Do you think you should be patient? Or should you let go and go wild? Which is better for you, truly?

If I did what I truly wanted to, I would have just showed up on their doorstep this morning! LOL!
But, with David, patience is the best policy. He has his own agenda and timeline for everything, and Mom just better go along with it because he's not gonna change! He just doesn't like hand-wringing.
Boy, I hope he reads this thread! Whew! I asked him to, so he could see all the wonderful things people have done and said. I can see him rolling his eyes at my posts now! LOL!

Did you get an answer about the movie? I haven't seen it but have talked to those who have--and they said it was really good. If you go see it, you can report back to me, soldier, and let me know if I should go see it! :o)

I am excited--but we haven't heard anything YET! You never know if it is that the boat docked late, or if he is just being, like EGS said, Mr. Independence! He has done that before.....not called for 2 days. *sigh* Kids!...even the big ones! LOL!

Nana is home, it was HOT in Texas she says. I'm guessing it was the humidity... And yes, they shopped, and played cards, and played with the baby, and ate well, and she is pooped. She slept most of the way home.
The carpet is going to take 3 days to install...the crew just was taking cuts into the bedrooms to get started. Tomorrow is the dining room, living room, family room...and Wednesday is the outdoor carpet on the back porch.
I think we ordered too light a color, but we'll see.

Piper is a great model to work with.
To: HiJinx
That picture is adorable and the frame just makes it more so.
LOL! Nana comes from AZ, the leader in hot, and says it's hot in TEXAS!!! Probably is the humidity. We have actually cooled off some. It's 91 instead of 101.
Glad they had a good time. What did she buy.....the women want to know!
Man, it's a shame to get all that beautiful new carpet just to be selling the house. I'll bet it'll really be pretty. If it's too light---let the new owners deal with it!
