Progress on Abigail's room. Good thing too, Msdrby has been having contractions all day today!
From the last update.
Red and yellow flowers. I cut two basic "petal" shapes from kitchen sponges, and we've used these to may the different combinations. Tomorrow, fingers crossed, we do blue and orange flowers. The red 'paddle' hanging from the ladder is from Spiderboy's ceiling fan. We're painting the blades to match the flowers in his kid sister's room.

Heinlein is always worth reading.
"Those who refuse to support and defend a state have no claim to protection by that state. Killing an anarchist or a pacifist should not be defined as 'murder' in a legalistic sense. The offense against the state, if any, should be 'Using a deadly weapon inside city limits,' or 'Creating a traffic hazard,' or 'Endangering bystanders,' or other misdemeanor.
"However, the state may reasonably place a closed season on these exotic asocial animals whenever they are in danger of becoming extinct."

I try not to look at him at all.
I've not yet experienced the irrepressible need for an inferiority complex.
To: Professional Engineer
Wow! That's really cool PE! So, any more info on the contractions? Are these Braxton-Hicks? Or ya think they're regular and getting stronger?

Myran likes Heinlein. Don't really know what she's been reading lately. I know she brought some stuff to read... and she still has quite a bit here, but we haven't talked current reading yet. :-)
But, we gotta get to that. I read a coupla books she recommended since we last talked and I gotta find out what she's been into. We may be talking all night you know! :-D

She's had the Braton-Hicks stuff for a few weeks now. She, and the doctor, said these were slightly different. Weak, but regular. 'Course she waited all day to tell me 'bout them!

Yesterday, elf-boy asked us, "Why do we live in Texas?". I told him, "Because, it's the best place on Earth".

Texas When I Die Lyrics
Artist(Band):Tanya Tucker
When I die I may not go to heaven
I don't know if they let cowboys in
If they don't just let me go to Texas, Boy!
Texas is as close as I've been.
New York couldn't hold my attention
Detroit City couldn't sing my song
If tomorrow finds me busted flat in Dallas
I won't care, 'cause at least I'll know I'm home.
When I die I may not go to heaven
I don't know if they let cowboys in
If they don't just let me go to Texas, Boy!
Texas is as close as I've been.
I'd ride through all of Hell and half of Texas
Just to hear Willie Nelson sing a country song
Beer just ain't as cold in old Milwaukee
My body's here, but my soul's in San Antone.
When I die I may not go to heaven
I don't know if they let cowboys in
If they don't just let me go to Texas, Boy!
Texas is as close as I've been.
When I die I may not go to heaven
I don't know if they let cowboys in
If they don't just let me go to Texas, Boy!
Texas is as close as I've been.

Holy smokes... I do have to concede my geekdom to you...
but as far as Jim Morrison goes... I can't prove it but I'm pretty sure I'm met 'im. Or at least it was someone doing a pretty darn good impression...

Of course, since he is an elfBOY you could always tell him he lives in Texas for this reason!
Texas Women Lyrics
Artist(Band):Hank Williams, Jr.
I've got some fond memories of San Angelo,
and I've seen some beauty queens in El Paso,
but the best lookin women that I've ever seen,
have all been in Texas and all wearin jeans
Chorus:
I'm a country plowboy, not an urban cowboy,
and I dont ride bulls but I have fought some men,
drive a pickup truck, trust in God and luck
and I live to love Texas women.
I thought I'd seen beauty in faraway places,
till I looked upon those Houston faces,
spent Hollywood nights up in Beverly Hills,
but they werent nothin like one night down in BROWNSVILLE
Repeat Chorus
I'm a pretty fair judge of the opposite sex,
and I aint seen nothin that will touch em' yet,
they may be from Waco or out in Lampassas,
but one thing about it they all come from Texas.
Repeat Chorus
I'm an Oiler fan not a soccer man,
and my arms are red and so is my blood,
and they make it boil with that soft Texas drawl
and I love em all, Texas women.

Don't forget when the preacher at grandpa's funeral asked elf-boy if he was from Florida, what his response was, LOL!
"I live in TEXAS!"

In 1976 I was busy figuring out that I'd have to live to 112
in order to see the tricentennial.Gotcha beat. The TrCentennial will occur a month before my eleventy-first birthday.
