Feeling an accomplishment

 Today was a good one.  Pancakes came out good for a breakfast change. 

 Sherry is doing well,  She is doing the laundry and is proud of herself for reading a real book, LOL.  A friend loaned her Jan Karon's 'My Beloved.'  She complained about the smaller print, but thoroughly enjoyed the book.  WE followed Jan for a while.  Loved "The Mitford Series." WE both read e-books for the large print. ;-)

Oh yes, the Fish fry went great.  Sherry did her (family famous) Pea Salad.  A recipe she picked up about 1958 in Biloxi Mississippi.  At first I could not find my Fish Fry Equipment.  But I did get it.

Then did French fries, hush puppies and fried the fish last.  My gorl said the puppies were the best she ever tasted. (she is buttering me up!)

Oh yes, and I completed a BIG ask on my to do list.  WE had a bad area in the house. An old unused and disconnected cast iron bath tub in a 5x6 area just outside the master bathroom. With son Mark's help we got the 200 lb+ tub out.  Then I started remodeling.  I redid the Drywall, added slate style flooring there and into the bathroom. I added wainscotting and made chair rail. followed by adding two 120v receptacles.  It  is now ready for a vanity set up and my girl will have a nice make-up area.

Above shot is entering from our bedroom. Bathroom is to the right just insice this door.


This is looking from the master bathroom our Bedroom is just to the left out this door.

I got hugs an kisses for this one.  LOL  She is especially thrilled with the floor, the old tile was breaking and cracked.

Anyway I am also proud of me for finally getting it done It has taken two or three weeks (Maybe a month, so you  can imagine the mess she has put up with. .

Now to bed, but first thanks for the comments, prayers and support.. As we try to climb back into the world.
