St Patrick's Day was memorable!

Well, for all the wrong reasons it was. I had a dental appointment first thing in the morning for a deep cleaning. Urgh. So, Harlan went along to get some teeth filled. (Which they didn't do.) A productive morning and out to spend the holiday together! That's not quite what happened, though. These deep cleanings take a whole lot longer than I thought (about three hours!) and they decided they wanted Harlan to have a cleaning before they decided where to go from there. He needs a LOT done. So after my cleaning, we went to lunch (which was a total adventure, since my novacaine hadn't worn off) and then back for Harlan to get a deep cleaning. It was almost dinner time when we got out of there. We had spent the whole day there! It would have been a whole lot nicer if I had remembered to take along my book (we were in Harlan's vehicle) so I could read something other than magazines while waiting.

After that we went looking around at Home Depot. I found the kitchen countertop I want! It's black with beautiful silver flakes in it. Silestone was the brand. I must remember that. I love looking around and planning out how we're going to remodel this place as we get the money. My sewing room still needs the doors done.

So we got ourselves an interior decorating program for the computer, came home and had supper and I did get to watch Dr Who on the scifi channel! Very fun! But there was no real carrying on for the holiday, darn it. Maybe next year. At least I don't have a hangover!

Today I'm going to start in on my spring cleaning, I think. I listed it at http://www.43things.com which is a marvelous site! Check it out!
