Imelda's here.........

Finally some rain and cooler temps!  Yay for Fall!  I don't want as much rain as Texas got though.  Those poor people!  It's been a rough week for my family with Tracy, my SIL, in intensive care.  He was finally moved to a regular floor yesterday but he is not doing well and they may transfer him to Iowa City.  Please say a prayer for him and his family.
Meanwhile, I try to stay busy to keep my mind off of all the sad things going on around me and in the world in general.  I got my garage steps finished...........I really like the dark gray!
 I also cleaned the door to the garage as it was filthy.  I used Krud Kutter (Walmart) full strength and it did the job!  I then used Restore (Walmart) on it which is for restoring the finish and covering scratches etc.  It worked great also.......                BEFORE:  (40  years of dirt and grime!)
 AFTER:
 I received treasures today!!!  I got a beautiful handmade card from Connie (Far Side of Fifty) and a wonderful hand written note from her.....you made my day, Connie....thank you so much!  On top of that it is HER birthday today not mine.....please stop by and wish her a Happy Birthday....if anyone deserves it...she does!  Look at her beautiful art work.............
 I also got a treasure box from my daughter and the boys....they had it in the works before Tracy went in the hospital.......they are so thoughtful.........2 little catnip mice...one for Grace and one for Miss Peeps.........
 This from the boys........all the 'nut' candy that Grayson can't have and he knows Grandma loves Almond Joy and Reese's PB Cups.......  Plus, there were other things they put in there....a little stained 'glass' (plastic) window hangar.............

 a giant 'jewel'. some mini-sharpies and some lip balm...those boys are so generous....they would give you just about anything if you asked....except maybe their Legos!?!  LOL!
I also got this darling ceramic truck filled with pumpkins.......

 sorry for the lighting today....it is rainy and dark out.......
This magnetized grocery list pad will come in handy...........
and some Penzey's spices and caramel hot cocoa.....I am set for Fall!
 I finally got the shower cleaned and Grace's new "high-walled" litter box installed.   I have a shower mat and drain plug underneath so no litter goes down the drain and I have 2 air fresheners on the soap holders.  Eventually there will be a curtain too.  I plan on sewing some green checked curtains for the window and shower....eventually.
Another goal this week was mow the lawn which I did, get groceries at Walmart, get gas for mower and truck and clean the west side of the family room..........which I did.......I've found if I break my goals down into smaller pieces I get more done otherwise some jobs seem overwhelming....I have more room on this bookcase now and those vintage cowgirl Tea Towels were a gift from my daughter at Christmas.  I just laid them there but I might make them into curtains at some point.  For now they're hiding my bill basket......

 and maybe some yarn so Miss Peeps can't get at it...........what I really need are doors on all my bookcases!
It's time to start supper and work on my knitting after that.  I hope you had a great Friday and have a wonderful weekend!
Happy Trails!!!

  1. I also like the dark grey stairs. That door really looks nice too. That was a lot of elbow grease you did on that. Your grands are so sweet to send you all those sweet gifts. I bet your kitties are happy with their new mice to chase. Putting the litter box in the unused shower is a great idea. I agree, breaking down chores into pieces makes it seem to go quicker and then they all seem to get done. Prayers are going like crazy for Tracy and the entire family.

  2. I love the gifts from your daughter and grandsons. Continued prayers for healing for your son in law, too. Those cowgirl towels are the bomb! I think you accomplish so much.

  3. Your steps and door look wonderful. I really like the dark grey paint. You get so much done on a daily basis. The shower is the perfect place for the litter box. We had high-walled pans for Amelia and Frannie too. So much cleaner than the regular pans.
    The gift box from your daughter and grands is wonderful. Such thoughtfull and personal gifts. They know what you like and chose things accordingly. It makes things even more special.
    I'm sorry your SIL is still doing poorly. I will continue to keep him and your family in prayer.
    Blessings always,
    Betsy

  4. Glad you enjoyed the card. I hope the Doc can help your son in law, saying prayers for all. He is young hopefully that is on his side. I decided to do that CAL with you. I will start soon:)

  5. So very sorry to hear about your son-in-law. I do hope he starts to improve and is able to make a complete recovery. The door and the steps looks great. Just read your previous post, too. Goodness, you have so many projects in the works. It's good to keep busy doing things that you love. Take care.

  6. Hi Sam :) Great idea for the litter box. We have three in the basement and they reek a lot of the time. I don't know what we'll do when we move to a smaller house! I love that little ceramic truck! Sending prayers for your loved ones. xx

  7. My Dear friends online, My name is Amanda Bella And i live in USA, ohio, I have to give this miraculous testimony, which is so unbelievable until now. I had a problem with my Ex husband 2 years ago, which lead to our break up. I was not myself again, i felt so empty inside me, my love and financial situation became worst, until a close friend of mine told me about a spell caster who helped her in the same problem too his name is Doctor Oyagu . I email the spell caster and i told him my problem and i did what he asked of me, to cut the long story short. Before i knew what was happen, less than two days my husband gave me a call and told me that he was coming back to me i was so happy to have him back to me. The most interesting part of the story is that am pregnant. Thanks to Doctor Oyagu for saving my marriage and for also saving others own too. Continue your good work, If you are interested to contact the great spell caster email address: Oyaguspellcaster@gmail.com or contact him on VIA Whatsapp +2348101755322

  14. I was so delighted to meet PRIEST AZIBA after a long time looking for help in order to fix the ups and downs with my boyfriend. We lived together for two years without any problems until this year when he started seeing another girl, When I tried talking to him, he decided to leave me for her which made me so heart broken after all we have been through together, he even stopped picking up my calls and also blocked me from calling him. I love him dearly and couldn't accept losing him that's why I decided to seek help from PRIEST AZIBA through his number +2348100368288, he helped me quickly in one day and as I speak my boyfriend is back to me with lots of love and respect like never before.

    EFFECTIVE LOVE SPELL TO GET YOUR LOVE BACK AND BE HAPPY FOREVER...
    From the bottom of my heart, I can never thank you enough DR.BALBOSA for the wonderful work you did for me and my kids to bring back my husband. Am stella Andre from England. I was having serious relationship problems with my husband and he was no longer committed to me and our kids, when i asked him what the problem was he told me he has fell out of love for me and wanted a divorce and  i was so heart broken, i cried all day and night, it had resulted in him moving out to his friend’s apartment. Everything got worse because he started going to bars and strip clubs frequently with his friend, getting drunk and passing out. He always threatens me on the phone whenever I call him because of all the bad advice that his friend has given him. I really love him and we had been married for 8 years which gave us a beautiful daughter and a son. I had also lost a lot of money on therapists until I was introduced to DR. BALBOSA by a friend whom he helped to marry her childhood boyfriend, this gave me total confidence and strength to get him back. I did all that DR. BALBOSA asked me to do it and I also followed all instructions given to me by DR. BALBOSA to my greatest surprise after 48 hours my husband called me and rushed back home with a brown new car for me and our kids... things just changed between us emotionally, I was the happiest woman on earth that day. my husband now has a good job and stopped drinking and he stopped keeping irrelevant friends. It’s a miracle I never believed was possible because I had lost all hope until I found DR. BALBOSA...contact him today and get your love back i can assure you .... contact him on his Email on: balbosasolutionhome@gmail.com and CALL/ WHATSAPP: +2347048047728...BYE...
