Y'all are and incredible and terrific bunch of mods. Big Meanie, I adore you. So I ask, with all due respect, please consider reinstating our wonderful Deano to your team. I don't know what I can offer up to help you hear my heartfelt plea. If it would help, I'll try to be gooder. I am...

And dat cowboy hat dusted off. The Grand Opening of my forum is imminent, and everyone is invited to a rowdy party to celebrate! Bear in mind that it will be in the low rent district way down on the seedy side of town at the very bottom of the list, so you got to be careful :roflmao:

Matching fabrics and kitty can be a nice interior design touch :) Do you have any of your own 'Decorating with Critters' tips? Please post pix....

I'm thinking of getting one of those 'personal forums', but what that means is that people who only visit chit-chat as opposed to 'new posts' would not get to participate in my posts. So I am curious to see exactly how people who come to this site choose what they want to read. Do you have a...

I'm wallpapering today and it's da pits, feeling very sorry for myself. So I got to thinking of the ickiest home chores. What are yours?

I do not usually have allergies but have had them lately and have been taking this wonderful (for me) medication, the generic form of Zyrtec. Doesn't make me sleepy like some cold meds do, totally works. When I take this med though, I notice that I have disturbing dreams. Can't remember all...

No snickering, please :roflmao: I am repapering the living room. I have a very large, ornate, heavy mirror, when I took it down to do the wallpaper project, I saw that one of the 'picturehanger' hardwares was slipping. The mirror sits just aove the sofa and would really do some damage were...

It's not going so easy. After working full time and going to school nights and weekends, I'm a couch tater. But, no more. And hopefully butt, no more. So I've been walking in the mornings, and doing garden stuff and playing with the dogs in the evening which is stuff I like to do. I cannot...
