Blogging is Easy-Who Sez'!

I have been trying for the last several days (more like a couple of weeks!)) to add a new post to my blog, BUT. . . first I forgot how to sign in and by the time I figured that out, I was too tired (or frustrated) to continue. Then I wanted to download new pictures to include--mostly pictures of the progress on my house. Guess what? No can do. Guess I need a new USB cable. So after a few more days, I checked at Wally World and couldn't find one there. So finally today I ordered a new cable online hoping that a new cable will fix the problem. Can't imagine what else it could be.

Spring has come to East TN--the weather has warmed and everything is in bloom, Redbud, Dogwoods, Flowering Cherry, forsythia (almost gone now), tulips, (the daffodils are long gone) and all the trees are leafing out, what green! Of course, that means the lawns are coming to life and need to be mowed! I love the Spring here (and the Summer and Fall) can't say too much for winter though. It was SO cold this past winter. I am so hoping to be in my new house this Fall!

Speaking of the new house, the foundation is done and the framing can start anytime-hopefully this week. I had to make the final decision about the windows today--Scareeeee! I opted for upgraded wndows which should be VERY nice considering how far over budget I had to go to get what I wanted. I have been agonizing over brick and roof color too! I am good at interior colors but the outside is another story and SO permanent. Will add pictures of the progress when I can!

Happy Easter to all. Maybe I'll dye some eggs for Harry and Missy.

I'm sure you picked the right windows. As for brick and roof colors, I remember the trouble we had deciding exterior paint colors last fall. We went with the existing color scheme, but even that is more easily changed than bricks and roofing...

I bought a home-make-over type magazine at the grocery store today. It was $6! Totally out of character for me. Maybe I'm turning into my mother?
