It all started as a simple little backyard...... Where there sat a tiny Castle and lot's of dead grass.... Not much personality but certainly tons of potential.... And then We moved in and had a Vision.... So we called in the bulldozers and the steam shovels.... They showed up at Dawn..... Waking everyone within a 3 block radius.... They pulled up trees....and tore up the grass.... Were we crazy to take on such an enormous project.... Oh heck no.... I was getting my Pool!!!! So the Boss supervised from afar.... Thinking that I must have lost my mind for talking him into this.... In short time......actually the first day they arrived.... We had a huge hole in our backyard.... I told the Boss not to worry that is would be spectacular.... Even after 41 years of Marriage I think he doubted my judgement.... But I knew this backyard was made for this.... With a Six Week time frame I had a feeling that it would be like in the Movie "The Money Pit".... Where every time they asked...

I am in the middle of Decorating Floor #2.....and I am looking forward to Showing you all The other half of the house.... But in the Meantime....Since Decorating up a flight of stairs is a Bit Hard when your wearing a cast on your foot......It is once again a "Post About Nothing"..... and a few Good Ideas thrown in.... With the Internet as a source of news we no longer buy the local paper.... So when I had to pack up my things I needed to find cheap packing material.... Thinking outside the Box.... I remembered I had leftover Christmas wrapping paper that I had bought Cheap.... In fact I had gift wrap from The Dollar Tree also.... Way cheaper then buying a dozen Sunday newspapers and much larger to wrap those larger items....it worked like a charm... I am one of those picky picky people at the Deli Counter that has to have their Deli meats cut just so......paper thin without being shaved.... I hate shaved...it looks like it's been chewed and spit out....Not good... Anyhoo...
