My 2 Kids For Him

Nov. 4, 2008
I don't know about you, but I'm a little (actually a lot) sad with the outcome of the election. So history was made tonight, and I feel led more than ever to pray for our country. But I know God is still on the throne. As I sat thinking about it, I made myself even more sad (nothing to do with the election)........I was just thinking about how when the next presidential election rolls around, my dd will be able to vote. Wow, that was a lot for me to swallow. Some of you probably sit back and smile at me because you have kids already there:)
Anyway, I need to change the subject. We finished ds's room a few weeks ago. What I like most about his "new" room, is I don't have much money in it. For the first time, I refinished a few pieces of furniture. Of course with my mom's and dh's help.:) And it actually turned out quiet nice. We sold his bed on craigs list, (You should try it if you need to get rid of something. We've sold quiet a bit of things on there.) So I ordered him a new bed....a platform bed, bought a new comforter set, new drapes and curtain rod, and a new floor lamp. Nothing else in his room is like brand new. He wanted to set the fish tank back up in his room, so we dug it out, got it ready  and dh took him to get some fish. Here are the before pics....

and the after pics.....



Well, you can get a idea of how it looks.
Once again, I  waited almost a month between blog entries, but I'll try to do better....yea right. I've kinda been wrapped up in facebook here lately. Anyone have a facebook, let me know and I'll add you. But of course I like my blog of over 2 years much better. My online journal is fun to look back on. Kinda helps me remember some things over the last couple years, that I may would've otherwise forgotten:)
Lastly, I would like to thank those of you who prayed for my grandmother. She did go home to be with Jesus the Friday after my last blog.

Thanks for stopping by. They are beginning to show some signs of improvement, but they aren't well yet.

Good for you refurnishing the furniture. I have an end table that needs it desperately. My 3rd is looking forward to us redoing her room, hopefully this winter.
I'm going to have to try Craig's list. I hear so much good about it.
