I Did It!

Do you remember this meme?  My sister, Clara, started it on her blog, which is no longer available online.  I loved this opportunity to share accomplishments and victories with fellow bloggers.  I’ve wanted to see this revived and so I asked Clara if it would be okay to bring it back.  With no hesitation, she gave me her blessing to do that.

For that reason, I have started a new blogger blog to support “I Did It! – Monday.”  You can get there by clicking on the banner.  I invite you to join me on Mondays–or later in the week if that works better for you–and leave a link to you post on the IDIM blog.  And please tell your friends.  Thanks–a lot!

Sylvia’s Big Project

The impetus to launch IDIM this week came from Sylvia.  When she found out that her dad would not be home last Tuesday, she realized she had Monday and Tuesday open.  That didn’t last long.  Monday morning while I was making my usual online rounds, I realized that she was doing something in the bathroom next to the office.  The “cottage cheese” or “popcorn” ceiling was about to be removed.  I helped with removing lighting fixtures.  Then I got out of the way.  (I can be very good about things like that.)  When the day was ended, two bathrooms had smooth ceilings.

Come Tuesday, Sylvia sanded the ceilings, wiped them clean and painted.  Tuesday ended with fresh paint on the ceilings.  Sylvia was very tired, but had a huge smile on her face. 😀

I replaced lighting fixtures on Wednesday and Sylvia did some cleanup.  It’s done!  All I can say is, “Well done Honey!”  Oh, “And thanks.” :up:
