Talking Crazy Talk...................

John says - You're nuts
John says - You're out to lunch
John says - You're flat out crazy
John says - You're touched
John says - You're not normal

KITCHEN BOXES WAITING TO BE UNPACKED
CURRENTLY SITTING IN THE FRONT PORCH FOR ALL THE NEIGHBORS TO SEE AS THEY WALK BY

And it dawned on me this week -

He's probably, without a doubt, right on the money

I never actually gave it much thought before -
I just assumed I was " fun " but the sad reality is perhaps I AM a few bristles short of a paintbrush.

He's not the first to say it.
Far from it.
My ex thought I was crazy too.
And come to think of it, most of my friends say it also ( it doesn't count if they're shaking their heads and laughing, when they do so )
My kids have even accused me of it ( but they've earned the right, I have to admit )
And some of you guys have even alluded to the fact from time to time!!!

I've never been diagnosed - so what if I am, in fact, as crazy as a loon?

WHO, IN THEIR RIGHT MIND, WOULD HAVE BOUGHT THIS HOUSE?

Seriously?

Only someone who was
Nuts.
Out to Lunch.
Flat out Crazy.
Touched.
Not Normal.

That's who.

And if that's the case - then this house adventure is entirely John's fault - really - how can someone who's
" not all there " be held accountable for these decisions?

I mean if you're going to let the crazies run the loony bin than you're going to have to accept the crazy decisions they make, right?

And if you can't see that than that means you're probably bat shit crazy as well -

Sooooo, John's either
Nuts.
Out to Lunch.
Flat out Crazy.
Touched.
Not Normal.

Or a completely irresponsible caretaker.

Whatever, I'm absolving myself of all blame from this point forward.

It may all be worth it in the end - but wow - this one's a tough one...................
BUT last night we slept in our bedroom - it's not quite finished ( decor wise ) because I can't find the boxes with my decor in them lol - BUT WE HAVE A BED IN A BEDROOM -
These are not final reveal photos - just a sampling - and a messy one at that -

I whipped the curtains open to take this photo
John says - half asleep - What the hell?
Suzan says - it's too dark in here to take a photo
John says - Do you plan on taking a photo with me in the bed?
Suzan says - I don't mind - if you'd like to stay in it, that's ok

Even Soda was a little aggravated

And as much as I hate a t.v. in the bedroom - when there's nowhere else to sit in the house basically - let me tell you, a t.v. in the bedroom is a GOOD thing................

Much love

P.S. everyone wanted to know what an electric shovel was - at your service :)
It's just a mini snowblower really - it REALLY is an electric shovel - fantastic for walkways

From a Distance

From a distance................the world looks white and grey ♫

Monday - John says - The snow is going to start any day now - tell Gordie we need that bloody electric shovel back
Tuesday - John says - They're calling for snow - I need that bloody electric shovel back
Wednesday - John says - Have you spoke to Gordie - where's the bloody electric shovel?
Thursday - John says - I have a feeling we'll never see that bloody shovel again

I call Gordie -
Gordie says - Hello?
Mom says - Hi sweetheart - John says we need the bloody electric shovel back
Gordie laughs - Tell him I'll bring it by after work tonight
Mom says - Oh good - because John thought we'd never see it again
Gordie says - Tell him I sold it to a farmer in Siberia

The snow fell Saturday night..................
A lot of snow fell Saturday night.................

Suzan says - It's snowing pretty heavy out there - you should move the cars so that the snow removal service
can do the driveway
John says - I have no idea when they're coming - they're all over the place here
Suzan says - So maybe move them now - that way you don't have to think about it ...............
John says - Nah, I'll do it later.............

The snow removal truck has come and gone - and our cars are buried in snow.................

John says - Great now I have to dig the car out to go get coffee
Suzan says - Take the electric shovel
John says - It's easier to just use the regular one.

Suzan says - You could send someone to the BLOODY insane asylum - I swear to God John

We're in the midst of a blizzard here 

Suzan says - WHY DID YOU WANT THE ELECTRIC SHOVEL BACK THEN?
John says - Well you never know when you might need it ..................

From a distance - safe in the upstairs office - shaking my head in disbelief

You can't even see where the street starts - it's pretty bad out there - but at any rate - we have the electric shovel safe and warm in the porch - because hey - you just never know when that particular item will come in handy.

and now I'm about to put the bedroom together - as best I can - because I can't take sleeping in this room anymore................which is basically wall to wall bed -

which will ultimately be the guest room - so if any of you plan on visiting - bring your claustrophobia meds!!!!!!!

I just brushed on the final coat of paint on the floor - so happy I went with gloss - it look so pretty with the reflection of the window on it :)

I need someone to build me a window seat - for free - and who ever is willing to do that I would let them come play in the snow for a weekend ...................any takers?
I didn't think so

A dresser will most likely sit in front of it for now - temporarily you understand :)
Maybe I'll just sit on the dresser with a good book  ( like a Buddha - facing the outside and scare all the neighbors half to death )

Stay tuned for the reveal - woo hoo - you get to see a bed and a dresser LMHO

Have a wonderful day all!!!
