A Busy Week

Miss Penny sure has been busy this morning.  She has been guarding the house from the squirrels that are hiding pecans in the yard.  She has been running from window to window to door.  I know I can count on her to keep an eye on the squirrels and birds J

Yesterday I drove to WalMart in Opelika to pick up the ottomans that I ordered.  I had looked at ottomans on a lot of different websites and these were the only ones that were in the color range I was looking for.  Besides I did not want any print because of the chairs and room size rug. I also didn’t want buttons on them because of Penny.  I didn’t want leather or faux leather because of Penny.  So, anyway, I picked them up yesterday.  They were not exactly the color I wanted.  The website said khaki but they are much lighter.  But that’s okay.  They will be fine.

The reason I bought them is because I do not have a recliner since I bought my chairs and love seat.  The chairs do recline a little and the foot piece the comes up is very minimal.  Jana needs to prop her feet up so I knew I needed to do something before she arrived.  This was my choice.

This morning I am cleaning, and Penny just loves it when I run the sweeper.  She has spent most of the morning on top of my high bookcases.  She lays up there and watches.  I’m not sure if she is hiding or waiting to pounce in case I need protection.  Anyway, room one is finished and she is not off the bookcase and smelling everything. 

Another room is finished so Penny and I are going to rest.  Also finished two loads of laundry and changed my bed.  It’s been a busy day.  Even Penny is worn out from watching.  I didn’t really take a nap.  Instead I worked on my garland I am crocheting for my Christmas tree. 

It is now Saturday afternoon and I tired!  I just finished cleaning my living room which included moving ALL the furniture and completely rearranging the room.  I even moved one piece of furniture from my bedroom (night stand) to the living room to be used as an end table.  I also moved another piece of furniture into the dining room, then moved the dining room table to another spot in the dining room.  Miss Penny is totally confused.

Didn’t do a lot today.  Was sore from moving all that furniture yesterday.  I paid some bills and not much more.  Went to Kevin and Renea’s for supper.  Kevin smoked a pork butt, and Renea made macaroni salad, beans and slaw.  Cake for desert.  I came home with leftover pork and some leftover hillbilly lasagna.  I’m all set for a couple of days.  Watched the NASCAR race.  Started it at home finished it with K and R.  Came home and watched the end of the Packers/49ers game.  Packers won!
