    I am still on a mission to find two bar stools. I actually found some nice ones at Walmart of all places and they looked great. Go figure they are out of stock and not sure if or when they are getting more. I called a half dozen Walmarts in my area and none any place.

    Gavin kept getting lost. He has two rooms. Only because one is an extra so he has a bedroom and a play room. He kept running in the wrong rooms. Cracking me up all night. My kitties are all confused.

    We looked everywhere also for for our bar stools with no luck. Until we found two stores that sold mostly bar stools.

    Try Googling bar stools in your area.

    I googled it many times. I was willing to pay shipping from any place. But the cost of some of those stools are crazy. I was trying to find the right look under a certain amount. I did go to a local store here but they didn't have many to pick from or to order. That's what made me go online. Its not urgent. I need to realize I don't have to have everything at once. But I want it all now.

    How are you by the way. We haven't talked in ages. How are you feeling?

    Decorating is the best part Stringer. I keep buying everything new and we can't really do it. But I am doing it anyways.

    I recall you had a secret room built in, did he find the secret room :D

    He did and he loves it. Its in the picture I posted. There is a wall of cupbards that are behind the island and that's the room. It kind of looks like a door in the picture but really when your in the room it just looks like a wall of cupbards. So cool. Plus he has a walk in closet that he is using for a "fort" I don't care. I am letting him.

    Hey unky.
    How is it today. Its so beautiful here. The sun is out and bright. The leaves are all beautiful. A warm breeze and its blowing pretty leaves all over. I love fall.

    Today was great! Not much sunshine, the day was warm with a cool breeze throughout. I just love those days :p

    It is very different from the usually scorching sun :)

    That sounds so pretty. We are having thunder and lightning, and it's pouring. Pete has been so scared - he keeps needing petting and comforting.

    Its beautiful JLo. We have a friend coming tonight after work to help us move furniture. I think I am going to take a time out and play in the leaves with the kids. These days are rare.

    Well I am like that. I always look around and I think I only have right now to do it. Gavin will be one day older tomorrow and maybe hate leaves. It could rain or snow. For that I need to play today.

    I know Gavin will look back one day and realize how wonderful you made his life - literally full of wonder. That's the way I feel about my parents and it means a lot to me.

    Funny my parents were total opposite. My mom couldn't be bothered. With nothing. Forget school functions or joining sports. That just put her right out. I never got a birthday cake, ever. Lucky to get a card. So for me I guess that's why I go over board at times. For the reasons your saying though. I want him to feel happy and that he had a full childhood. I don't want him to sit on the couch with a TV remote in his hands. There are leaves to be jumping in for crying out loud! Sometimes we even play in the rain. My neighbor wasn't happy the day I sent her little girl home soaking wet from being on the trampoline in the rain. But it was so warm and they loved it. What was the harm?

    There was no harm. I bet she had the time of her life. I think you have a great outlook.

    Right. We drive to Big Sur on Thursday. It's all gone so fast.

    I told you it will. Take it all in second for second. Don't let one minute slip by without enjoying it. It goes so fast and even faster once life starts together. You will be so happy and then its 10 years already. Pose for every camera, smile or be silly. You will be happy to have it all captured.

    If your on FB right now you will see this. I get a call for an interview at this security place here in town. Awesome benefits and pay. I was all over it. I call my boss and told him I was closing the store because I had an interview. I thought it was funny. Go to leave, flat tire. Flat like a pancake. GGGrrr...
    No big deal since I wasn't dressed for an unexpected interview with all my clothes between houses I didn't dress nicer today like I normally do. I was able to reschedule. Lucky again there is a garage across the road and they can get me in and have it done by the time I am done work. I am just putting all new tires on. I have needed them for a couple years and didn't want to spend the money. Now I am. To funny for me still because I called my boss again and told him I was going to the interview at 10 in the morning.

    For some reason that entertains me. Telling my boss I have an interview so I am closing his store.

    Maybe, just maybe... your flat tire was given to you by your boss?? :)

    I'm stopping in to say goodbye. I'm going out for a luncheon with a group of people I work with, and then the firm is letting me off for the rest of the day. I've got all my work done... so I guess this is it. :D Take care everyone, and I'll be back in November. I saw all the well wishes and appreciate them. Sunny - good luck on the interview. Hope you get it.
