I awoke this morning to an email from Lisa Jo. It was so nice to hear from her and get an explanation of what happened. As I read her note I felt horrible, and like a selfish bitch. Yeap, you see I was horrible to her and didn't even realize it. I won't go into all the details as it is not necessary but I am thrilled things are worked out, and Lisa if you are reading this again I am so sorry. If someone pointed her in my direction I thank you :)
Renee' and Mike moved in to their new house today. They had a ton of 'prep work' to do and it is not 100% complete but they needed to move in and out of their old place. No way they could pay a mortgage and rent. I went to the old house and loaded up as much of the small stuff that would fit in my car. I had mostly house plants and things that wouldn't store well on the truck. On the way from the old house to the new house I stopped at a local park and took some shots of a gazebo and the water. I got the pictures and headed on my way. As I drove down the road I noticed a local unfinished furniture store had rocking chairs out front. You got it! I pulled in and snapped a couple pictures. Earlier this evening I tubed the chair and played around with some graphics to come up with the above. I did it rather quickly but still think it came out ok. It won't be the last time you see that chair!
The move went pretty well all things considered, but about mid day we got hammered by a storm. The rain came down in buckets and I needed to run home to close my windows. I should have known better, but it was so hot while I was here I never thought about it. Needless to say my kitchen floor was covered. A huge puddle that extended well under my table. ARGH! At least I got home before it left a dreaded white ring. It also decided to open up after the truck was loaded and before it had to be unloaded, which was great timing!! Some places in the area were not as lucky as the rain caused some flooding. It really didn't last long but it sure hit hard. They are saying it could happen again and again over the next few days. How fun!?!
Well it's late and I need to get my fanny in bed.

It must be a big storm as I heard about it on our news on this side of the pond it said it was covering the whole of the eastern seaboard. Hope youjwill be OK and not get too much of the wet stuff. Love Joan.
I'm glad you worked things out with Lisa Jo. I hope Renee and Mike are happy in their new home and get all the work done. Sorry it rained so hard on you, if you'd known before how wet it'd be you could have hired a boat to deliver all their bits and pieces! Have a lovely week! Jeannette xx
I'm very pleased you got the misunderstandings sorted out. Yep, heavy showers will be the order of the day in your neck of the woods, I'm afraid. Have a good week
