Welcome to our New Home!

Hello everyone!! :wave: I had promised some of you a "tour" through our new home once we've moved in and "sorta" got things figured out! :)

So join me in a "walk-about"! Here goes!

First of all, this is the outside of our home..

So let's go to the front door!

When we first enter, you see different levels...let's check out the upstairs first!
And when we look left, our front sunken living area.. , then the dining room.. then the kitchen, to the back sunken living room To the patio doors outside to the Hot Tub! Wish you were here with us And of course part of the backyard (Can't wait until next year to plant some beautiful flowers!!)
Off the kitchen we have 3 bedrooms, bathroom and a beautiful masterbedroom with a three peice private bathroom! Love it! Here's a photo from the masterbedroom to the kitchen
And of course the basement. We have a cold room (to keep food and of course the wine cool! :giggle:) and huge storage room and an extremely large rec room and There's a hall from here to the boy's rooms and the.... Jaccuzzi Tub! This will come in handy when it's too darn cold to use the Hot Tub! :)

So there you have it! We are so happy here! :) The room we have is absolutely wonderful! And it sure beats my little 2 bedroom apartment. It does seem to take 10x longer to clean, but well worth it! Next Spring will be even better, I have a garden area in the backyard and 6 different flower bed areas. I can't wait to fill them up with beautiful flowers, veggies, and perennials! I'm soooo very :excited:

Thank you for coming on a tour with me into our new home!!

Lots of :love: and :blowkiss: to everyone!!

Wanda :)

Hello!! I'm so happy to be back!! :dance: How I've missed all of you! And I'm sooo terribly sorry for being gone for sooo very long... :(

Alot has happened in my life these past 2 months!

1. Finally packed and moved my belongings into our new home! :clap:
2. Then the unpacking!
3. Then helping William with his previous home and trying to sell it - Yes, it finally sold!
4. Helping him with the move into our new home.
5. And trying to find places to put both of our belongings; and purging the things we both didn't need anymore.
6. Still have a few things to find homes for...
7. Then on holidays for three weeks - needed it after all that work! :faint:
8. Then getting my internet up and running - finally!!
9. Then getting my computer fixed - the moving guys accidently dropped my tower and rattled a few things inside... They DID pay for the repairs.
10. Now I'm at home sick with the "West Nile" virus - darn mosquitoes!! Probably got bit on holidays at the lake... darn!

As you can see - I've been very busy! I almosted :faint: when I was finally able to go on-line and see what's been happening on dA! :omg: I almost have 2,000 deviations to go through (please forgive me if I fave and run! I'll never be able to get caught up otherwise!) And close to 400 messages! Yicks! I will get to them slowly - but please be patient with me - this is sooo overwhelming!

As a note: I would love to thank everyone for their kindness, features and words of concern from the bottom of my heart! :hug: You are all the best friends a girl could ask for! :kiss:

Until later - hope you all have had a wonderful summer!

Lots of :hug:'s and :kiss:es!!

I Didn't Know this... Did you?

Who ever looks at the end of your aluminum foil box?


I've been using aluminum foil for more years than I care to remember. Great stuff, but sometimes it can be a pain. You know, like when you are in the middle of doing something and you try to pull some foil out and the roll comes out of the box. Then you have to put the roll back in the box and start over. The darn roll always comes out at the wrong time.


Well, I would like to share this with you. Yesterday I went to throw out an empty Reynolds foil box and for some reason I turned it and looked at the end of the box. And written on the end it said, "Press here to lock end". Right there on the end of the box is a tab to lock the roll in place. How long has this little locking tab been there? I then looked at a generic brand of aluminum foil and it had one, too. I then looked at a box of Saran wrap and it had one too! I can't count the number of times the Saran warp roll has jumped out when I was trying to cover something up.

I checked the foil boxes in my cupboard and the generic box of foil did have a perforated area to push in, but it did not explain what the perforations were for. One box didn't have any perforations or lock of any sort ( guess I shouldn't have bought the really cheap brand!)


I'm sharing this with my friends that did not know this. If you all ready know this, Please don't comment and and make me feel dumber than I already feel. If you didn't know this, let me know so I won't feel so dumb. I hope I'm not the only person that didn't know about this. =p
