in college and if so is that what your mom would open for you? Again if you respond back put it on a private note. If any notes pertain to opening mail put it on a private note. Thanks.

Pretty!! I love that colour. I have such a hard time picking colours for paint. I have done only the most minimal painting in this house, just the one wall in Haley’s bedroom that had “Gone Fishing” painted on it in big green block letters (I painted the whole wall pink). Oh, I painted over the wallpaper in the dining room (I tore down one layer of wallpaper to find literally five more, so I justgave up and painted it lol) an off white, but that is it.

Now I see when you would open Dennis’s mail. Have you ever had to open a letter he has gotten or opened something so you could deposite the money in his bank account? If Dennis pays most of the bills online than why does he do it at work and not at home. Now I see what your mom didn’t open and what she opened for you when you were in college. How come you couldn’t do your own taxes when you were in college? Even if your mom did your taxes for you how could you sign the tax forms if you were not home.

Nice! 🙂

The reason I am asking you if you have ever opened any of Dennis’s mail is because I opened something today and when I did it ripped in half and I am afraid my bf is going to be mad at me for it ripping in half. My mom said make a copy of what got ripped with the printer I have if I didn’t want my bf to know the thing got ripped and tapped up to fix the problem. Even with the thing being tapped upmy bf can still use it, but I am afraid my bf will tell me I owe him money for what happened. I hope that is not the case since the thing is still usable. I did try to copy the front and back of what got ripped in half today, but it didn’t work out where I wouldn’t lose info on one side of the print out when I cut the paper to fit in the envelope. My mom said if I have to pay my bf money for what happened she would talk to him about it, but I know my bf wont talk to my mom about anything. I don’t think my bf likes my mom. I trust sharing this wont get me in trouble. Once something got ripped when it got opened, but it was just a corner of the thing so no tapping was needed.

RYN the meat: Yeah! I get so tired of going to the store all the time (even though it seems like even when I stock up, we are STILL at the store all the time!), that I try to buy lots when it’s on sale. It’s kinda ridiculous when you think that I am cooking for like THREE people, but it does come in handy when we have bbq’s or whatever to be able to just have it on hand. Having a big chest freezerhelps too, I just stuff it full. I got used to cooking for many mouths when Chantal and her kids and her husband were living here, and now I am having a hard time scaling back!

How did you get this entry title to move on your diary front? I know it’s a code, but what is the code and how did you find the code. If you can’t share the code with me in a note it’s ok, but let me know that OD wont let you share it. You might need to put stars or something in part of the code for it to show up in a note, but not sure. Thanks for sharing the pics. Did the ceiling fan have tobe taken down to paint the ceiling? How did Dennis reach the ceiling to paint it? Did he use a step ladder? Thanks for telling me I was supposed to use the word taped and not tapped. Are these the after pics of the paint job that was done? Now I see why Dennis dose his bills at work. Why wouldn’t you use dial up to pay bills? Now I see why your parents did your taxes for you when you were in college. Where you 18 or older when you started college and if so how could you still have been a dependent for your parents when you were in college? How far away was the college you went to from where your parents lived? Do your parents live in Ontario Canda as well? That is good you don’t see how you could get my trouble over what happened with the thing that got ripped today

I see this entry also has the title of it moving. That is cool you could do that. Where did you put the code for the words to move on your diary front and the actual entry?

oooh. I LIKE that color. Do you think deep red would clash with it horribly? Maybe I’ll just paint my living room that color instead. hmmm.. I really like that color…

That is a shame OD wouldn’t let you share the code for the moving words. I thought I wouldn’t be able to get it, but wasn’t sure. Now I see why you wouldn’t use dial up to pay bills. I have used dial up for years before I met my bf and I forgot that one sometimes gets cut off from the internet with dial up. I can see your point on i wouldn’t want to be in the middle of making a monetary transaction (such as paying a bill) and get knocked off the internet. would you? Of course nobody wants to be knocked off the internet when doin something important like paying a bill online. I thught the fan had to be taken down to paint the ceiling. Where did Dennis get a long handle to paint the ceilling? I mean what was the handle from. How can one be a dependent if one is over 18 years old? Why did you say i lived with them summers in between semesters? To me if you had two semesters in college one of them wouldn’t end up being in the summer so why did you say summer. I am sorry if I didn’t know your mom would stop by where you live. Just because one can stop by often where you live it doesn’t always mean that person lives in the same city.

Now that I think about it didn’t you say you have gone shopping with your mom before. If so sorry I forget that and asked you how far your mom lives from you. How often do you get to see your mom? Do you call your mom every week? My bf didn’t notice the tape on the mail yesterday that got ripped in half. I am glad he didn’t notice it because I wouldn’t want to have to deal with his reaction over the tape on the mail.

those are AWSOME COLORS. I forgot to RYN YOU about my job. I am a dietary aide SOOOOOOO this is what I do I make sure the elders get the right food on their tray and we deliver these things full of the food with their names on it up to the 3 floors. Then we have to wash the dishes. its not so bad though

How can one attach a handle such as a broom handle to a roller? Where did you live when you went to college and they had breaks for Chrstmas? Did you go home to your parents? How come you didn’t have a break for Thanksgiving (I think I recall Canada has theirs in Oct). That is nice you get to see your mom more than once a month. Why did you say I worry to much about how much money Ispend? Is it a bad thing to worry about spending money. If it is it’s ok. Yes, I live on what they call a limited budget. I get the same amount of money each month. I can’t remember if I asked you this or not, but if I did sorry to ask again. Have you ever given out your phone number to anyone online or have you ever called anyone you found online? I ask this because my mom said if I had needed to call her about the mail being taped up yesterday I told her I wouldn’t have been able to call her at the time my bf got upset about the mail being taped up. Than she said I should be able to call anyone I wanted to without my bf asking about the phone call. Than for some reason I said I have called ppl online before and my mom didn’t like I have done that.

(c) My mom said the following. This is why I told my mom I have called ppl online before. Yes, absolutely, as an adult you have the right, and should have your room-mate’s blessing, to call anyone you want to at any time. Monitoring or trying to control your contacts is abusive. Do you feel my mom is right and if so that is ok? My mom also said this. You are a very foolish person who couldget into problems if you call someone you only know from online. The dangers of interacting with people from online contact are well known and written about often. I feel my mom is right and wrong about calling ppl I found online. It’s very rare when I do call someone online. I never have ppl call me if I do call someone so the ppl I have talked to don’t know the number for the phone I use.
