TBD on Ning

STATUS UPDATE

So here we are looking around, taking a peek... hanging out.

On some thread a bit ago, some one said how annoying the FB was with all the trivial updating goings on.

Personally, I don't think my daily updating is all that interesting but some times I really feel the need to share. My kitties don't give a whit and the bird...well, he lives in his own world. His updates would mostly involve "lived another day"..."got some of that shredded stuff again (cheese)" etc.

Mostly, I have you fine folks to droll on about my meager existence and occasional moments of wonderful.

So, here you go...Keep it brief...mundane with a bit of intrigue.

I haven't looked in for a couple of weeks. Thanks to DD for making my life a little easier. Only took me about 2 minutes to catch-up reading your Readers Dijest version of things.

I got an advertisement in the mail from Fiat. It says that if I come in and test drive one of their new Fiat 500 series cars, that they will give me a $50 gift certificate for either Neiman Marcus, or Amazon. I did some Googling, and this seems to be a legitimate offer. Guess I'm going for a test drive. I can but quite a few books for my kindle from Amazon for 50 bucks!

I went and got the coupon $50 dollar Amazon.com gift card yesterday. Told the guy up front that I wasn't going to buy a car, (wish I could cause those cars were COOL!) and the guy printed up my coupon on the spot.

I also finally finished up the two wicker chairs I rescued from someones trash. All of the legs had rotted off, but the chairs were basically solid. There were a few breaks here and there that I repaired with contact cement. I also had to weave some webbing under the seats that were sagging a little. I found some PVC plumbing parts at Home Depot that I was able to attach and use for legs. I found some rope that was real close to the same size as the wicker, and wrapped the legs with the rope. Then I tied some macrame knots into a strip that I glued in place to hide the transition from the old stuff that I cut off, and the new stuff I added. Then I painted the chairs a dark brown to match the couch in our family room. I think they came out pretty nice. We had to spend about $60 form two cushions, about $25 for a gallon of paint, and with the PVC pieces, rope, and contact cement, I figure we came in a little under a hundred bucks. Not too bad for two nice chairs, and on top of that, I kept them out of the land fill.
