LOL! That's my office, not my bedroom...it's a tiny office, not a huge bathroom. Oops...I guess I switched subjects rather abruptly!

I don't have a clothes steamer...maybe I could improvise in some way.

I don't plan on going too deep, though - the paper that's still left isn't really flaking off or anything, so I figure if I just get anything loose off, I can just leave it. I'll probably get Dad's opinion on that - he just finished painting most of their house, so he's had experience!

Now g'nad, I am not happy to hear that! - I know that predators must hunt, I just can't help rooting for both sides!

"Song blue"...what's the brand? We used Valspar, "Soft Touch".

California is the brand. It's a very soft pale blue, with maybe a bit of grey to the color. Very nice.

I just hope it looks as good on the walls as it does on the paint sample strip!

Hair, you might like this...we were messing around with my brother's digital camera this weekend (hence the kind of crooked pictures of the home decorating project), and I got one pic of my dog. Unfortunately the flash was on, so her eyes came out wrong, but she's still pretty cute (OK, so I'm biased!).

Good morning everyone...

Got a whole lotta don't wanna here this morning... and from reading what everyone else is posting here it looks like I'm not the only one.

Good morning to you!

Still waking up myself, truth be told.

The traffic was HORRENDOUS this morning and it took me almost an hour to get to work. Had to rush and get the coffee made, pull out the e-mails, fix the spooling problem with my printer and finally get started on the "real work" before my boss came in to add to the ever-growing TO DO pile on my desk.

Regardless, I always make time to stop in the Hobbit Hole to prepare a meal and say hi to my friends! :)

P.S. The evil is growing...I want my Preciousssss..... :)

In her case, I think it's just her true soul shining through...little beast!

But I love her just the same.

Good morning Bear.... it is still early here, so I can still get away with this behavior for a bit. Need to get busy a little later, but that is then, this is now!

Good Morning Sam.

Yes, I grew up in the Allegheny Mountains, which are of course a part of the larger Appalachian Mountains. My mom's house is just a mile from the trail and my home town is a major checkpoint for hikers.

My comment about the mountains on "The Waltons" was more that they were filmed in the California mountains which don't really resemble the Blue Ridge.
