Low Key Easter Weekend Recap

Y'all it almost happened.  It seemed like it was almost a perfect carpet install.  Then the dude grabbed a broom and swept all of the carpet on top, swept the floor, then swept the stairs going downstairs.  Thanks for taking our clean carpet and giving it a fresh layer of unknown dust and dirt all over it.  Then we looked when they left and saw a gap by the baseboard on the landing we weren't happy with and I know they had to have seen it so I fear shoe molding is in our future which we hate.  The final "of course?"  We had a TON left.  Like enough to recarpet another set of stairs easily.  Uh, why are you sending someone out to measure to give us a quote and we have enough left over to carpet another set of stairs and have enough of another piece for a big strip in front of the washer and dryer.  This goes well beyond the "10% waste" they have you get.   (It stretches 2/3 the length of our basement) So begins the process of trying...

Happy Christmas Eve

One of my favorites and a good reminder...

"It's Christmas Eve.   It's the one night of the year when we all act a little nicer.  We smile a little easier.  We share a little more.   For a couple of hours out of the whole year we are the people we always hoped we would be.

It's a miracle...it's really sort of a miracle because it happens every Christmas Eve.   And if you waste that miracle, you're gonna burn for it. I know what I'm talking about.   You have to do something. You have to take a chance and you do have to get involved.    There are people that are having trouble making their miracle happen.  There are people that don't have enough to eat and there people that are cold.   You can go out and say hello to these people.   You can take an old blanket out of the closet and say "here" or make 'em a sandwich and say, "oh by the way...here."

l get it now.  And if you give, then it can happen, then the miracle can happen to you.  Not just the poor and hungry, it's everybody whose gotta have this miracle!   It can happen tonight for you all!  If you believe in this pure thing,  the miracle will happen and you'll want it to happen again tomorrow!   You won't be one of those bastards that says  "Christmas is once a year and it's a fraud." 

It's not!

It can happen every day! You've just got to want that feeling!   And if you like it and you want it, you'll get greedy for it!  You'll want it every day of your life!  It can happen to you!   I believe in it now.   I believe it's gonna happen to me now. I'm ready for it!  It's great.   It's a good feeling.   It's really better than I've felt in a long time.

I'm ready.

Have a Merry Christmas everybody."
