Meet Jacqueline

Well I've been rather busy these past two weeks. The kitchen cabinets are expected soon so Jack and I have been working in the kitchen. He has all the pipes in for the plumbing and two new electrical outlets installed. One of them took all day since it is on an outside wall. No plugs in this house are on outside walls since it is a double brick house and has nothing (and I mean nothing) between the walls, just back to back brick! He had to drill through the brick to even run the wiring up!
In the meantime I have been gradually emptying cupboards and trying to find places to put everything. We have a make shift cupboard for all the dry foods and canned goods standing in the front hall. And another item full of stuff too backed up against the front door LOL
I also have to empty one end of the Heights and take down my desk (it's a corner unit) so they can get to the window! Of course Lofton has been all packed up due to having the solar light and the solar fan installed. Gradually I am taking stuff and residents back up there. Oh it gets warm during mid afternoon but not that gasping heat like before. And it helps that is has rained every damn day! LOL


So tonight I decided to take a little break and play a bit. Here is Jacqueline, Miss January who I bought back on July 25th. She has finally been released from her plastic prison. Of course she immediately wanted to wear jeans "like the other girls" were.








I found her a red jacket which is too big for her tiny frame but she is happy anyway. She wants to be warm when she takes her little dog for a walk to Dolton Beach. Hah! Wait til I tell her she's going up to Lofton instead!

Our 3rd biggest ever jackpot of $43 million was won yesterday. Not by me of course! Fortunately it's being split by a group so that is good, as everyone gets a piece of the pie.
Oh and I have been moved to a much newer booth in my mall. We have 3 there. It's heaven! It's on the second level of the mall and right under a glass roof. I think I will enjoy it up there.
Well time to get supper ready. Hope you all have a great weekend.
