So, I spent about 15 minutes in the laundryroom opening and closing the washer to try to get as much water out as possible without breaking my machine. Then I decided that they were way to wet to put into the dryer so I decided to put them over the rail on the back deck, but first I had to clean the rail since it hasn't been cleaned all winter. Now, I'm thinking $300 to $350.....

OH HECK NO!!!! Those pillows were much more expensive than that!!!!! :lol: :lol:

Yeah, it sure adds up fast under these circumstances, don't it?? :lol:

Take yourself to a happy place and just think of ALL the fun you'll have shopping for/buying fabric. Yeaaaa!!! Instant stress reliever.

LOL, of course AFTER all the work is done, he says something....Aw....I really hope you go and have a terrific time, and yep, make a few fabric stops, for all your hard work!

You guys ARE NOT going to believe what just happened. He just came in the office and asked if I could fix dinner early because he wants to watch the Laker game. I decided that killing would be too good for him, instead I think I'll just torcher him for the next 43 years! He is going to need a bigger dog house soon, very soon.

This reminds me of my mom & dad one summer. One or the other (I forget which) got teed off because the other had spent more money on something than was thought necessary. By summer's end they had racked up $$$$$ trying to outdo each other. Us kids still laugh about it. Mom & Dad are both gone and it's memories that keep them alive in our hearts.
