introducing Chip and an OPAM update


This is our lake neighbor "Chip". I know that he has a friend "Dale" but I wasn't able to get a picture of him. He stopped to visit last Friday when we first arrived and when Kobi finally noticed him instead of chasing Chip, Kobi sat down and just watched him. Humm. Maybe we'll see Chip again.........
OPAM #2 and #3
Way back in mid-May I decided- as an incentive to accomplish some goals -I would do "One Project A Month".

Last month (mid-May through mid-June) was surviving graduation and the party. And I did survive - barely.

Thankfully that project is completed and I can focus on another one. I've been debating what it is that I want to have as my next OPAM and I've finally made a decision. I have two rooms that need to be switched and updated. There is no way that I can do both in a month so I have to break my project up into two months.

The first month will consist of updating Tony's room and moving my scrapbooking items down into it.

The second month will be to update the spare room and make it a guest room/grandbaby room.

When I say "update", that consists of cleaning, painting, wood work repair, and decorating. And there is no way that I will be completing this project(s) by myself. The hubby knew he was doomed the moment I asked, "what do you think we should do with Tony's room?".

There are a lot of decisions to be made regarding the rooms but one step at a time. I don't want you to think I'm "exaggerating" on the work to be done so I plan to post before and after pictures very soon. Ah, something to look forward to.
