New glasses saga continues

I am just playing the waiting game now.  I am holding for a call from Illinois Eye Express; hopefully they will tell me the new frames I wanted are in so I can go get new specs.  I can't wait.  I have really liked the ones I had but I lost the sunglasses clip that goes to them.  For some reason, the price of those jumped up so high I can't afford them now, so I am getting Transition lenses.  I hope I like them as much.

You can go home again

Here lately, I have been very slowly redoing some of the decor in my apartment.  I am currently working on my bedroom.  Just last week, I bought a new comforter bed set that was on sale at Kmart.  It's one of those "bed in a bag" type sets, although it's not called that.  The new comforter is black and gray; best of all, it's reversible for a fresh new look any time.  For quite some time I have been wanting a headboard to go with my bed, so I was looking around to see what options I have, when I found a great site that sells western furniture . This site sells log and various wood furnitures in different styles, such as western and rustic. Their wood furniture is absolutely beautiful and built to last. While looking for a headboard, I found one that I absolutely loved right away. For my bed, I require a queen size headboard and I found this one . It is made of red oak, which is both sturdy and long lasting as well as very pretty. The design of the headboard

The big day is coming!

Things are really heating up

It has been cold, colder and downright miserably cold here in Illinois these past few months. Just a couple of days ago, it actually snowed a little. In April!! At times like these I wish I was still living in Arizona. One thing I never suffered from when I lived in Arizona was the cold. In fact, most people thought something was very wrong with me when I didn't wear a jacket in December. It was 55 at the time. In Illinois, that's good camping weather. In Arizona, people are complaining about how cold it is. I lived in Phoenix, Arizona and at the time, there were records being set, such as 128 degrees. Now that's hot. Other places in the Phoenix area were a little cooler, such as Scottsdale. However much I don't personally like to be extremely hot, it is true that 128 degrees in Arizona is significantly different than 98 degrees in Illinois. In Scottsdale, it would feel like stepping into a giant oven while in Illinois it would feel like stepping into a giant
