The county I live in is called 'the redneck capital of the world,' though ... and I kept trying to picture some of these bedroom suites ... or huge, dark living room pieces ... in a double-wide. It would be absolutely suffocating.
I think what stunned me was how much of it there was ... I would guess that 90% of what we saw was that real heavy, ornate stuff. There was very little suitable for a guest room, which is what we were looking for. We did finally find just the right thing and are looking forward to its arrival.
Hubby has been painting the room this weekend. We had humored both of our children when they were living here and let them paint their rooms very, very dark green. It's required several coats of paint to go from that to off-white with just the faintest hint of color, even when using a primer.
Emchild will stay with us a couple more days and go back to her place, and return to classes, on Wed. There is no school on Tuesday anyway; and tomorrow will be spent getting caught up on the classwork she missed last week.
She has really perked up. Hope it lasts a while.
It was nice having all three kids home for a short time today. Older son came over to watch the game, younger son got home in time to catch the 4th quarter, and Em was already here.
Anyway...................
Sweet dreams to all you sweet people.

Well, I did the Spybot and the Ad Aware thingy. I can't believe the difference it made in the speed of my computer.
I was pretty insecure about doing it by myself, but it went okay. I think. Maybe I'm too dumb to know what mistakes I made.
