Pre-Thanksgiving Weekend

Since I have to work all of Thanksgiving weekend (and I mean ALL...Thurs-Sun), Lon and I have been blessed by Mother Nature with gorgeous weather and four days off together.  We have played, watched college football, put up Xmas decorations, wrapped presents (yes, I am almost done) and painted.  The weather was nice enough to open doors/windows and we painted.  You may remember from our earliest pics of Cabinooga that they had a very sad baby blue painted on several walls.  A baby blue we were not fond of from Day 1.  Today we changed that.  We chose Hazy Stratus from Valspar and we LOVE it!!!  Here are some 'before' pics.  Will take some 'after' pics tomorrow and post them.  I still have to work on the trim, so don't expect 'after' pics for a day or so...


Wow...the cabin looks so nice and clean when it's empty...the baby blue also went up on the balcony (over kitchen).  I can't wait you to show the new and improved!

Happy Turkey Day!!!

20 days and a wake up!


Bear with me...don't know how much I'll be updating in the next three weeks. I have Test #4 tomorrow at 0730, Test #5 on Mon, Dec 6th and the comprehensive final on Mon, Dec 13th. I also have three online tests to do in between. Add that to working three days this holiday weekend (plus my regular days) and I'm not going to have a lot of time outside of studying for much else. I did my studying for tomorrow's test and have put those notes away. Wish me luck...
Lon's decided to spend his Thanksgiving day making dinner for us (I get home at 1530). Have I mentioned...I have the best husband EVER! :)
Guess that's it for now...better start thinking about sleepy time. If I don't update before then...Happy Thanksgiving!!!!
I'm so thankful for my best bud/husband, my friends, my family, a job, a roof over our heads, cars that run, food on the table, and a smile on my face. :D
