Space Ship Update!

Guess what? Today was a wonderful day! This morning, after breakfast,Tony, Aaron and I worked on my Space Ship! ‘Mission Impossible’ is now nearly complete and it looks absolutely beautiful! I cannot wait to show y’all the pictures once it is finished and decorated. Sad news—still no Spirit mattress, but it should be landing here this week—I hope. When Kinky gets back from his East Coast Tour, next week, he will be shocked when he sees it all decorated!

Around 12:30 today, we wrapped things up outside and came inside the trailer, to find that Drew had called and he and Renee were thinking about coming out to see the Space Ship, and go into Outer Space, for the very first time, with us, since moving back to Kerrville. Tony immediately called them back. In less than two minutes, it was decided that we would meet at Luby’s to start the countdown celebration to Drew’s birthday on Wednesday the 27th! Drew will be seven-ish in dog years!

Having lunch with Renee and Drew, was just what the doctor had ordered for me! We laughed and laughed, throughout our entire meal and then some more—out in the parking lot! And, that was exactly what I had needed, since being so upset and depressed about Danny dying. Renee and Drew had cured me! I am now back in the saddle, again and ready to enjoy life, again, and I am counting every blessing that I have!

Following our super fun lunch, Tony and I went to Home Depot, then we went to the craft store, so I could buy some material for the big cushion, that I am making for the Space Ship’s ‘big room.’ Then we came home.

When we arrived, it had just started to rain, thank goodness, and we came inside. We received about a half inch of rain and then the sun came out. I then went out to the Space Ship and began working on tiling my kitchen countertop!

My good friend, Cindy Pickard, who has just been nominated for her and her son, Andy’s—documentary— “The Eighth Fire” by Native American Music Awards—had given me her leftover tile to use on my countertop! And, I am nearly finished with it! I ran out of tile and will get more at Lowes. Congrats to Cindy and Andy! I love ‘The Eighth Fire!” It is awesome!

Well, it is starting to thunder here and I need to wind this blog up, so I can unplug everything.

P.S. Last Thursday, we rescued a new dog from Kerrville, which I have named Hannah Montana! She is 19 months old, spayed, all shots and the cutest, sweetest little wannabe dachshund! Everyone please meet Hannah Montana!
