Sprucing up the house

One of the things that I always procrastinate when it comes to interior decorating is what to do with the walls. When I was growing up my mother loved to use wall paper in the different rooms. My father preferred paint. I was always ambivalent – I felt that if the wall paper had a busy pattern then it was “too busy” if I hung photographs or framed art on the wall.

When my first hubby and I moved into our first home we realized that the walls that were already papered were disguising a multitude of flaws in the wall. The previous owners had decided to make creative use of wall coverings to hide the bumps and depressions. I tried a few times to follow suit with that strategy in that older house, but we were on a tight budget and tried to do the paper hanging ourselves.

Since we were amateurs we did not do as good a job as I would have liked. Goodness knows if I had hired a professional to do the work I would have refused to pay him! It was difficult at first for me to learn to overlook the flaws. Unfortunately I am a perfectionist, perhaps even OCD about things like that, so it was very difficult.

The next house was a brand new house with flawless walls. I chose to use paint instead of wall paper. After all it was cheaper than wall paper, and easier to apply. And this time I hired a professional to do the job. I wanted perfection. I didn’t get it. Now I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place about what to do with these eggshell walls. I’d like to go with some color, but I hate the thought of going through all of that work, money, and aggravation, just to end up disappointed again.

Artificial flavorings

Over the years I have had a love-hate relationship with bananas. In fact I often tell people that I don’t even LIKE bananas. I think that the reason for that is from time to time I’ll get something that is “banana flavored” and by that I mean artificially banana flavored, and I just do not like the artificial flavor. Like things that are artificially strawberry or blueberry flavored. They just don’t taste right to me! But, truth be told, there are many banana recipes in my “family favorites” recipe book that my aunt created years ago to share with our extended family and friends. However, these recipes use the real thing, and that makes all of the difference in the world!

I don’t know why I’m always surprised when I go out to run errands on my lunch break and see so many people walking around town in their medical scrub clothing.  After all, this town has a large hospital in it, and I’m sure that some of the employees have errands that they need to run during the work day on their break or before/after their work shift.

I always feel like in the middle of a television filming set of Scrubs! Today I saw a few nurses eating lunch at the table next to mine, and one of them was wearing a cute set of scrubs – it was tailored and looked good on him. I asked him where he had found that set of scrubs and he wrote down the web address on a napkin for me.

I went to that website and browsed around and found a great page full of really nice-looking lanyards. I’ve often wondered where people could get nice looking lanyards – well they have them there! They cost a lot more than I had anticipated, though,

This is a cute and funny video

I’ve seen this video before, but it still cracks me up. This is dubbed over to make it appear that the dog is having a conversation with his owner about food. When I showed it to my parents when they came over for supper last night they laughed like crazy too! So I decided to put it here on my blog to make it easier for them to find it from their place if they want to show it to their friends at a later point in time. So this is for you Mom & Dad!
