Hump day

I do not know why but whenever I think of Wednesday, I automatically think "Hump Day". I think my father use to say it all the time because it after Wed, we are over the hump and heading into the end of the week. I think it is a funny name for a day of the week.

HOH(hunk of husband) and I have been floating through life the last couple of days since our oldest is "up north' and the youngest is in camp until one every day. It seems so quiet. We went to the hardware store and I bought some paint for the front door. I am doing a different color. It currently is a slate blue but has been fading. So, I bought, are you ready for this, a deep purple for the door!!! I have seen it on other houses, although not too many, but I like it. Usually they also do the shutters in purple as well. We do not have shutters. I figure if I do not like it, I will repaint it since it isn't a big job, Sometimes you gotta take chances!

Today I helped my mother at the church were she is a secretary getting the newsletter out. I have not done this since I have had the kids so it was kinda fun to help out again. She took me out to lunch after and then we met my husband and son at the furniture place. We decided to buy the $500 couch rather than the $3500. Even if we had the money, my mother in law is right, I would have been worried about spilling on the more expensive one or getting it dirty. The whole reason I like the $500 one is so I do not have to worry about it!

We also got a matching chair and ottoman. It is actually a chair and a half so my kids can sit with me if they want. Right now they try to sit with me in a regular chair and there is not enough room.

I miss my daughter but I know she is having a great time and will have great memories.
