Diva Dresses

Diva Dresses is a charity for breast cancer awareness. I choose to support this charity this past week by viewing the dresses that Princess Diana had worn. If you know me you are aware that this is one of my small obsessions that you learn about me upon visiting my powder room. I had not seen this exhibit before and thoroughly enjoyed it. Here are the only pics I could take as none were allowed inside. My favorite was the taffeta dress worn by Diana during one of her Christmas's at Balmoral. Posted by Picasa

random updating

So I know that it has been at least a month or less since I have posted anything. Just a few thoughts. The month of July was a busy one with the beginning of August being the same. We live in Florida and people like to spend their vacations here. We started out the month with Dago's sister and her family, kept the middle with Terri and ended the month and started August with Dago's parents who just left this past Monday. His parents were wonderful while here. They always like to have a project of some sorts and this time was no different. All of my white baseboards, doors and trim were painted during the beginning of their visit. The last weekend was spent painting our bedroom. Tried to take a couple of pics, hope you get the feel. We had it painted "Ocean Tide" thanks Brenna. It really is a beautiful and relaxing bedroom. We moved the TV out and have not missed it. Only have the bed, our chiffarobe and Rocko's sleeping headquarters. One of the You will also notice a few pics of the BEAR that visited the Friday prior to their leaving. I always wondered where they came from and where they were going. We have had several sightings of bears since living here. This was actually the closest that I have gotten. He was across the street in Norm's backyard, preceded to climb the fence, meander across Hunt Club, climbed another fence and was gone. Rocko was going nuts inside of the house. He looked as if he wanted to wander on down to Cimi and Randy's but decided not to. Work has been work. We are still in the midst of becoming mymacy's, a little stressful at times, but it is all good. Dago has been staying busy at his job. My one enjoyment of the summer had it's last visit today. Erinn was cleaning the house weekly and is now on her way back to Gains ville for her last semester at school. I will miss her and her talents at keeping my house clean. So that is about all for now. Hope everyone is well and enjoying the last of summer.
